Cascadia Marine Trail Study Act

Bill 111 hr 1641, also known as the Cascadia Marine Trail Study Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to authorize a study of the feasibility and desirability of designating the Cascadia Marine Trail as a National Recreation Trail.

The Cascadia Marine Trail is a water trail that stretches along the coast of Washington state, providing access to various recreational activities such as kayaking, boating, and camping. The trail is currently managed by the Washington Water Trails Association, but this bill seeks to explore the possibility of giving it national recognition and protection.

If passed, the bill would require the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a study to determine the potential benefits and impacts of designating the Cascadia Marine Trail as a National Recreation Trail. The study would also assess the trail's current condition, usage, and management practices. Overall, the Cascadia Marine Trail Study Act aims to promote outdoor recreation and conservation efforts in Washington state by potentially designating the Cascadia Marine Trail as a National Recreation Trail. This bill is currently under consideration in Congress and has the potential to have a significant impact on the management and preservation of this important water trail.
