Water Access

In 2007 the Washington Legislature approved $100 million in funding the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program (WWRP).

WWRP grants fund public access to beaches, lakes, and rivers for fishing, swimming and non-motorized boating.  At least 75% of funds in this category are for for acquisition; 25% or less are for development. 

Since 1990, the Coalition has secured $44 million in state grants plus $53 million in local matches for 94 Water Access sites.
