apps.leg.wa.gov/documents/billdocs/2011-12/Pdf/Bills/Senate%20Passed%20Legislature/5622-S2.PL.pdf
This bill goes into effect on July 1st, 2011. I will be working with DNR to secure vouchers of volunteer hours for qualifying club members ASAP. I will also work with DNR staff to gain a clear understanding of how this bill will affect our projects in the Yacolt Burn.

Here is the e-mail from DNR:
Hi folks:
Good news! We just learned yesterday that the Governor will be signing the recreation access bill SSSB 5622 at 1:30 p.m. Thursday, May 12 in the Governor's conference room at the Capitol.
By Friday, the Discover Pass website will be up and running at www.discoverpass.wa.gov. The website will include information about how and where to purchase the pass. The website will also include frequently asked questions, a toll-free number, and an email address.
The cornerstone of this bill is the Discover Pass, which will enable DNR, Washington State Parks, and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to continue providing recreational opportunities through a user fee.
The signing will be streamed live on TVW. The signing is also open to the public, and you are welcome to attend. For those that have never seen a signing ceremony, it is interesting to witness.
Please spread the word!
