Please complete this form if your organization intends to participate in the 2024-25 Quiet Sound Voluntary Slowdown for commercial vessels in Admiralty Inlet and north Puget Sound.
Last season, organizations like yours reduced underwater noise by 50% by reducing speeds when transiting through the designated zone. Completing this form will help us recognize your efforts in quieting Washington waters for the endangered orcas.
The Quiet Sound Voluntary Vessel Slowdown will begin as early as September 3, 2024 and will remain in effect through January 12, 2025. For more information regarding slowdown parameters, please see our website: https://quietsound.org/admiralty-inlet-slowdown.
