Dear Interested Parties,
I am emailing to update you on the latest news about the Washington State Legislature’s consideration of the Puget Sound Acquisition and Restoration (PSAR) program. As a reminder, the
Governor's budget released in mid-December proposed $50M to support 2023-25 PSAR projects. The 2023-25 PSAR fact sheet <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDAsInVyaSI

level and the federal funding received by project #8 (Thomas’ Eddy).
The House and Senate recently released their Capital Budget proposals.
* The Senate proposes funding PSAR at $54.057M, nearly enough to fully fund projects #1-7, but not #9. The Senate’s current proposal is reflected in this document <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1N

* The House proposed funding PSAR at $53.941M and directed funding of project #9 before project #6-8. This initial proposal was quickly amended. The updated House proposal is to increase
PSAR funding to $59.165M and to restore the ranked order of the project list. The House’s current proposal is reflected in this document <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX

Duckabush (which is proposed to be funded as its own line item in the House Capital Budget) and #8 Thomas Eddy (which has received federal funding).
* The two documents linked above are called “LEAP documents”. PSAR has not previously been associated with a LEAP document. LEAP documents are used by the legislature to articulate the
specific projects and line items that can be funded with dollars appropriated to a given capital program. We are still learning about the pros and cons of this new development but understand
that it may limit flexibility related to returned funds and cost overruns.
* The next step is for House and Senate Capital budget leaders to meet and negotiate the differences in their respective budget proposals. Their goal is to achieve agreement by the end
of the 2023 Legislative Session on April 23.
I hope this update helps you to stay informed during the fast-paced legislative budgeting process. Thank you for the good work you do communicating the importance of PSAR and all the
Puget Sound capital programs.
