The Town of Steilacoom is updating the Town's Shoreline Master Program (SMP), in compliance with the Washington State Shoreline Management Act (SMA) and adopted state shoreline management guidelines. A Shoreline Master Program is a plan required for all Washington jurisdictions that contains both policies and regulations that apply to "shorelines of the state". The SMP is intended to provide for environmental protection, appropriate shoreline use and development, and public access. The Town Council preliminarily approved a new SMP on September 18, 2012. The Department of Ecology is now reviewing the proposal, and will take public comment through December 14, 2012. If approved by the Department, the Town Council will formally adopt the new SMP.
