County receives $10 million grant for floodplain management

EVERETT — Snohomish County announced on Tuesday it received a $10 million grant from Washington’s Department of Ecology for continued floodplain management work.

The grant comes from the state’s Floodplains by Design program and will support 13 projects throughout the county.

“We’re grateful to the State of Washington for supporting this important work,” Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers wrote in a July 1 press release. “Through strong partnerships, we’re advancing efforts that reduce flood risk and restore salmon habitat, efforts that benefit our environment, economy, and quality of life.”

Almost $4.5 million grant dollars will be passed to project partners including the Tulalip Tribes, Snohomish Conservation District, Washington Farmland Trust, Ducks Unlimited, and Adopt A Stream Foundation.
