DESCRIPTION
Develop an implementation strategy for SMP compliance. Island County will develop an implementation strategy for SMP compliance that includes the following elements: a) develop an accurate evaluation of shoreline health that meets the state requirement for "no net loss" and SMP effectiveness based on guidance from the Department of Ecology; b) retain a consultant to set a baseline percentage of shoreline armoring and percent vegetative cover that will be used to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate shoreline health status, trends and compliance monitoring; c) conduct annual county-wide shoreline evaluations for trend analysis.
