Center for Ecosystem Management and Restoration CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Marsh Creek Watershed Marsh Creek flows approximately 30 miles from the eastern slopes of Mt. Diablo to Suisun Bay in the northern San Francisco Estuary. Its watershed consists of about 100 square miles. The headwaters of Marsh Creek consist of numerous small, intermittent and perennial tributaries within the Black Hills. The creek drains to the northwest before abruptly turning east near Marsh Creek Springs. From Marsh Creek Springs, Marsh Creek flows in an easterly direction entering Marsh Creek Reservoir, constructed in the 1960s. The creek is largely channelized in the lower watershed, and includes a drop structure near the city of Brentwood that appears to be a complete passage barrier. Marsh Creek enters the Big Break area of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta northeast of the city of Oakley. Marsh Creek No salmonids were observed by DFG during an April 1942 visual survey of Marsh Creek at two locations: 0.25 miles upstream from the mouth in a tidal reach, and in close proximity to a bridge four miles east of Byron (Curtis 1942).

They continued to enjoy sports, parades, festivities, and celebrations. National Recovery Act projects brought the Court Street Post Office and the 1933 Court House. Three major construction projects in the Bay Area changed the demographics of the central county: the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges and the Caldecott Tunnel.

  • Adapting to Rising Tides Program
    The Adapting to Rising Tides Program San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission Adapting to Rising Tides Program Transitioned from leading a single county effort to a regional program that uses findings, processes, tools and relationships developed in ART Alameda to lead and support: efforts at multiple geographic scales efforts that are multiple or single sector For example, Hayward and Oakland/Bay Farm Island focus area studies, Capitol Corridor hot spots assessment, City of Benicia Adaptation Plan, Marin County shoreline planning, and regional resilience planning with ABAG, MTC, Caltrans and BART The Adapting to Rising Tides Approach • Integrates equity, economy, environment and governance from start to finish • Can be applied to different geographies, sectors and hazards • Convenes and engages a working group to build local capacity and ensure outcomes resonate locally • Results in a robust and transparent vulnerability assessment that makes the case for adaptation • Establishes a clear roadmap for actors at all scales to take action ART Program Projects ART Program Sector Local Regional Oakland/Alameda Resilience Study • Housing, community members, and community facilities are vulnerable to current and future flooding as well as seismic events. Impacts to these facilities could result in major consequences for people where they live, work, and recreate. • The Oakland Coliseum facilities, transportation assets, and neighborhood are vulnerable to both current and future flooding due to at- capacity flood control channels and rising Bay water levels. Tidal Creeks and Channels Project • Flooding hot spots will likely occur where transportation and community assets are adjacent to tidal creeks and channels • Further study is need to understand .
