(1) A program for salmon and steelhead recovery is established in
Clark, Cowlitz, Lewis, Skamania, and Wahkiakum counties within the
habitat areas classified as the lower Columbia evolutionarily
significant units by the federal national marine fisheries service.
The department is responsible for developing and overseeing the
implementation of the habitat portion of the salmon and steelhead
recovery plan and is empowered to receive and disburse funds for the
salmon and steelhead recovery initiatives. The department of natural
resources shall be the lead entity responsible for fulfilling the
requirements and exercising powers under this chapter.
(2)(a) The department shall participate in the development of a
habitat recovery plan to implement its responsibilities under (b) of
this subsection. The department shall consider local watershed efforts
and activities as well as habitat conservation plans in the development
and implementation of the recovery plan. Any of the participating
counties may continue its own efforts for restoring steelhead habitat.
Nothing in this section limits the authority of units of local
government to enter into interlocal agreements under chapter 39.34 RCW
or any other provision of law.
(b) The department is responsible for the development of a lower
Columbia salmon and steelhead habitat recovery plan and for
coordinating and monitoring the implementation of the plan. The
department will submit all future plans and amendments to plans to the
governor's salmon recovery office for the incorporation of hatchery,
harvest, and hydropower components of the statewide salmon recovery
strategy for all submissions to the national marine fisheries service.
In developing and implementing the habitat recovery plan, the
department will work with appropriate federal and state agencies,
tribal governments, local governments, and the public to make sure
hatchery, harvest, and hydropower components receive consideration in
context with the habitat component. The department may work in
cooperation with the state and the national marine fisheries service to
modify the plan, or to address habitat for other aquatic species that
may be subsequently listed under the federal endangered species act.
The department may not exercise authority over land or water within the
individual counties or otherwise preempt the authority of any units of
local government.
(c) The department shall prioritize as appropriate and approve
projects and programs related to the recovery of lower Columbia river
salmon and steelhead runs, including the funding of those projects and
programs, and coordinate local government efforts as prescribed in the
recovery plan. The department shall establish criteria for funding
projects and programs based upon their likely value in salmon and
steelhead recovery. The department may consider local economic impact
among the criteria, but jurisdictional boundaries and factors related
to jurisdictional population may not be considered as part of the
criteria.
(d) The department shall assess the factors for decline along each
tributary basin in the lower Columbia. The department is encouraged to
take a stream-by-stream approach in conducting the assessment which
utilizes state and local expertise, including volunteer groups,
interest groups, and affected units of local government.
(3) The department has the authority to hire and fire staff,
including an executive director, enter into contracts, accept grants
and other moneys, disburse funds, make recommendations to cities and
counties about potential code changes and the development of programs
and incentives upon request, pay all necessary expenses, and may choose
a fiduciary agent. The department shall report on its progress on a
biennial basis to the legislative bodies of the five participating
counties and the state natural resources-related agencies. The
department shall prepare a final report at the conclusion of the
program describing its efforts and successes in developing and
implementing the lower Columbia salmon and steelhead recovery plan.
The final report shall be transmitted to the appropriate committees of
the legislature, the legislative bodies of the participating counties,
and the state natural resources-related agencies.
(4) The program terminates on July 1, 2010.
(5) For purposes of this section, "evolutionarily significant unit"

unit of an aquatic species listed or proposed for listing as a
threatened or endangered species under the federal endangered species
