Restoring Roy's Pools - An Online Presentation by SPAWN

Описание: Community members joined SPAWN to learn and ask questions about an innovative, collaborative project in the San Geronimo Valley that benefits both landowners and salmon.

About the Project:
The Roy’s Pools Fish Passage and Floodplain Restoration Project involves removing the highest priority fish barrier in central California, creating and restoring approximately 5 acres of creek habitat with the construction of 0.25-mile long floodplain corridors along the former San Geronimo golf course property.

The project will provide year-round access to critical habitat for salmon, create valuable floodplain corridors for terrestrial wildlife movement, greatly increase the amount of trees for nesting birds, and will replace a failing pedestrian bridge with a new prefabricated bridge, linking trails and providing fish viewing over a wider, more complex and stable creek channel.

The project is a partnership between the California Department of Fish and Wildlife Fisheries Restoration Grant Program and NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service Restoration Center.
