Puget Sound Local Management Plan Funding

The MRA funding is a source of public health monies provided by the state legislature to implement on-site sewage system management plans as required by Chapter 70A.110 RCW and to develop or enhance electronic data systems.

This funding is available to the twelve Puget Sound Counties. Each county uses this money to supplement local funding. To learn more about the programs, read Puget Sound Local On-site Sewage Management Plans - A Report to the Legislature, 2008 Progress Report (PDF).

This webpage is intended as a resource to help facilitate information sharing as the 12 Puget Sound local health jurisdictions implement their on-site management plans and marine recovery area strategies.
