The Cockreham Island Flood Hazard Reduction Buy-Out Study: Cockreham
Island is located between the Towns of Lyman and Hamilton, in Skagit County,
Washington, and is adjacent to the Skagit River. With its significant history
of flooding and flood-related damages, a group of landowners, who collectively
own a large portion of Cockreham Island, requested that Skagit County inquire
about the possibility of a buy-out of island properties.
