In 2021, WDFW formed the Ad-Hoc Coastal Steelhead Advisory Group to inform the development of a Coastal Steelhead Proviso Implementation Plan to protect steelhead for each river system of Grays Harbor, Willapa Bay, and coastal Olympic Peninsula, as required by the Washington Legislature in the 2021-23 budget. The Department will submit the ensuing plan to the Legislature by the end of 2022.
The 12-member ad-hoc committee reflects a broad cross-section of the coastal steelhead guides, research scientists, sport anglers, business owners, conservationists, and others who are committed to coastal steelhead recovery. The group will meet virtually in 2022 with meetings planned for February, March, April, June, August, September, and November. More information about coastal steelhead management is available at wdfw.wa.gov/coastal-steelhead.
At the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, we celebrate diverse individuals who bring a wide range of perspectives. All are welcome to participate in our processes regardless of race, color, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, status as a veteran, and basis of disability.
