Island County Marine Resources Committee (MRC) is an advisory body to county government established in 1999 and comprised of many community volunteers who represent diverse interests and industries, with the common goal to protect and restore marine resources in the Puget Sound area through scientific monitoring, restoration projects, and community education.
From forage fish to films, kelp monitoring to crabber outreach, our work has taken us onto the beach, under the water, and into our community! We've been up to a lot this past year. Read more about our projects and accomplishments in our annual report!
