The next quarterly meeting of Strait ERN, the Strait of Juan de Fuca Ecosystem Recovery Network, is scheduled for 9:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Friday, March 4, at the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe’s Red Cedar Hall, located within the tribe’s community center on Old Blyn Highway, Blyn.

Strait ERN is one of the Puget Sound Partnership’s Local Integrating Organizations who are working to implement the Action Agenda, the “leadership and coordinating document, meant to focus the region around a shared agenda” for Puget Sound protection and recovery. The organization includes all local tribes and jurisdictions and most of the non-governmental organizations, educational institutions and key business groups with interest in the Strait of Juan de Fuca Action Area. Geographically, the Strait Action Area encompasses much of Clallam and Jefferson counties extending from Cape Flattery near Neah Bay east to Point Wilson in Port Townsend on the North Olympic Peninsula.

Agenda items for March 4 meeting include educational, planning and funding topics. The public is encouraged to attend.
