Mission Statement: The Skokomish Watershed Action Team will work towards common ecological and economic goals in the Skokomish River watershed through collaborative basin restoration projects.
Principles and Goals
*The group will recognize and support projects throughout the basin.
*We will concentrate our action on Forest Service lands above the floodplain while ensuring collaboration throughout the basin.
*Forest Service employees participate in the group in an ex-officio, informational role.
*The group recognizes and respects the sovereign rights of the Skokomish Tribe.
*The group further recognizes and respects the land management rights and responsibilities of the US Forest Service and other basin landowners; our job is to work within tribal sovereignty and other landowner responsibilities to accomplish common goals.
*We will work to enhance the economic and environmental sustainability of the Skokomish watershed recognizing best available science, technology, community values and other means as appropriate.
*The group will seek, coordinate and disseminate information about ongoing restorations projects in the basin.
*The group will examine all appropriate funding mechanisms to accomplish restoration projects.
*We will maintain a broad perspective as to how Skokomish basin projects affect Hood Canal and the Olympic Peninsula, and vice-versa.
*The group will be inclusive of all interested parties; we will identify common ground, using a consensus-based process.
*The group at all times will respect individuals and the interests they represent. No interest group will be penalized if they don't agree on any given decision; no one interest group may veto a project.
*The collaborative group will work with the US Forest Service and other landowners to identify, review, fund and accomplish appropriate restoration projects.
*The group will work with basin landowners to identify appropriate monitoring methods and funding.
