Info

harbour porpoises, have been sighted here. Contact Refuge Manager, Kevin Ryan, to get a listing of rare, threatened or endangered species that use the Island and adjacent waters: kevin_ryan@fws.gov - Many of these birds use Admiralty Inlet as a feeding area, diving deep for prey speciues. Their young feed in these waters before migrating out to sea or to other habitats. - Murre and rhinoceros auklet feeding assemblages (with redneck grebes, cormorants, marbled murrelets, and others) are definitely mobile up and down the areas from East Marrowstone County Park to Marrowstone Point and Point Wilson in Admiralty Inlet. [Reports of these sitings in these locations are common among bird specialists living in the area.] Nysewander of WDFW is an excellent resource for birds assemblages in Admiralty Inlet. He will be able to let you know which ones are listed as rare, threatened or endangered. - I'm not sure if deep water studies of salmon foraging and migration behaviors in Admiralty Inlet have been conducted. Wild Fish Conservancy (Micah Waite) has been looking at nearshore habitats along the west shore of Whidbey Island recently. I suggest you check with WDFW and NOAA (Kurt Fresh) to see if they may have conducted some earlier studies, or may be doing some survey work now. There are generalized references relating to migration in the PS Chinook Recovery Plan and in the Summer Chum Conservation Initiative.

c. Where can Snohomish County PUD obtain this information? City of Port Townsend for shoreline management plan DNR for Aquatics lease State Parks for tideland information d. Based on the specific resources listed in 2a, are you aware of any specific issues pertaining to the identified resource area(s)? Yes (Please list specific issues below.) No Resource Area and Specific Issue: - We have Underwater Marine Park Reserve in the Inlet - Marine Science Center located on the dock at Fort Worden uses Admiralty Inlet for education purposes and collections for research that provides information for state wide monitoring for clean water initiatives - Marine Science Center building on the pier houses an aquarium supplied by seawater collected offshore of its building adjacent to Admiralty Inlet. - Tidelands with artificial reefs See comments under 2 b. e. Based on the resource issues identified in 2d, are you aware of any potential studies or information needs associated with the identified issues? Yes (Please list potential studies or information needs below.) No Potential Studies or Information Needs: Studies were completed by Dept. of Ecology for tidelands City of Port Townsend - surveys conducted for information for the shoreline management plan See comments under 2 b. f. Please indicate whether there is a specific representative you wish to designate for a potential follow-up contact by a Snohomish County PUD representative for the resource area(s) checked above: 3
