OLYMPIA — The state Parks and Recreation Commission is closing 35 public recreational mooring buoys across western Washington — including buoys in Sequim Bay, Fort Worden, Fort Flagler and Fort Townsend — that are at risk of breaking in the future, state officials said.
Olympic National Park, Olympic National Forest and Washington state parks
