A public interest group, Long Live the Kings, is developing a research study, for which they are seeking legislative and grant funding, to assess the impacts of the Hood Canal Bridge on water quality and out-migrating steelhead.\u00a0 WSDOT has been invited to comment on the study plan that is under development, but it does not have the necessary expertise to review the plan and provide substantive comments that will help ensure that the study reaches a science-based outcome to inform future decisions. Therefore, WSDOT is convening an Expert Review Panel comprising UW faculty well known in their professional fields to review the study plans and advise WSDOT accordingly.<\/p>\n
