06/07/2006: "Gregoire's Work Group Forum in FH"

Governor Chris Gregoire's Ocean Policy Work Group is conducting a series of public forums designed to identify the ways in which state government can work more closely with coastal communities to address marine environment issues.

The Ocean Policy Work Group was formed in August 2005 in response to a legislative request to describe the conditions of the state's ocean resources and their contribution to Washington's character. The group will recommend measures to protect oceanic and coastal resources and improve ocean policy and resource management.

The sixth meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 7, at 6:00 p.m. at the University of Washington's Labs in Friday Harbor.
