Vashon-Maury Island Groundwater Protection Committee

Vashon-Maury Island Groundwater Protection CommitteeThe Vashon Maury Island Groundwater Protection Committee (VMI GWPC) serves the Vashon-Maury Island community (see a map of the VMI GWMA ). The Committee began its work in late 2001 and has continued to meet since that time. In 2004 the Committee recommended that the County Council extend the term of the Committee beyond the December 2004 sunset date. The Council approved this extension (ordinance 15082) at the end of 2004.

The Vashon-Maury Island Groundwater Protection Committee is working to protect groundwater in part by implementing the Groundwater Management Plan and Watershed Plan as summarized in the Watershed Plan Implementation Matrix. The VMI GWPC summarizes their perspective on the Water Resources Evaluation project Phase II model use, its limitations, and future work that needs to be done in this overview. July 2010 (1,034 Kb)
