Projects approved for inclusion in the pilot program are not subject to environmental review (i.e., the requirements of RCW 43.21C.030(2)) under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) and are not required to obtain local or state permits or approvals other than the permit issued by WDFW, except permits minimally necessary as a requirement of participation in a federal program (RCW 77.55.480(3) and (5)). This program was established by law in 2021 and will end June 30, 2025.
