The Sonoma County Water Agency 2006 Stream Maintenance Program Providing Flood Protection for Our Community The Sonoma County Water Agency 2006 Stream Maintenance Program Providing Flood Protection For Our Community This summer, the Sonoma County Water Agency targeted 36 streams within Sonoma County to perform flood protection maintenance. Now that summer is over, the Agency is continuing to complete work on as many streams as possible before weather conditions prohibit outdoor work. Below is an updated list of streams the Sonoma County Water Agency has completed work on and will be continuing maintenance on this fall. The goal of the maintenance work is to form and promote the development of shaded riparian canopies with alders and other trees that grow tall and stretch their branches over the creek, cooling the water and shading out bushes, brush and less desirable species of trees that reduce the water-carrying capacity of the creek.

  • 2018 Stream Maintenance Program
    2018 Stream Maintenance Program Improving water quality in our streams while providing flood protection for our community This summer the Sonoma County Water Agency (Water Agency) will be working in streams and channels throughout Sonoma County to improve water quality and provide flood protection. As part of our comprehensive Stream Maintenance Program (SMP), we will be removing sediment and garbage and planting trees to create shady riparian canopies. These canopies help cool the water and shade out less desirable species of plants, which can catch debris and reduce the streams’ water-carrying capacity. If necessary, we will remove some non-canopy forming trees such as arroyo willows as well as certain dense shrubs such as non-native and invasive blackberries. Sediment removal activities include planting native trees, shrubs, and some aquatic plants according to a certain pattern to establish canopy while maintaining channel capacity. The Sonoma County Youth Ecology Corps (SCYEC), a workforce training and ecosystem education program aimed at educating youth and young adults in environmental stewardship and restoration, will be working with the SMP this summer. The SCYEC provides youth and young adults paychecks, valuable work experience, environmental education, and the opportunity to contribute to their community through ongoing outdoor experiences. Below is the list of streams the Water Agency will be maintaining this summer. For a more detailed list, map of locations, and information on stream maintenance, visit www.sonomacountywater.org.

  • Chapter 10: Developing Trails and Recreation
    DEVELOPING TRAILS AND RECREATION CONSIDERATIONS Which publicly owned lands within the Laguna should be open to the public, and what considerations should be used to guide our decision making regarding public access questions? These were the basic questions that were put to the stakeholder advisory committee convened to discuss public access in the Laguna. The discussions which occurred around this topic revealed sentiments both for and against public access. Eventually a common understanding, of both the opportunities and the potential pitfalls of opening public lands to unsupervised use emerged through these discussions. Many of the sentiments expressed were based on direct experience with managing existing public spaces within the Laguna; other sentiments were derived by inference to similar situations. What emerged from these considerations were specific recommen- dations grouped into four thematic categories. Trails and interpretive facilities are grouped into the theme Wetlands and wildlands; multi-use transportation and recreation right-of-ways are grouped into the theme Laguna community corridor, recreation along urban and suburban flood control channels are grouped together as Greenways and creekways, and roadside interpretive and scenic sites are organized into the proposal for a signed El camino de los pájaros. At the present time, a cautious approach to public access is being Cautious approach for recommended for most elements of the Wetlands and wildlands theme. Wetlands and wildlands Over time, as experience accumulates, this caution will likely give way to greater certainty. At that time, a reconvening of the advisory committee and a reevaluation of our recommendations might be warranted. On the Aggressive pursuit of other hand, most elements of the Laguna community corridor and the Green- Laguna community corridor, ways and creekways themes should be aggressively pursued.
