Our Goals:
Several new parks and hundreds of miles of shoreline protection
Two years ago, The Alliance for Puget Sound Shorelines embarked on an ambitions plan:
-
To create 10 new waterfront parks or natural areas.
-
Restore 100 miles of shorelines through on-the-ground restoration.
-
Protect 1,000 miles of shoreline.
The
Alliance has made significant progress toward these goals, and is hard at work to complete them in 2008. This is made possible through civic and political support;
and implementing our on-the-ground restoration and protection plan.
So far, three parks are complete at Tarboo-Dabob Bay,
Pilot Point and Taylor Bay, and eight other potential park sites have been identified.
Restoration is complete on nearly 38 miles of shoreline, and the Alliance has enhanced
policies directly protecting 872 miles of shoreline.
All three organizations have considerable experience and expertise in
fundraising, partnership-building, advocacy, science-based restoration
and protection, and public policy. And because they have already
spent months working together, the three groups are poised to begin
identifying shoreline sites that have high conservation value and
can be restored, purchased or protected by other means.
