I see that the Fed's may significantly cut back on funds and that is a bad thing. But, it was WA and its cities and counties that approved much of the habitat destruction. Why should somebody in Kansas have to pay for Thurston's County's decision to bulkhead the shoreline or WADOT's decision to block passage at culverts.

I can see billing the Feds for Federal decisions but we, collectively, made this mess here and it should be we, collectively, who fix it. Accountability, it seems, is something we don't want to consider.
