This advisory group has been disbanded or is no longer active.
In 2021, WDFW formed the Ad-Hoc Coastal Steelhead Advisory Group to inform the development of a Coastal Steelhead Proviso Implementation Plan to protect steelhead for each river system of Grays Harbor, Willapa Bay, and coastal Olympic Peninsula, as required by the Washington Legislature in the 2021-23 budget.
The 12-member ad-hoc committee reflected a broad cross-section of the coastal steelhead guides, research scientists, sport anglers, business owners, conservationists, and others who are committed to coastal steelhead recovery. The Ad-Hoc Coastal Steelhead Advisory Group concluded its work at the end of 2022, and WDFW submitted the ensuing plan to the Legislature. For more information, see our January 2023 blog post.
More information about coastal steelhead management is available at wdfw.wa.gov/coastal-steelhead.
