Pt. Isabel-Stege Area
Tales of the Bay Shore -- Pt. Isabel-Stege area Geology: The “bones” of the shoreline from Albany to Richmond are a sliver of ancient, alien sea floor, caught on the edge of North America as it overrode the Pacific. Fleming Point (site of today’s racetrack), Albany Hill, Pt. Isabel, Brooks Island, scattered hillocks inland, the hills at Pt Richmond, and the hills across the San Pablo Strait (spanned by the Richmond Bridge) all are part of this Novato Terrane. Erosion and uplift eventually left their hard rock as hilltops in a valley. Still later – only about 5000 years ago -- rising seas from the melting glaciers of our last Ice Age flooded the valley, forming today’s San Francisco Bay. The “alien” hilltops became islands, peninsulas linked to shore by marsh, or isolated dome-like “turtlebacks.” Left: Portion of 1911 map of SF Bay showing many Native American sites near Pt. Isabel and Stege. Right: 1853 U.S. Coastal Survey map showing N. end of Albany Hill, Cerrito Creek, Pt. Isabel, and marshes/ to North. Native Americans: Native Americans would have watched the slow rise of today’s Bay. When Europeans reached North America, the East Bay was the home of Huchiun Ohlone peoples. Living in groups generally of fewer than 100 people, they moved seasonally amid rich and varied resources, gathering, hunting, fishing, and encouraging useful plants with pruning and burning. They made reed boats, baskets, nets, traps, mortars, and a wide variety of implements and decorations. Along the shellfish-rich shoreline they gradually built up substantial hills of debris – shell mounds -- that kept them above floods and served as multipurpose homesites, burial sites, refuse dumps, and more. -
Climate Change Adaptation Study APPENDIX
City of Richmond Climate Change Adaptation Study APPENDIX City of Richmond Climate Action Plan Appendix F: Climate Change Adaptation Study Acknowledgements The City of Richmond has been an active participant in the Contra Costa County Adapting to Rising Tides Project, led by the Bay Conservation Development Commission (BCDC) in partnership with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the State Coastal Conservancy, the San Francisco Estuary Partnership, the San Francisco Estuary Institute, Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District and the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, and consulting firm AECOM. Environmental Science Associates (ESA) completed this Adaptation Study in coordination with BCDC, relying in part on reports and maps developed for the Adapting to Rising Tides project to assess the City of Richmond’s vulnerabilities with respect to sea level rise and coastal flooding.

Chapter 4.9 Land Use and Planning
Section 4.9 Land Use and Planning 4.9 LAND USE AND PLANNING 4.9.1 Introduction This section evaluates the potential land use and planning impacts of development under the 2014 LRDP. The planned 2014 LRDP land uses are described and assessed for potential conflicts with existing RBC site and surrounding land uses and land use plans. Public and agency NOP comments related to land use and planning are summarized below: The EIR should consider proposed new building heights and massing in terms of compatibility with surrounding uses. The EIR should consider 2014 LRDP compatibility with the Eastshore State Park General Plan goals and policies. The 2014 LRDP should conform to local zoning and approved local land use policies to the maximum extent feasible. These comments are considered in the analysis below. 4.9.2 Environmental Setting Project Site The approximately 134-acre RBC site is in the City of Richmond, approximately 5 miles northwest of the UC Berkeley campus and the LBNL site in Berkeley (see Figure 3-1). The City of Richmond is in Contra Costa County. The RBC site is bounded on the west by a PG&E service station, on the northwest by Regatta Boulevard, on the northeast by Meade Street, on the east by South 46th Street, and on the south by the San Francisco Bay. I-580 runs parallel to Meade Street along the northeastern boundary of the RBC site. Existing On-Site Land Uses The RBC site has been the location of a variety of industrial enterprises dating back to the mid- 19th century. -
