RE Sources’ North Sound Baykeeper Team is charged with protecting and restoring the marine and nearshore habitats of the northern Puget Sound region. We take a collaborative approach, working in coalition with other organizations, interacting and partnering with agency staff and decision makers, offering technical assistance trainings for businesses, and encouraging public involvement and stewardship through educational events and volunteer programs.

Pollution Prevention

Non-point source stormwater pollution is widely recognized as the greatest pollution threat to Puget Sound. Visit the North Sound Baykeeper Stormwater page for more information.


Sediment Cleanups
RE Sources is engaged in all of the major cleanup processes in Whatcom and Skagit counties, including the Bellingham Bay cleanups, participating in the planning process, focusing on habitat development and commenting on cleanup documents.

Events - Locust Beach Cleanup
Marine debris, especially plastics, threatens oceans and coasts, marine life, our economy, safe navigation, and human health and safety.  Do your part and help keep our seas free from debris!

You are invited to join the Baykeeper Team as we work to remove marine debris from the shores of Locust Beach on Monday, January 16th at 1pm. Litter removal equipment will be provided, as well as light refreshments.  Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes or rubber boots. For more details and directions, click here.

Habitat Protection and Restoration

The North Sound Baykeeper has advocated for the fragile habitats at Cherry Point for more than a decade. Through our work on sediment cleanups in both Whatcom and Skagit counties, the Baykeeper has been a staunch advocate of including habitat restoration planning in the cleanup planning process.

Public Education and Constituency Building
RE Sources has deep roots in public education—we believe that we cannot solve our environmental problems without an educated citizenry that is willing to not only embrace lifestyle change, but also advocate on behalf of the environment. Our public involvement includes the Beach Naturalist program, articles and e-newsletters.
