Executive Summary Washington’s state parks provide a myriad of benefits to both urban and rural environments and nearby residents. Green spaces within state parks provide direct benefits to the populations living in close proximity. For example, the forests within state parks provide outdoor recreational opportunities, and they also help to store water and control flooding during heavy rainfalls, improve air quality, and regulate the local climate. -

THE CURRENT STATUS OF ENVIRONMENTAL INTERPRETATION IN WASHINGTON STATE PARKS ON PUGET SOUND by Holly Haley A Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Environmental Studies The Evergreen State College March 2015 ©2015 by Holly Haley. All rights reserved. This Thesis for the Master of Environmental Studies Degree by Holly Haley has been approved for The Evergreen State College by ________________________ Jean MacGregor Member of the Faculty ________________________ Date The Current Status of Environmental Interpretation in Washington State Parks on Puget Sound Holly Haley The Puget Sound Initiative (PSI) is a large-scale federal and state restoration effort to improve the health of Puget Sound. Among many broad-scale initiatives involving Washington State and local governments and tribes, the PSI has identified 24 State Parks on Puget Sound as sites to model Sound friendly development with restored shorelines and advanced stormwater and wastewater treatment facilities. The lack of public awareness of Puget Sound’s eroding health in the communities surrounding the Sound has been identified as a major barrier to gaining the support needed for successful restoration and protection of watershed natural resources. This thesis describes the potential of an environmental interpretation component of the PSI to educate and encourage environmentally responsible behavior in the millions of citizens who visit Washington State Parks on Puget Sound. It also provides an assessment of the current status of environmental interpretation in those parks. Current research suggests environmental interpretation in public parks can be an important and effective natural resource management tool. Analysis reveals that environmental interpretation is a stated natural resource management policy objective of the PSI and Washington State Parks agency and specific interpretive plans have been created to showcase the “Puget Sound Friendly” wastewater and shoreline development improvements in Washington State Parks. -

Natural Hazards on Whidbey Island
Natural Hazards on Whidbey Island Protect and prepare your family and your home — a guide for surviving disasters caused by earthquakes, landslides, wildland fires, tsunamis, and windstorms Island County, Washington Department of Emergency Management Digital elevation map of Island County (Jessica Larson) ii Dealing with Natural Hazards on Whidbey Island This is a guide to the natural hazards that could affect you, your family, and your property. It offers a brief description of the ways you can prepare your home and family to survive disasters caused by earthquakes, landslides, wildland fires, tsunamis, and windstorms. Power outages caused by windstorms during the winter of 2006-2007 — as well as numerous other events in prior and more recent years — have made most residents of Whidbey Island amply aware of the difficulties of being without light, heat, water, and the ability to prepare meals or use health-related equipment. Although most of us have experienced being without power for less than a week, we have still been able to travel to a grocery, a hospital, or the mainland. Friends across the island could help each other. But what if there were a major natural disaster that cut off the island from the mainland and we were entirely on our own for two or three weeks? A truly large storm or an earthquake could destroy or damage docks at the Clinton and Coupeville ferries systems and seriously compromise footings of the Deception Pass bridge, disrupting delivery of food, water, fuel, emergency services, and many other vitally necessary elements of our Island life. These realities are even more evident recently as we have had record rains, experienced more landslides, and observed the damage suffered by the islands of New Zealand and Japan. -
