Nearshore Assessment and Priorities (NEAP) Story Map

As part of the Skagit Shoreline Need Assessment project, the NEAP Story Map was developed to walk you through how and why this assessment was designed, what data was used and how to interpret the prioritization results

Nearshore Assessment and Priorities (NEAP) Tool

As part of the Shoreline Needs Assessment Project, the NEAP Tool is intended to provide useful marine-based data and assessments of any shoreline area of interest in Skagit County.

Olympia Oyster Restoration Story Map

The Olympia Oyster Restoration project is one of Skagit MRC's biggest success stories. A Story Map for the Olympia Restoration project was created to help tell our story and provide more detailed information on this important MRC project, including historical context, reseeding efforts, challenges, surprises and the current success of this program. The Story Map was built from the MRC's Shoreline Needs Assessment performed in 2024, which resulted in a new web-based interactive tool to better understand the health of Skagit shorelines. This interactive tool includes, not only identification of new high priority nearshore restoration needs, but also provides information on past and current MRC shoreline projects, including the Olympia Oyster Restoration project.
