We are excited to announce that the sector analyses final reports are available on the MSP Projects webpage. The reports describe current and potential future activities of marine sectors along the Washington coast and assess the potential conflicts with the development of other uses. Each report synthesizes information from publicly available sources and draws on insights from industry experts to highlight critical issues affecting each sector.
Most of the final reports are avaliable for these marine sectors:
- Aquaculture;
- Commercial and recreational fishing;
- Marine renewable energy;
- Recreation and tourism;
- Shipping.
The sector analyses identify key remaining questions, data quality issues, and data gaps which will be used as a guide for further development of the marine spatial plan.
