Table notes:
1) Data needs to be amended to reduce numbers by no of days of ‘clock stoppage.’ Currently DCD is unable to run this
report (issue being researched).
2) T 17 ‘Use Table,’ processes and permit types changed in Dec 2006 with adoption of Comp Plan.
3) HE Variances (HEVar) have loosely been filtered to exclude Critical Areas Variances CVar). However, a total filtering
would take more time. Currently, the two application types are often grouped and reported together. (This practice will
change.)
Program:
Description:
Environmental Programs (formerly Natural Resources and Environmental Review)
The Program serves as the County’s lead for environmental planning, project development and review for critical
areas, shorelines, forests and salmon habitat. The Division works cooperatively with permit applicants, cities,
tribes, and other public and private groups, agencies and individuals to conserve, protect and responsibly develop
in environmentally sensitive areas. The Division administers key laws, programs and projects to address Kitsap’s
abundant saltwater shorelines and important salmon watersheds through education, outreach, and volunteer
efforts in addition to regulatory review.
Initiatives:
1. Support the County’s mission to ensure environmentally sound communities and to accomplish permit review and
decision within code established time lines
2. Maintain and expand grant funded initiatives to diversify sources and approaches to plan, manage and protect
important County environmental resources
3. Identify and initiate opportunities for streamlining shoreline and environmental permit processes as appropriate and
in consultation with other divisions and agencies
