  • San Mateo County Parks Vegetation Resources
    San Mateo County Parks Vegetation Resources Prepared for County of San Mateo Environmental Services Agency Parks & Recreation Division by Rana Creek Habitat Restoration March 2002 SAN MATEO COUNTY PARKS VEGETATION RESOURCES 1 1. INTRODUCTION The San Mateo County Department of Parks and Recreation operates seventeen parks in San Mateo County. These parks contain a diverse group of plant communities, reflecting the wide variation in elevation, marine influence, soils, and other environmental factors across the San Francisco Peninsula as well as differences in land use and fire history. Several plant communities within the parks are rare in California, including coastal salt marsh, serpentine bunchgrass grassland, coastal prairie, and maritime chaparral. In addition, many of the parks provide habitat for rare species, including eight Federally Endangered and seven Federally Threatened plants and animals known to occur within the park system. The purpose of this document is to summarize and update available vegetation information for thirteen County parks. This task includes: 1) classifying and mapping plant communities; 2) assessing the condition of the vegetation; 3) mapping non-native plant infestations; and 4) mapping known locations of sensitive and endangered plant and animal species. The vegetation maps and plant community descriptions herein will provide the foundation for a Vegetation Management Plan. The Vegetation Management Plan, in turn, will establish vegetation management objectives, develop Best Management Practices, and identify opportunities for pilot projects, collaborative projects, and community involvement. The thirteen parks described in this document are listed below. Pescadero Creek, Sam MacDonald, and Memorial Parks are treated as a single park complex. Coyote Point Recreation Area Memorial Park Crystal Springs Park Pescadero Creek Park Edgewood Preserve Sam McDonald Park Fitzgerald Marine Reserve San Bruno Mountain State and County Park Flood Park San Pedro Park Huddart Park Wunderlich Park Junipero Serra Park 2.

  • Marbled Murrelet Landscape Management Plan for Zone 6
    Marbled Murrelet Landscape Management Plan for Zone 6 Editors Portia Halbert is a Senior Environmental Scientist with California State Parks in the Santa Cruz District at 303 Big Trees Park Rd. Felton CA 95018 Steven W. Singer of Singer Environmental is a consulting forest biologist working in the Santa Cruz Mountains California Department of Parks and Recreation Santa Cruz District 303 Big Trees Park Rd. Felton CA 95018 May 2017 PREFACE It has been recognized by those working to protect the marbled murrelet in the Santa Cruz Mountains that a management plan specific to this region is essential for the long term protection of this species. California State Parks has spearheaded the coordination of a plan with other state and federal agencies, non-profits, and interested parties. This plan is written with the goal of assisting in the conservation and enhancement of the marbled murrelet population in Zone 6 for, as the Recovery Plan states, “Zone 6 is expected to contribute to recovery and is essential to the species in the short term (50–100 years).” This management plan will be expanded in the near future to include information that was solicited by the editor but not received in time to include. Chapters still under preparation and scheduled to be included in the next edition are: ● Forest Management of Second-growth Stands ● Implications of Climate Change for Murrelets in Zone 6 ● Habitat Suitability Assessment in Zone 6 At that time, additions and simple enhancements to the existing chapters will also be made to make the plan more up to date.
