Summary

The council approved a comment letter drafted by the county’s marine resources committee to Transport Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan public comment period, and discussed broader dissemination and sign-on by the council.

The San Juan County Council voted on April 21 to approve a comment letter from the county’s Marine Resources Committee addressing Transport Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan public comment period.

Council members and staff said the letter was prepared to meet a tight submission window and that broader dissemination to Canadian officials and partner agencies was under consideration. One councilor asked to clarify how the letter might be used and whether the chair should sign on behalf of the full council; staff said the intention was to have the county’s input on the record and to coordinate any broader outreach.

The motion to approve the correspondence was seconded and approved by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.
