Toxics Loading Studies 2006 to 2009 Science  Policy Studies  Action Pragmatic progression Formal decision process 1

Phase 1 Toxic Chemical Loadings to Puget Sound Actors: PSAT, Ecology, DoH, U.S.EPA Money: U.S. EPA NEP Grant $135,000 Goal: Identify greatest toxic threats Obtain credible results Develop strategy for action 2

Phase 1 Outcomes Show first PSP results Broad participation Initial sketch of known/unknown 3

Phase 2 Toxic Chemical Loadings to Puget Sound Ecology: “What next?” Springtime money: U.S. EPA $300K Ecology TCP $300K NOAA $ 55K No formal process for prioritization 4

Phase 2 Projects Foci: Some of the sidelined pathways Fill gaps More details for pathways of greater threat Leads: EcologyU.S. EPA WDFWNOAA Eight Projects: One abandoned One scope changed 5

Phase 2 Outcomes To-Date A.Roadways & Surface Runoff B.Wastewater Dischargers C.Assess Sediment to Biota Transfer D.Ocean Boundary E.Support Human Health Risk Assessment F.Box Model G.Develop Toxics Biological Observing System 6

7 Phase 3 Toxic Chemical Loadings to Puget Sound Ecology & PSP: “What next?” Intentions: Align with Action Agenda (not yet written) Keep momentum U.S. EPA wants funding to drive actions

8 Phase 3 Projects 17 Proposed Projects 11 Received Funding (2 only for half) 1 Project Split; 1 Project Merged Plus 1 Project Funded by WA Legislature U.S. EPA 2008 NEP Grant$1,983,800 U.S. EPA$ 30,000 U.S. EPA (NOAA / USFWS)$ 475,000 Washington Legislature (PSP)$ 310,000 Project Leads: Ecology U.S. EPA WDFW NOAA U.S. FWS

9 Phase 3 Year 2 Toxic Chemical Loadings to Puget Sound Inter-Agency SC: “What next?” Action Agenda for guidance Remainder of U.S. EPA 2008 NEP Grant PSP needs inventory of toxic chemical sources by Spring 2010

10 Potential Phase 3 Year 2 Projects Only 3 to 6 projects may be funded Proposals due to U.S. EPA March 1 Proposed projects: Continuing Year 1 projects (2) Link Sources to Sound / Synthesis / Education (3) Air Deposition (2) Stormwater (2) Groundwater (2) Bioaccumulation Others

11 Toxics Loading Hand-Off From Various Agencies To PSP Science Panel Phase 3 Year 2 decision process will probably still be “pragmatic.” Decision process for potential Oct 2009 funding is to be more formal and rely on recommendations of PSP Science Panel.
