  • Annex 18 Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department
    Santa Clara County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Annex 18 – County of Santa Clara Parks and Recreation Department ANNEX 18. COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT Prepared by: Flint Glines, Seth Hiatt, Don Rocha, John Patterson, and Barry Hill Santa Clara County acquired its first parkland in 1924, purchasing 400 acres near Cupertino, which became Stevens Creek County Park. In 1956, the Department of Parks and Recreation was formed. Currently, the regional parks system has expanded to 29 parks encompassing nearly 48,000 acres. Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department (County Parks) provides a sustainable system of diverse regional parks, trails, and natural areas that connects people with the natural environment, and supports healthy lifestyles, while balancing recreation opportunities with the protection of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources (https://www.sccgov.org/sites/parks/AboutUs/Pages/About-the-County-Regional-Parks.aspx). County Parks are regional parks located close to home, yet away from the pressures of the valley’s urban lifestyle. The parks offer opportunities for recreation in a natural environment to all County residents. Regional parks are larger in size, usually more than 200 acres, than local neighborhood or community parks. Many of the County’s regional parks also feature points of local historic interest. County park locations are shown in Figure 18.1.

  • 5.0 Conceptual Model of Mercury Behavior in the Guadalupe River Watershed
    5.0 CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF MERCURY BEHAVIOR IN THE GUADALUPE RIVER WATERSHED The conceptual model is presented in two parts. The first part summarizes key aspects of mercury behavior based on general knowledge of the Guadalupe River Watershed and on a review of pertinent scientific literature. The second part of the conceptual model describes, in more detail, the key issues in this watershed and essential information needed to support the development of a TMDL and Implementation Plan. This section has been revised from the Draft Final Conceptual Model (Tetra Tech, 2004a) that was based on the 2003 Synoptic Survey data (Tetra Tech, 2003d) and published scientific literature on mercury behavior. This revision of the conceptual model considers all new data that were collected during the wet and dry season sampling as described in the Data Collection Report (Tetra Tech, 2005a). 5.1 OVERVIEW OF MERCURY TRANSPORT PROCESSES Most of the mercury in the Guadalupe River Watershed exists as relatively insoluble mercury sulfides in mine wastes that have accumulated in reservoir deltaic deposits and sediments, and in stream bottoms, banks, and flood plains. Mercury also exists adsorbed to sediment within the waterbodies. Mercury in dissolved form is a small fraction of the total mercury, although it may play a proportionally greater role in the formation of methylmercury. Because of the strong association of mercury with solids, the movement of mercury in the watershed is closely tied to the movement of sediments as described below. Because of the seasonal nature of the rainfall in the watershed, i.e., generally between October and April, large flows, and significant sediment and mercury transport occur predominantly in the wet season.

  • 3Rd Administrative Draft
    Section 3.0 Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation 3.11 CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES The following discussion evaluates existing cultural and paleontological resources and the environmental effects of implementation of the Envision San José 2040 General Plan. The analysis in this section is based in part on the following technical reports: • Cultural Resources Existing Setting, Envision San José 2040 General Plan, Santa Clara County, California, Basin Research Associates, July 2009. • Cultural Resources Impacts, Envision San José 2040 General Plan, Santa Clara County, California, Basin Research Associates, November 2010. • Paleontological Evaluation Report for the Envision San José 2040 General Plan, Santa Clara County, California, C. Bruce Hanson, September 2010. Copies of these reports are included in the Technical Appendices to this Draft PEIR (Appendix J). 3.11.1 Existing Setting 3.11.1.1 Overview Cultural resources are evidence of past human occupation and activity and include both historical and archeological resources. These resources may be located above ground, underground or underwater, and have significance in the history, prehistory153, architecture or culture of the nation, State of California, or local or tribal communities. Examples of historic resources include buildings (e.g., houses, factories, churches, hotels); structures (e.g., bridges, dams); districts (i.e., a group of buildings or structures that have a common basis in history or architecture); sites (e.g., prehistoric or historic encampments); objects (e.g., statues, ships, marquees); and areas (e.g., historic mining towns, parks). Cultural resources may include homes, buildings or old roads of early settlers; structures with unique architecture; prehistoric village sites; historic or prehistoric artifacts or objects; rock inscriptions; human burial sites; and earthworks, such as canals or prehistoric mounds.
