  • Cultural and Paleontological Resources
    LSA ASSOCIATES, INC EBRPD WILDFIRE HAZARD REDUCTION AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN EIR JULY 2009 IV. SETTING, IMPACTS, AND MITIGATION E. CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES E. CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES This section provides an overview of the potential presence of cultural and paleontological resources in the Study Area of the East Bay Regional Parks District’s (EBRPD’s) Wildfire Hazard Reduction and Resource Management Plan (Plan) the proposed project. Also included is a discussion of potential impacts to such resources as a result of project implementation, as well as mitigation recommendations, as warranted. LSA Associates, Inc., provided EBRPD with a more detailed report concerning cultural and paleontological resources that is available for review at EBRPD’s Administrative Headquarters 2950 Peralta Oaks Court, Oakland CA. The lands managed by EBRPD are home to a wide range of cultural and paleontological resources. These resources contribute to the diverse historical and geological background of the San Francisco Bay Area, and are unique, nonrenewable community assets. Such resources on EBRPD lands include, but are not limited to, prehistoric and historical archaeological sites, historical buildings and structures, areas of traditional or religious value to contemporary communities, and fossiliferous geological deposits. 1. Setting This subsection describes the existing conditions for cultural and paleontological resources in the Study Area. The subsection begins with a description of the methods used to obtain background information, followed by an overview of the Study Area’s prehistory, ethnography, history, and paleontology/geology. A summary of recorded cultural and paleontological resources in the Study Area follows. Finally, the legislative context for cultural and paleontological resources is presented.

  • American Era in the Mid-19Th Century, Most of the Rancho and Pueblo
    American Era In the mid-19th century, most of the rancho and pueblo lands in California were subdivided as the result of population growth and the American takeover. The initial explosion in population was associated with the Gold Rush (1848), followed later by the construction of the transcontinental railroad (1869). The growth of the general project area was dependent on transportation-first by I water and roads and later, by rail and then by air. I The modern City of Hayward had its origins in the 1850s, during the Gold Rush, when squatters and settlers began to appear in the area. The City lay within the boundaries of Rancho San Lorenzo, a 17,000-acre estate granted in 1821 to the Mexican colonist Guillermo Castro. William Hayward occupied a tent in 1851 in Palomares Canyon. In 1854, Castro had a map surveyed for a town covering 28 blocks in the vicinity of his adobe and began selling land to settlers. 4.5.2.3 Paleontological Resources As noted above, paleontological resources are the fossilized remains of organisms from prehistoric environments ground in geologic strata. Most of the city of Hayward is located on Quaternary sedimentary deposits which are from the most recent geologic periods (i.e., Holocene, Pleistocene) dating back to 1.6 million years ago. Some of eastern Hayward is located on Mesozoic sedimentary rocks from the Mesozoic period dating back to 245 million years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Both types of geologic rocks may contain fossils of flora and fauna, particularly marine species. According to the General Plan Background Report, five paleontological resources have previously been discovered in the City of Hayward, including four mammalian fossils (e.g., bison, prehistoric horse) and one gastropod fossil (i.e., marine snail) from the Quaternary period.
