It’s our nature to serve.
The Port of Camas-Washougal, a political subdivision of the State of Washington, was established in 1935 to create a favorable climate for economic development in the Camas-Washougal area. The policy board for the Port is made up of three commissioners who are elected to 4-year terms by the voters residing within the Port district. The Commission is the Port district’s governing body responsible for setting policy and enforcing established policies. The Commission may exercise only the powers that are delegated to them by law or pursuant to law.
