  • I: Los Vaqueros Expansion Draft EIS/EIR
    APPENDIX D Plant Community and Special-status Species Descriptions Plant Communities in the Project Area The Los Vaqueros Watershed (Watershed) encompasses 18,535 acres of land and includes 20 distinct vegetation series (ESA, 2004; Sawyer and Keeler-Wolf, 1995). The following subsections describe plant communities both within and outside the Watershed. The analysis presents NCCP Plant Community / Habitat Type designations with Sawyer and Keeler-Wolf equivalent vegetation series in parentheses. Section 4.6 Biological Resources, Table 4.6-1, and Figure 4.6-2 of the Draft EIS/EIR describe the distribution and extent of these plant communities in the Watershed. Lacustrine (Open Water/Tidal Perennial Aquatic) Description Lacustrine habitat includes permanent deep-water bodies that do not support emergent vegetation and are not subject to tidal exchange, and tidal perennial aquatic that includes deepwater aquatic (greater than 3 meters deep), shallow aquatic (less than or equal to 3 meters deep), and unvegetated intertidal zones of estuarine bays, river channels, and sloughs (CALFED Bay-Delta Program, 2000a). Such features include lakes, ponds, oxbows, gravel pits, and flooded islands. Lacustrine habitat includes areas defined as tidal and nontidal perennial aquatic habitat. Submerged and floating aquatic plant species associated with lacustrine habitats include water lilies, pondweed, duckweed, and plankton. This habitat type is commonly used by a wide variety of birds, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians for reproduction, food, water, and cover (CALFED Bay-Delta Program, 2000a). Historical and Current Distribution Lacustrine habitat occurs in some low-lying areas of the Bay-Delta estuary. Historically, most wetlands in the Bay-Delta estuary were subject to tidal influence, and nontidal perennial aquatic habitats were uncommon.

  • Rancho to Reservoir Chapter 4 (PDF)
    148 From Rancho to Reservoir CHAPTER 4 FULL CIRCLE: LOS VAQUEROS FROM 1929 TO THE PRESENT Within the first decades of the 20th century, agricultural land at Los Vaqueros had become marginal. Without irrigation it could not support specialty crops or orchards, and the hilly terrain precluded widespread mechanization. The subsistence-based mixed farms that had developed on the Vasco and in the Black Hills were beginning to be anachronistic, and it became clear that the most efficient use of the land was for grazing. Gradually, many of the Los Vaqueros farm families packed up their belongings and moved on—some to nearby towns, and some to ranches of their own. On the Vasco, tenant arrangements under Mary Crocker and Kate Dillon had been gener- ous, so attrition was slower, but change was inevitable in the volatile economy of the first half of the 20th century. By the late 1980s, when the Contra Costa Water District began acquiring the lands of the watershed, much of the old rancho and adjoining property was once more sparsely settled and given over to livestock grazing. LAND SALES The nationwide economic depression that began with the stock-market crash of 1929 had a grave effect on agriculture in California. Crop prices fell dramatically, and cereal growers needed at least 400 harvested acres to support a family—double the amount of land they had needed at the beginning of the century. New Deal crop-subsidy programs inadvertently favored large farms over small interests by basing awards on the absolute size of the operation as opposed to propor- tional needs of families.
