  • Pt. Isabel-Stege Area
    Tales of the Bay Shore -- Pt. Isabel-Stege area Geology: The “bones” of the shoreline from Albany to Richmond are a sliver of ancient, alien sea floor, caught on the edge of North America as it overrode the Pacific. Fleming Point (site of today’s racetrack), Albany Hill, Pt. Isabel, Brooks Island, scattered hillocks inland, the hills at Pt Richmond, and the hills across the San Pablo Strait (spanned by the Richmond Bridge) all are part of this Novato Terrane. Erosion and uplift eventually left their hard rock as hilltops in a valley. Still later – only about 5000 years ago -- rising seas from the melting glaciers of our last Ice Age flooded the valley, forming today’s San Francisco Bay. The “alien” hilltops became islands, peninsulas linked to shore by marsh, or isolated dome-like “turtlebacks.” Left: Portion of 1911 map of SF Bay showing many Native American sites near Pt. Isabel and Stege. Right: 1853 U.S. Coastal Survey map showing N. end of Albany Hill, Cerrito Creek, Pt. Isabel, and marshes/ to North. Native Americans: Native Americans would have watched the slow rise of today’s Bay. When Europeans reached North America, the East Bay was the home of Huchiun Ohlone peoples. Living in groups generally of fewer than 100 people, they moved seasonally amid rich and varied resources, gathering, hunting, fishing, and encouraging useful plants with pruning and burning. They made reed boats, baskets, nets, traps, mortars, and a wide variety of implements and decorations. Along the shellfish-rich shoreline they gradually built up substantial hills of debris – shell mounds -- that kept them above floods and served as multipurpose homesites, burial sites, refuse dumps, and more.

  • Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair
    > East Bay Regional Park District | Embrace Life! > About Us > News > Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair News Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair By EBRPD Public Affairs October 9, 2015 The East Bay Regional Park District will CLOSE Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27, for slurry-seal repair work on the paved trails. No entry into the park will be allowed from either the Isabel Street side or the Rydin Road side. The Marina Bay-to-Point Isabel Trail from the bridge at Meeker Slough to the end of Rydin Road will be closed; there will be no access to North Point Isabel. The trail from the end of Central Avenue to Isabel Street will also be closed. In addition, Mudpuppy’s Dog Wash and the Sit and Stay Café will be closed for the day. The closure is to allow work crews to slurry seal the asphalt, which will help smooth out and protect the trail and reduce the need for replacement. The material is wet, very sticky, smelly and difficult to remove. We do not want people or dogs on it until it is completely dry. The project will take all day, including drying time. North Point Isabel trails will not be slurry sealed. That area will be closed because the trails that lead to it are being slurry sealed and there will not be any way to access it. The asphalt there needs replacement, which is a bigger job and will be done at another time.

  • California Clapper Rail ( Rallus Longirostris Obsoletus ) TE-807078-10
    2009 Annual Report: California Clapper Rail ( Rallus longirostris obsoletus ) TE-807078-10 Submitted to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Sacramento December 16, 2009 Submitted by PRBO Conservation Science Leonard Liu 1, Julian Wood 1, and Mark Herzog 1 1PRBO Conservation Science, 3820 Cypress Drive #11, Petaluma, CA 94954 Contact: [email protected] Introduction The California Clapper Rail ( Rallus longirostris obsoletus ) is one of the most endangered species in California. The species is dependent on tidal wetlands, which have decreased over 75% from the historical extent in San Francisco Bay. A complete survey of its population and distribution within the San Francisco Bay Estuary was begun in 2005. In 2009, PRBO Conservation Science (PRBO) completed the fifth year of field work designed to provide an Estuary-wide abundance estimate and examine the temporal and spatial patterns in California Clapper Rail populations. Field work was performed in collaboration with partners conducting call-count surveys at complementary wetlands (Avocet Research Associates [ARA], California Department of Fish and Game, California Coastal Conservancy’s Invasive Spartina Project [ISP], and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). This report details PRBO’s California Clapper Rail surveys in 2009 under U.S. Fish and Wildlife service permit TE-807078-10. A more detailed report synthesizing 2009 and 2010 survey results from PRBO and its partners is forthcoming. Methods Call-count surveys were initiated January 15 and continued until May 6. All sites (Table 1) were surveyed 3 times by experienced permitted biologists using a point transect method, with 10 minutes per listening station. Listening stations primarily were located at marsh edges, levees bordering and within marshes, boardwalks, boat-accessible channels within the marsh, and in the case of 6 marshes in the North Bay, foot access within the marsh.

This report is designed to be updated each year until completion of the study. At least one additional water year (2018) is planned for this study. This initial full draft report was prepared for BASMAA in support of materials submitted on or before March 31st 2018 in compliance with the Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP) Order No. R2-2015-0049. Changes are likely after further RMP review and prior to the final report being made available on the RMP website in early summer 2018. Acknowledgements We appreciate the support and guidance from members of the Sources, Pathways, and Loadings Workgroup of the RMP. The detailed work plan behind this study was developed by the Small Tributaries Loading Strategy (STLS) Team during a series of meetings in the summer of 2014, with slight modifications made during the summers of 2015, 2016, and 2017. Local members on the STLS Team at that time were Arleen Feng (Alameda Countywide Clean Water Program), Bonnie de Berry (San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program), Lucile Paquette (Contra Costa Clean Water Program), Chris Sommers and Lisa Sabin (Santa Clara Valley Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention Program), and Richard Looker and Jan O’Hara (Regional Water Board).

  • Tidal Marshes Are Either Exposed to the Open Bay Or Are Protected from Wave and Tidal Energy by Offshore Mudflats
    Assessment Chapter Contra Costa County Adapting to Rising Tides Project Natural Shorelines Natural shorelines include a range of shoreline types and conditions. Fully tidal marshes are either exposed to the open Bay or are protected from wave and tidal energy by offshore mudflats. At the other end of spectrum are muted tidal marshes and ponds, that are protected from the Bay by berms and levees and have water levels controlled by tide gates and other structures. These systems provide an array of ecosystem service benefits, the loss of which will ultimately diminish the value of the Bay Area as a desirable place to live. Natural shorelines help reduce incoming wave heights, protecting shoreline structures from wind, waves, and tidal energy. Natural shorelines provide buffers to neighboring communities of all kinds, including disadvantaged and vulnerable communities, from sea level rise and storm surge. Their loss can place shoreline communities at greater risk of flooding by increasing the likelihood that structural shoreline protection is overtopped or fails, and can increase the cost of maintaining, repairing and upgrading these already expensive structural protection assets. In addition, many natural shorelines, including tidal and muted tidal marshes and ponds, have been restored and represent a significant financial investment. Many of these areas provide habitat to a number of state-listed or federally threatened and endangered species as well as migrating and wintering birds that rely on them for breeding, foraging, and high tide refuge. Additionally, they offer opportunities to view wildlife, provide access to the shoreline, and offer scenic and aesthetic benefits. Tidal Marshes Historically, tidal marshes keep pace with sea level rise by accumulating mineral sediment and by moving upward and landward in the tidal frame.
