WRIA 17: Setting it straight

WRIA 17

Water Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) 17 is one of Washington's WRIAs as defined by the Department of Ecology. As a result of concerns about the quality of science being used by Ecology to regulate human activities in the Quilcene-Snow Water Resource Inventory Area, this online resource exists to provide information for the Jefferson and Clallam County residents who live in WRIA 17 to better understand the issues and advocate for a more reasonable approach toward resource management.

The following article correction appeared in the March 31, 2006 Jefferson County edition of the Peninsula Daily News.

We would like to thank the Peninsula Daily News for making this correction to an article that had initially caused concern among many Marrowstone Island residents, PUD officials, and other members of the community.

Setting it straight
The state Department of Ecology is not requiring any additional water right or permit to provide water for a Marrowstone Island pipeline. Ecology Director Jay Manning, in appearances in Port Angeles on Wednesday, said Ecology would be monitoring the Jefferson County Public Utility District water source for impacts on the Chimacum basin that water for Marrowstone Island might cause.
A story Thursday on Page A1 of the Jefferson County edition and Page A6 on the Clallam County edition incorrectly stated that an additional permit would be required.
