From the meeting
The Board of Pilotage Commissioners and Ecology are funding and managing a technical assessment of the 2025 tug escort rule amendments in Washington waters. The work will study vessel traffic patterns, oil spill risk, escort tug behavior, and effects on Tribal fishing and environmental justice communities. The report is a decision-support step before the board decides by October 1, 2028 whether to pursue rulemaking.
Ecology is leading the technical work under an inter-agency agreement.
