Shorelines of Statewide Significance. The Shoreline Management Act designates certain shorelines as shorelines of statewide significance. These are generally described as including portions of Puget Sound and other marine water bodies, rivers west of the Cascade range that have a mean annual flow of 1,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) or greater, rivers east of the Cascade range that have a mean annual flow of 200 cfs or greater, and freshwater lakes with a surface area of 1,000 acres or more (RCW 90.58.030). The following are shorelines of statewide significance in Xxxxx County: 1. Marine waters and shorelands (200 feet landward of the OHWM) of Hood Canal; 2. Marine waters of South Puget Sound seaward from extreme low tide; 3. Freshwater of Lake Xxxxxxx including shorelands; and 4. Skokomish River (downstream from the confluence of its North and South Forks) including shorelands. In determining that certain shorelines are of statewide significance, the Shoreline Management Act also determined that the interests of all of the people of the state shall be considered in the management of these shorelines. Because the shorelines of statewide significance of Xxxxx County are a major resource from which all people in the state derive benefit, the SMP gives preference to uses that favor preservation and protection of the natural character and ecology of the shoreline and uses that increase public access and recreational opportunities. Specifically, RCW 90.58.020 gives priority to uses in the following order of preference: 1. Recognize and protect the statewide interest over local interest; 2. Preserve the natural character of the shoreline; 3. Result in long-term over short-term benefit; 4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline; 5. Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the shorelines; 6. Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shoreline; 7. Provide for any other element as defined in RCW 90.58.100 deemed appropriate or necessary.

To provide equally effective alternate access, alternates are not required to produce the identical result or level of achievement for persons with and without disabilities, but must afford persons with disabilities equal opportunity to obtain the same result, to gain the same benefit, or to reach the same level of achievement, in the most integrated setting appropriate to the person’s needs. b) The Plan for New Content must include sufficient quality assurance procedures, backed by adequate personnel and financial resources, for full implementation.
