Yesterday, a tug sank at Shipyard Cove Marina on San Juan Island, spilling an est. 25 gal of fuel. Thanks to Islands Oil Spill Association for their quick work surrounding the vessel w/ boom! Divers plugged a leaking vent & the vessel was raised last night, stopping the spill.

This year, funding from the Climate Commitment Act provided assistance for electricity bills, replaced failing heating, air conditioning, and ventilation in schools, and updated safety infrastructure like crosswalks and signage. This is impactful for communities across the state.
