  • An Overview of Ohlone Culture by Robert Cartier
    An Overview of Ohlone Culture By Robert Cartier In the 16th century, (prior to the arrival of the Spaniards), over 10,000 Indians lived in the central California coastal areas between Big Sur and the Golden Gate of San Francisco Bay. This group of Indians consisted of approximately forty different tribelets ranging in size from 100–250 members, and was scattered throughout the various ecological regions of the greater Bay Area (Kroeber, 1953). They did not consider themselves to be a part of a larger tribe, as did well- known Native American groups such as the Hopi, Navaho, or Cheyenne, but instead functioned independently of one another. Each group had a separate, distinctive name and its own leader, territory, and customs. Some tribelets were affiliated with neighbors, but only through common boundaries, inter-tribal marriage, trade, and general linguistic affinities. (Margolin, 1978). When the Spaniards and other explorers arrived, they were amazed at the variety and diversity of the tribes and languages that covered such a small area. In an attempt to classify these Indians into a large, encompassing group, they referred to the Bay Area Indians as "Costenos," meaning "coastal people." The name eventually changed to "Coastanoan" (Margolin, 1978). The Native American Indians of this area were referred to by this name for hundreds of years until descendants chose to call themselves Ohlones (origination uncertain). Utilizing hunting and gathering technology, the Ohlone relied on the relatively substantial supply of natural plant and animal life in the local environment. With the exception of the dog, we know of no plants or animals domesticated by the Ohlone.

Their work was tireless and dependable, and their company more than pleasant. In addition to hours of research, fact checking and editing their joint effort has become a model for other communities developing a historic context statement. We would like to thank the City of Watsonville Council members and Planning Commission members for supporting the Historic Context Statement project. It is a testimony to their appreciation and protection of local history. Thanks to all of you.

  • 4.9 Hydrology and Water Quality
    Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail Network Master Plan EIR Section 4.9 Hydrology and Water Quality 4.9 HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY 4.9.1 Setting a. Regional Hydrology. Watersheds. The MBSST Network would traverse through nearly every watershed in Santa Cruz County, and be located where the watersheds drain, due to its coastal location. A list of the watersheds within the MBSST Network is provided below. Because several watersheds fall within more than one reach of the MBSST Network, the watersheds are listed in order from north to south, rather than by reach. Waddell Baldwin Wilder Swanton Bluffs San Lorenzo River Scott Creek Arana Gulch – Rodeo Davenport Soquel Creek San Vicente Creek Aptos Creek Liddell Creek Pajaro River Laguna Creek Watsonville Slough Majors San Andreas The watersheds cover almost all of Santa Cruz County, except for the less than 20 acres that are within the Año Nuevo Creek Watershed and the Pescadero Watershed. Each watershed consists of numerous tributaries, with over 50 tributaries combined. All of these watersheds are within the jurisdiction of the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The RWQCB establishes requirements prescribing the quality of point and nonpoint sources of discharge and establishes water quality objectives through the Water Quality Control Plan for the local basin. A point source is defined as waste emanating from a single, identifiable point such as a wastewater treatment plant. A nonpoint source of discharge results from drainage and percolation of activities such as agriculture and stormwater runoff. Groundwater. Groundwater supplies account for approximately 80 percent of the countywide water supply.
