The Washington Department of Ecology Shorelines and Environmental Assistance Program is responsible for managing Shoreline Master Program (SMP) updates and providing technical and policy assistance to local communities. The Department of Ecology provided these maps of the general location of channel migration zones for WRIA 20 shoreline streams in Clallam County. Funding was provided through Shoreline Master Program grant. This feature is the data driven page layer showing the location of each data page |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 8 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>The Washington State Shoreline Management Act (SMA) and administrative codes require that communities identify the general location of channel migration zones (CMZs) and regulate development within these areas on shoreline streams (WAC 173-26-201(3) (c) (vii)). Shoreline streams are defined as those with a mean annual flow equal or greater than 20 cfs. The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) developed a planning-level CMZ delineation (pCMZ) method to support local communities’ updates and implementation of the SMA requirements. The method was used by Ecology to map CMZs for shoreline communities. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P /><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
