Year 3 Marsh Monitroing Report Available

April 3, 2009

Following 2004 excavation of contaminated sediments in Western Stege Marsh at the RFS, the campus initiated a marsh restoraiton program designed to restore the marsh as habitat for the endangered California clapper rail and associated flora and fauna. Results of the third year of monitoring variables in the marsh, including marsh channel elevations, water and sediment quality, vegetation, and clapper rail observations are available in the Year 3 Monitoring Report for the Western Stege Marsh Restoration Project. For more information on clapper rail conservation and marsh restoration, visit the Restoration Page of this website.
