  • Petition to List the Clear Lake Hitch Under the Endangered Species
    Petition to List the Clear Lake Hitch (Lavinia exilicauda chi) As Endangered or Threatened Under the Endangered Species Act Submitted To: U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service Sacramento Fish and Wildlife Office 2800 Cottage Way, Room W-2605 Sacramento, CA 95825 Secretary of the Interior Department of the Interior 1849 C Street, N.W. Washington, DC 20240 Submitted By: Center for Biological Diversity Date: September 25, 2012 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Center for Biological Diversity petitions the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list the Clear Lake hitch (Lavinia exilicauda chi) as an endangered or threatened species under the federal Endangered Species Act. The Clear Lake hitch is a fish species endemic to Clear Lake, California and its tributaries. A large minnow once so plentiful that it was a staple food for the original inhabitants of the Clear Lake region, the Clear Lake hitch has declined precipitously in abundance as the ecology of its namesake lake has been altered and degraded. Clear Lake hitch once spawned in all of the tributary streams to Clear Lake. The hitch life cycle involves migration each spring, when adults make their way upstream in tributaries of Clear Lake, spawning, and then return to Clear Lake. The biologically significant masses of hitch were a vital part of the Clear Lake ecosystem, an important food source for numerous birds, fish, and other wildlife. Hitch in “unimaginably abundant” numbers once clogged the lake’s tributaries during spectacular spawning runs. Historical accounts speak of “countless thousands” and “enormous” and “massive” numbers of hitch. The Clear Lake basin and its tributaries have been dramatically altered by urban development and agriculture.

    6 historic resources 6.5 Policies and Implementing Actions The Sciaroni Winery and Distillery dates from the 1880s. A range of policies and implementing actions are outlined below and organized into the following topic areas: 1. Protected Historic Resources; and 2. Historic Resources Awareness The policies mandate, encourage or allow certain actions to be pursued throughout the duration of the General Plan. Together, they serve as strategic directions for City staff and partners, highlighting where time and resources should be focused. ST. HELENA GENERAL PLAN UPDATE 2035, APRIL 2016 | 6-13 6 historic resources topic area 1 PROTECTED HISTORIC RESOURCES Policies HR1.1 Preserve the City’s historic and cultural resources, so that they may contrib- ute to the special character and quality of the City and support its economic base.

  • Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan
    County of Lake Public Services Department Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan January 11, 2011 County of Lake Public Services Department Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan January 11, 2011 PREPARED FOR: County of Lake Public Services Department PREPARED BY: Alta Planning + Design COVER PHOTO BY: Rivers, Trails, and Ron Keas Conservation Assistance Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan Acknowledgements The development of the Konocti Regional Trails (KRT) Master Plan would not have happened without the tremendous amount of volunteer energy and time that went into this project. Holly Harris and Chuck Lamb were the catalysts for this trails effort and have been instrumental in moving the planning process forward over the past two years. Each has contributed countless hours in many capacities – from on-the-ground mapping of land- and water-based trails, to sharing the concept of a countywide network of trails with business owners, service organizations, and property owners, to developing content and creating the KRT web site. Many community members and organizations from across Lake County have stepped forward at various stages to provide valuable input by responding to surveys, attending workshops and meetings, and suggesting and prioritizing trail concepts. This input provided the basis for this plan, which exemplifies a successful grassroots, community-driven effort. Under the guidance and expertise of Barbara Rice of the National Park Service, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance Program, the KRT Team had a seasoned trails expert involved from day one. As part of a grant from NPS-RTCA, Ms. Rice provided technical assistance and support to the KRT Team throughout the process.
