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).

In 1969, the Legislature acted upon the Commission’s recommendations in the Bay Plan and revised the McAteer-Petris Act by designating the Commission as the agency responsible for maintaining and carrying out the provisions of the Act and the Bay Plan for the protection of the Bay and its great natural resources and the development of the Bay and shore- line to their highest potential with a minimum of Bay fill.

An environmental ethic guides us in all that we do. Mission The East Bay Regional Park District will achieve the above vision in the following ways: • Provide a diversified system of regional parklands, trails, and parkland-related services that will offer outstanding opportunities for creative use of outdoor time. • Acquire and preserve significant biologic, geologic, scenic, and historic resources within Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. • Manage, maintain and restore the parklands so that they retain their important scenic, natural, and cultural values. • Interpret the parklands by focusing educational programs on both the visitor’s relationship to nature, natural processes, ecology, history of the parklands, and the value of natural conditions. • Support the development and retention of well-trained, dedicated, and productive employees. • Improve access to and use of the parks by members of groups that have been underrepresented, such as disabled, economically disadvantaged, and elderly visitors. • Balance environmental concerns and outdoor recreational opportunities within regional parklands. • Provide recreational development that fosters appropriate use of parklands while preserving their remoteness and intrinsic value. • Create quality programs that recognize the cultural diversity represented in the region. • Participate in partnerships with public agencies, nonprofit organizations, volunteers, and the private sector to achieve mutual goals. • Provide leadership to help guide land use decisions of East Bay governments that relate to the District.
