HB 2275: Habitat conservation program

Expanding the criteria for habitat conservation programs.

Summary

  • Adds two categories to the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program. Categories for farmlands preservation and riparian protection are added to the existing categories for outdoor recreation and habitat conservation.
  • Changes are made to the statutory formula for funding allocations made under the program.
  • Requires the Department of Natural Resources and the Department of Fish and Wildlife to make a payment in lieu of taxes and another amount for control of noxious weeds on property acquired through the Habitat Conservation Account, and all state agencies acquiring land under the Riparian Protection Account must make these payments. The State Treasurer makes these payments directly to counties. The counties must distribute the payment in lieu of taxes to appropriate junior taxing districts and school districts.
