Brief description of significant agency actions for which the agency is initiating an environmental justice assessment.
Proviso funding will help establish a circular economy market development initiative and expand industrial symbiosis projects across Washington. By combining these funds ($390k) with the existing Industrial Symbiosis Grant Program administered for Fiscal Year 2025, two additional circular market projects are supported. The awarded funds help divert industrial waste for reuse through innovation into valuable new products. A strong circular market reduces environmental impacts, builds a resilient supply chain, and creates jobs
Methods for providing public comment for agency consideration as part of the environmental justice assessment.
Upcoming Community Involvement Listening Session on March 18 and March 20 as well as the upcoming Tribal Briefing in April 2025
