This grant is for supporting the pivotal role of a Tribal Implementation Lead within the collaborative efforts to protect and restore Puget Sound. For over 30 years, the Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 320 National Estuary Program (NEP) has fostered a partnership involving EPA, Washington State, Tribes, and other stakeholders. The NEP establishes a “Management Conference” to bring together diverse representatives, including Tribes, federal agencies, and local governments, to guide restoration efforts. This funding specifically aims to strengthen tribal leadership and ensure their vital contributions are integrated into the Puget Sound Action Agenda’s implementation, promoting comprehensive and effective estuary management.
