Senate Bill No. 379 Land Use: general plan: safety element (Jackson) (SB 379) calls on local governments to incorporate adaptation and resilience strategies into Safety Elements of their General Plans as well as their local hazard mitigation plans. This climate change chapter supports local governments’ implementation of SB 379 and builds on the State’s Adaptation Planning Guide. It describes projected changes in key climate hazards of concern for Albany and the citywide assets that these hazards are likely to affect and presents adaptation options to address these hazards. The climate hazard assessment and adaptation options are intended to inform the city’s efforts to incorporate climate hazards and adaptation strategies into its local hazard mitigation plan, General Plan Safety Element, and other relevant plans such as its climate action plan. In doing so, the content can also assist Albany in meeting requirements to position it for federal funding (e.g., Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)) and to meet voluntary commitments (e.g., Compact of Mayors). The hazards analyzed include inland flooding, sea level rise, changes in temperature and precipitation, flood- induced landslides and wildfire. Climate change will affect Albany, California Throughout the remainder of the 21st century, Albany’s climate is projected to grow substantially hotter, and precipitation patterns are expected to be less consistent and characterized by more intense rainfall events. Sea level rise is not expected to significantly affect the city’s emergency assets, with areas of inundation limited to Albany Bulb, access to Golden Gate Fields and parking

  • Friends of Five Creeks Letters Re Restoration of Codornices Creek
    The letters below deal with F5C’s early involvement in Codornices Creek. They shed some light on challenges that faced efforts to restore our area’s only trout stream, and the role citizens played. These are by no means the whole story. Most credit for the big projects on Codornices west of San Pablo goes to the partnership of creek-restoration pioneers Carole Schemmerling, who headed the now defunct Urban Creeks Council, and consulting hydrologist Dr. Ann Riley, whose now defunct private consulting firm Watershed Restoration Institute. The two shared offices; UCC was effectively the nonprofit arm of WRI, able to receive grants and similar government support. Credit also goes to longtime environmental visionary Richard Register, who with UCC played a large role in bringing Codornices out of its pipe between 8th and 9th Streets in 1994-5. This was one of Berkeley’s pioneer “daylighting” projects. Friends of Five Creeks 1000 San Pablo Ave. Albany, CA 94706 412 7257 October 4, 1998 Mr. Ron Gervason San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board 1515 Clay St., 14th Floor Oakland, CA 94612 [email protected] Re: Triannual Review of Water Quality Control Plan of San Francisco Bay Basin Friends of Five Creeks is a grassroots organization that seeks to protect and restore creeks in Albany, California. While Albany’s natural creeks are mostly in culverts, one, Codornices, is substantially free flowing and has a small trout population. Efforts are ongoing to restore another, Cerrito Creek. We believe that the few creeks in our urbanized area that can or do support relatively natural aquatic life, especially cold-water or anadromous fish, should receive the highest possible degree of protection, including that of the Regional Water Quality Control Board.

  • Meeting #4 June 19, 2018 San Francisco Estuary Institute (SFEI) 4911 Central Ave, Richmond, CA 94804
    Adapting to Rising Tides Bay Area Regional Working Group: Meeting #4 June 19, 2018 San Francisco Estuary Institute (SFEI) 4911 Central Ave, Richmond, CA 94804 **PowerPoint available online at www.adaptingtorisingtides.org/projects/art-bay-area Welcome and Introduction: Carey Batha • ART Bay Area project recap, project progress to-date, rationale for organizing vulnerability assessments by Operational Landscape Units (OLUs) o Question: What are the gray areas on the OLU map? Carey: These are the OLUs we are not assessing. We are assessing ART Bay Area assets within 13 OLUs (out of 30). You can find a map of these 13 OLUs here and on the final page of these notes. However, we are also addressing certain long linear assets, such as transportation and the bay trail, throughout the region. Presentation on SFEI Operational Landscape Units (OLUs): Julie Beagle • Introduction to OLU development, scientific grounding, and intended uses o Question: What’s a polder? § Answer (Jeremy Lowe, SFEI): A polder is an area of pressurized land below normal tidal level. For example, an island is above tide line. A polder is land that sits lower than the tide line and therefore very vulnerable to flooding. o Question (from online group): Do OLU boundaries consider rivers or drainage divides? § Answer (SFEI): Yes, OLUs are the expression of watersheds at the Baylands. One of the principles for the delineation was to avoid splitting watersheds or tidal sheds. Each OLU represents the receiving end of one or more watersheds. While the OLU itself must be a manageable size (i.e. the Alameda Creek OLU can’t go all the way to Livermore), the analyses included the watershed inputs of water and sediment.

  • Albany Beach
    1 San Francisco Bay Area Water Trail Site Description for Albany Beach Location, Ownership, and Management: Albany Beach is located on the Albany shoreline in northwestern Alameda County in the city limits of Albany. The beach is located at the base of the Albany Peninsula, with the Golden Gate Fields racetrack to the east, Buchanan Street and the Albany Mudflats Ecological Reserve/State Marine Park (SMP) to the north, and San Francisco Bay and City of Albany lands to the west. Albany Beach is part of McLaughlin Eastshore State Park and is managed by the East Bay Regional Park District. Contact Name: Takei, Kevin Contact Phone: (510) 544-2321 Contact E-mail: [email protected] Southern beach entrance Albany Beach Northern beach entrance Facility Description: Albany Beach is a launch and destination for paddlers and boardsailors, providing a convenient launching point for exploration of the Eastshore State Park shoreline to the north and south. The beach does not have a ramp, boarding pier, or floating dock, but the beach is suitable for lighter watercraft, such as kayaks, canoes, and stand up paddleboards. Boaters may want to bring "boat wheels" (small boat dolly) to help get their boats and boards from the parking lot to the beach, because some of the parking is quite a distance from the beach. Boardsailing is concentrated in the southern portion of the beach and boardsailors will often use the existing Golden Gate Fields dirt parking area for equipment rigging. The East Bay Regional Parks District and City of Albany provide a variety of shoreside facilities, including an ADA portable restroom, trails, bike racks, and parking.
