Pre-registration is required for this event.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and its Orca Regulations Communications Advisory (ORCA) Group seeks
input from the Salish Sea recreational boater community to inform its education, outreach, and communications work related to Southern Resident killer whales (SRKW) and related vessel regulations (as directed by the Washington State Legislature in the 2023-24 Senate Bill 5371). Your perspectives will ground this important work and lead to more effective communication that will
ultimately support SRKW recovery.
