  • 2018 Stream Maintenance Program
    2018 Stream Maintenance Program Improving water quality in our streams while providing flood protection for our community This summer the Sonoma County Water Agency (Water Agency) will be working in streams and channels throughout Sonoma County to improve water quality and provide flood protection. As part of our comprehensive Stream Maintenance Program (SMP), we will be removing sediment and garbage and planting trees to create shady riparian canopies. These canopies help cool the water and shade out less desirable species of plants, which can catch debris and reduce the streams’ water-carrying capacity. If necessary, we will remove some non-canopy forming trees such as arroyo willows as well as certain dense shrubs such as non-native and invasive blackberries. Sediment removal activities include planting native trees, shrubs, and some aquatic plants according to a certain pattern to establish canopy while maintaining channel capacity. The Sonoma County Youth Ecology Corps (SCYEC), a workforce training and ecosystem education program aimed at educating youth and young adults in environmental stewardship and restoration, will be working with the SMP this summer. The SCYEC provides youth and young adults paychecks, valuable work experience, environmental education, and the opportunity to contribute to their community through ongoing outdoor experiences. Below is the list of streams the Water Agency will be maintaining this summer. For a more detailed list, map of locations, and information on stream maintenance, visit www.sonomacountywater.org.

  • Salmon and Steelhead in Your Creek: Restoration and Management of Anadromous Fish in Bay Area Watersheds
    Salmon and Steelhead in Your Creek: Restoration and Management of Anadromous Fish in Bay Area Watersheds Presentation Summaries (in order of appearance) Gary Stern, National Marine Fisheries Service Steelhead as Threatened Species: The Status of the Central Coast Evolutionarily Significant Unit Under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), a "species" is defined to include "any distinct population segment of any species of vertebrate fish or wildlife which interbreeds when mature." To assist NMFS apply this definition of "species to Pacific salmon stocks, an interim policy established the use of "evolutionarily significant unit (ESU) of the biological species. A population must satisfy two criteria to be considered an ESU: (1) it must be reproductively isolated from other conspecific population units; and (2) it must represent an important component in the evolutionary legacy of the biological species. The listing of steelhead as "threatened" in the California Central Coast resulted from a petition filed in February 1994. In response to the petition, NMFS conducted a West Coast-wide status review to identify all steelhead ESU’s in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California. There were two tiers to the review: (1) regional expertise was used to determine the status of all streams with regard to steelhead; and (2) a biological review team was assembled to review the regional team's data. Evidence used in this process included data on precipitation, annual hydrographs, monthly peak flows, water temperatures, native freshwater fauna, major vegetation types, ocean upwelling, and smolt and adult out-migration (i.e., size, age and time of migration). Steelhead within San Francisco Bay tributaries are included in the Central California Coast ESU.

  • The Sonoma County Water Agency 2006 Stream Maintenance Program Providing Flood Protection for Our Community
    The Sonoma County Water Agency 2006 Stream Maintenance Program Providing Flood Protection For Our Community This summer, the Sonoma County Water Agency targeted 36 streams within Sonoma County to perform flood protection maintenance. Now that summer is over, the Agency is continuing to complete work on as many streams as possible before weather conditions prohibit outdoor work. Below is an updated list of streams the Sonoma County Water Agency has completed work on and will be continuing maintenance on this fall. The goal of the maintenance work is to form and promote the development of shaded riparian canopies with alders and other trees that grow tall and stretch their branches over the creek, cooling the water and shading out bushes, brush and less desirable species of trees that reduce the water-carrying capacity of the creek.

Center for Ecosystem Management and Restoration SONOMA COUNTY Petaluma River Watershed The Petaluma River watershed lies within portions of Marin and Sonoma Counties. The river flows in a northwesterly to southeasterly direction into San Pablo Bay. Petaluma River In a 1962 report, Skinner indicated that the Petaluma River was an historical migration route and habitat for steelhead (Skinner 1962). At that time, the creek was said to be “lightly used” as steelhead habitat (Skinner 1962). In July 1968, DFG surveyed portions of the Petaluma River accessible by automobile from the upstream limit of tidal influence to the headwaters. No O. mykiss were observed (Thomson and Michaels 1968d). Leidy electrofished upstream from the Corona Road crossing in July 1993. No salmonids were found (Leidy 2002). San Antonio Creek San Antonio Creek is a tributary of Petaluma River and drains an area of approximately 12 square miles. The channel is the border between Sonoma and Marin Counties. In a 1962 report, Skinner indicated that San Antonio Creek was an historical migration route for steelhead (Skinner 1962).

