The answer is quite a lot.\u00a0 Stormwater runoff\u00a0 poses a major threat to the Puget Sound. Pollutants have been found throughout the Sound&#8217;s water and\u00a0 have even been found in local shellfish produced there. Luckily, local government agencies such as the Department of Ecology (Ecology), the Department of Fish and Wildlife , and the Port of Olympia are all in the works to help reduce the amount of stormwater runoff that flows into the Puget Sound (Watershed Forestry Research Guide, 2016).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a
