Status of Biodiversity in King County

Status of Biodiversity in King County

2008 Status of Biodiversity in King County Report - Washington State
This document forms part of a set of biodiversity reports produced by participant cities of the Local Action for Biodiversity (LAB) Project (external link). It represents a critical starting point: a status quo assessment of biodiversity and its management in King County. This report is the foundation not only of the long-term plans that King County will develop to enhance, protect, and develop its biodiversity, but it also helps to collectively form the basis for the development of a highly effective global urban biodiversity initiative.
