Nonpoint source implementation projects include a variety of structural and non-structural best management practices (bmps), watershed planning, riparian restoration, BMP effectiveness monitoring, technology demonstrations, and a variety of education/outreach programs.activities:the proposed work in this agreement includes more than five projects that will implement riparian and habitat restoration and best management practices to reduce water temperature and reduce nutrients and stream sediment. This grant is used for the implementation of washington's nonpoint source management program as described in their federal fiscal year 2023 and 2024 work plan. Washington supports an extensive subaward program, using significant amounts of state dollars, to also address nonpoint source reductions above and beyond their match requirement. Subrecipient:more than five subawards funded under this grant will fund on-the-ground projects that are designed to reduce nonpoint sources of pollution through implementation of agricultural best management practices, stream stabilization and restoration projects.outcomes:the anticipated deliverables and expected outcomes include nutrient reduction and sediment reduction, stream flow improvements, temperature reduction, coordination with partner agencies, technical assistance, outreach and education. Direct beneficiaries of this program include all state residents and occupants, both permanent and temporary, as well as overburdened and underserved.