  • Foothill Yellow-Legged Frog Comments
    The Center for Biological Diversity submits the following information for the status review of the foothill yellow-legged frog (Rana boylii) (Docket #FWS-R8-ES-2015-0050), including substantial new information regarding the species' biology, population structure (including potential Distinct Population Segments of the species), historical and recent distribution and status, population trends, documented range contraction, habitat requirements, threats to the species and its habitat, disease, and the potential effects of climate change on the species and its habitat. The foothill yellow-legged frog has experienced extensive population declines throughout its range and a significant range contraction. Multiple threats continue unabated throughout much of the species’ remaining range, including impacts from dams, water development, water diversions, timber harvest, mining, marijuana cultivation, livestock grazing, roads and urbanization, recreation, climate change and UV-radiation, pollution, invasive species and disease. The species warrants listing as threatened under the Endangered Species Act.

    transcribed for KRIS September 16, 1973 BIG SULPHUR CREEK SONOMA Entire Mouth Headwaters 20 miles Russian River 11 N 10 W 7 None Russian Personal Observations EXTENT OF OBSERVATION: Big Sulphur Creek was checked at several points on August 8 by B. Finlayson. The creek was completely surveyed by foot and from car from its confluence with the Russian River to its headwaters by B. Finlayson and J. Nelson on September 4, 5, 7 and 13, 1973. LOCATION: Big Sulphur Creek enters the Russian River two miles north of Cloverdale, California. The creek flows due west from its headwaters near Middletown, California. RELATION TO OTHER WATERS: Big Sulphur Creek contributes winter and summer flows to the Russian River System, provides passage for both upstream and downstream migration of anadromous salmonids to the creeks tributaries. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Watershed and Immediate Drainage System— Big Sulphur Creek and its tributaries drain a basin of approximately 60 square miles, most of which is oak-grassland. The creek flows through a narrow and steep canyon, occasionally opening into shallow valleys. The creek is typified by steep walls (750 feet high carved out of outcroppings of bedrock) and bordered by oak, alder, madrone and some pine. Riparian streamside cover is limited along the entire stream. Altitude— 400 feet at confluence with Russian River: 2400 feet at headwaters. Gradient— 200 feet/mile overall. Width— Average: eight feet; range: three to 30 feet. Depth— One foot average; three inches to six feet range. Flow— Range from 1.9 c.f.s. near mouth to 0.3 c.f.s.

    MANAGEMENT TIPS TO ENHANCE LAND & WATER QUALITY FOR SMALL ACREAGE PROPERTIES Laguna de Santa Rosa Watershed With tips appropriate on a regional level About Sotoyome Resource Conservation District The Sotoyome Resource Conservation District (SRCD) is a non-regulatory special district of the state which was originally established in 1946 to aid farmers and ranchers in their soil erosion control efforts and provide assistance in water conservation. The Sotoyome RCD has expanded its services since that time to communities, school districts, river basin and watershed projects, and environ- mental improvement programs. The SRCD provides leadership in assessing the conservation needs of the constituents of the district, and in developing programs and policies to meet those needs. For this publication, we compiled and edited content in coordination with a technical advisory com- mittee comprised of landowners, agency and organization personnel, and agricultural producers. The information within consists of tips and resources about best management practices for small acreage properties. Additional resources, for further inquiry on specific topics, are provided in the appendix of the document. Notice: RIGHT TO FARM The County of Sonoma has declared it a policy to protect and encourage agricultural opera- tions. If your property is located near an agricultural operation, you might at some times be subject to inconvenience or discomfort arising from agricultural operations. If conducted in a manner consistent with proper and accepted standards, said inconveniences and dis- comforts are hereby deemed not to constitute a nuisance for purposes of the Sonoma County Code. Agricultural Commissioners Note: If you are developing a new vineyard or replanting an existing vineyard, you must contact the Agricultural Commissioner to comply with the Vineyard Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance at (707) 565-2371.
