The Puget Sound Ecosystem Funding is composed of a network of federal, state and local workgroups, which allocate primarily tax and bond resources to a variety of Efforts. Funding is usually associated with a planning system--for example, funding for salmon is largely driven by Salmon Recovery Planning. Efforts that meet the most important needs of the right plan, and meet other criteria generally get funds. Most Federal funding systems work on an annual basis. Most State funding systems are organized on a biennial cycle driven by the Washington State Capital Budget.
