(1) Boating and moorage facilities should be located, designed, constructed, and operated to avoid adverse impacts on shoreline functions and processes and to prevent conflicts with other permitted uses.

(2) Boating facilities should not be located or expanded where they would:

(3) Boating facilities and moorage associated with commercial, industrial, and port uses should include public access in accordance with Article III of Chapter 35.25 CCC.

(4) Boating facilities and moorage should be sited and designed to avoid or, if that is not possible, to minimize the need for new and maintenance dredging.

(5) New marinas and other public boating facilities should be co-located with other compatible water-dependent uses where feasible. The Administrator should seek comment from public recreation providers, adjacent cities/counties, port districts, Washington State Parks, affected Native American Tribes, and the Washington State Departments of Ecology, Fish and Wildlife, Health, and Natural Resources, to ensure that local as well as regional recreation needs are addressed.

(6) The County should review proposals for boating facilities and moorage to determine if any such development would thwart or substantially compromise planned restoration actions. The County should work with the proponents of each project to resolve likely conflicts between the proposed development and planned restoration.
