Then on February 19th, we had a BCDC meeting and I wanted to share this State of the Estuary fact sheet with you.
The State of the Estuary is a,
It's been a conference that's held every other year for at least 30 years, and the idea is literally to say, you know, what is the state of the estuary?
How clean is it?
How are we meeting all this?
We do a lot of monitoring, and how are we doing on that monitoring?
And so this is, every two years, they've had a conference, and they put out this report.
Well, now we're moving into sort of the modern age, and it's an interactive webinar
uh... web page but this is kind of the fact sheet associated with it and i thought it was great attractive and on it's kind of fun to see for instance
Do you all know that it's actually safe to swim in the bay?
I mean, when most of us moved here, that wasn't true, but it's true now, and that's a cool thing.
It's too cold, mind you, but anyway, that's not the problem.
Okay, so I wanted to share that, and then I also want to,
At BCDC, we're working on new permitting guidelines to modernize our processes, just like we're doing here, so that we can do a better job and make it easier for staff and permittees.
And since BCDC is a state agency, we have to go through a very specific, lengthy process to do that.
The rules we approve have to be approved by the state attorney's general office, so that will take a while.
But still in all, it's a good thing that we're working on because we really need to have people do a lot of projects like we are doing
to promote sea level rise protection.
And the permitting for them is really onerous.
I mean, it's just very, very hard.
