DESCRIPTION
As written in the Washington State RCW, it is the task of each Lead Entity (LE) to develop and submit an annual project list to propose for funding through the Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB), and on even years, a second list for consideration of Puget Sound Acquisition and Restoration (PSAR) funds. Each list must be prioritized and approved by the Nisqually Salmon Habitat Work Group (HWG) and Nisqually River Council (the LE's technical and citizens committees) and submitted to the WA Recreation and Conservation Office for review and funding consideration. Each LE must have in place an approved process by which they prioritize potential projects that directly reflects their recovery plans.
