US Office of Coastal Zone Management (OCZM) has approved an amendment to the Washington State Coastal Zone Management program
Abstract
The US Office of Coastal Zone Management (OCZM) has approved an amendment to the Washington State Coastal Zone Management Program, which deletes the ''Evans Policy Statement'', on the grounds that it has no legally enforceable status under state or federal law on selection of an oil port site or the advisability of a pipeline hook-up. Existing state and federal regulations adequately protect the Puget Sound environment and delection of the statement from the program would have no significant impact on the environment. The deleted statement had held that Washington State supports the policy of a single, major oil transshipment port at, or west of, Port Angeles and that the subject port will provide a hook-up to supply existing refineries in Whatcom and Skagit Counties, Wash., with oil, thus precluding expansion of existing Puget Sound oil off-loading facilities. OCZM's action on this matter will have no effect on future government decisions on the proposed Northern Tier Pipeline Co. project or selection of an oil port. This rule is effective as of 12/31/79.
