Snohomish County 2024 Comprehensive Plan Update SEPA scoping comment period open through November 30, 2021

 

Everett, Wash., November 2, 2021 – Snohomish County is accepting comments on the scope of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the 2024 Comprehensive Plan Update as required by the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). The comment period is open through November 30, 2021. 

 

The purpose of the SEPA scoping phase is to ask the community, agencies, and tribes about the environmental review topics, alternatives, and mitigation measures that should be explored in the County’s Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

 

The SEPA scoping notice can be accessed in:
