SITE ASSESSMENTS

Shore Friendly General Site Visits

If you are a Marine Waterfront Property Owner in Kitsap County and have a bulkhead that you have contemplated removing but are concerned about the feasibility of removal, possible erosion, and want to find out more about alternative options – please submit a site visit request! 

Shore Friendly Kitsap Site Visit Information

Shore Friendly Kitsap offers free site assessments to marine shoreline landowners who are interested in restoring their property. We help answer general questions about erosion, permitting, and Shore Friendly options.

Priority is given to those who have a bulkhead or hard armor they are interested in removing – but we are happy to visit unarmored properties and assist when possible. For those qualified and seriously interested in restoration after the initial site visit, we do offer more targeted, in-depth geologic site assessments from a licensed coastal geologist. 

One of our staff members will reach out with the next steps and scheduling information once the site visit application has been reviewed.
