To protect the nearshore habitats and species of puget sound
Sound Action is a Puget Sound watchdog group working to protect vital nearshore habitat and species.
| Description | Grants | Expenses |
|---|---|---|
| Sound Action tenaciously protects and defends nearshore habitats in Puget Sound through its work as a well-respected environmental watchdog organization. We review all Puget Sound-based nearshore development permits issued by the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), taking legal action when WDFW-issued permits allow habitat loss or violate state law. Our work results in both short and long term habit protection, and ensures that critical environmental protection laws are strictly enforced. | $123,748 | - |
