Concerning the design and operation of buildings to protect birds.

Summary

The measure requires building owners to turn off nonessential exterior lighting in April, May, September and October to reduce bird collisions and creates LEED incentives for bird‑safe design. It also rewrites Washington’s legal holiday code, specifying paid and unpaid holidays for state workers and how overlapping federal holidays are handled. Together the changes aim to protect wildlife and clarify employee holiday benefits.
