ALBANY BEACH RESTORATION AND PUBLIC ACCESS PROJECT

DESCRIPTION:THE EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT FERRY POINT PIER REMOVAL PROJECT (THE PROJECT) WILL REMOVE THE REMAINS OF THE FERRY POINT PIER FERRY TERMINAL AND ASSOCIATED PILINGS AND STRUCTURES - INCLUDING OVER 1,000 TOXIC CREOSOTE-TREATED TIMBER PILES AND 16,500 SQUARE FEET OF CREOSOTE-TREATED, OVER WATER, WOOD DECKING FROM THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY DELTA WATERSHED. THIS ACTION WILL REMOVE A SAFETY HAZARD, IMPROVE WATER QUALITY, AND BENEFIT THE SUBTIDAL HABITAT WITHIN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY. BECAUSE MOST OF THE PILES AT FERRY POINT CONTAIN CREOSOTE, THEIR REMOVAL WOULD BRING IMMEDIATE BENEFITS TO WATER QUALITY, NATURAL HABITATS FOR FISH SUCH AS THE PACIFIC HERRING, AND BAY ECOSYSTEMS OVERALL. THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES FEDERAL FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,200,000.ACTIVITIES:TO IMPLEMENT THE SAN FRANCISCO ESTUARY PARTNERSHIP COMPREHENSIVE CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT PLAN (CCMP), THE EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT FERRY POINT PIER REMOVAL PROJECT WILL ACCOMPLISH THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES AT THE FERRY POINT PIER: REMOVE APPROXIMATELY 1,040, 12-TO-14-INCH DIAMETER CREOSOTE-TREATED TIMBER PILES FROM THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT. REMOVING THE PILES WILL RESTORE APPROXIMATELY 800 SQUARE FEET OF BENTHIC SUBSTRATE. REMOVE APPROXIMATELY 16,500 SQUARE FEET OF OVERWATER CREOSOTE-TREATED WOOD DECKING. SUBRECIPIENT:NO SUBAWARDS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT.OUTCOMES:ANTICIPATED DELIVERABLES INCLUDE: REMOVAL OF APPROXIMATELY 1,040, 12-TO-14-INCH DIAMETER CREOSOTE-TREATED TIMBER PILES FROM THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT. REMOVAL OF APPROXIMATELY 16,500 SQUARE FEET OF OVERWATER CREOSOTE-TREATED WOOD DECKING. REMOVING THE PILES WILL RESTORE APPROXIMATELY 800 SQUARE FEET OF BENTHIC SUBSTRATE.

DESCRIPTION:THE EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT'S (EBRPD) PROJECT AT BROOK ROAD WILL CORRECT HINDERED PUBLIC ACCESS TO TILDEN REGIONAL PARK AND IMPROVE IMPAIRED FLOW OF THE WILDCAT CREEK. TILDEN REGIONAL PARK LIES WITHIN THE UPPER WILDCAT CREEK WATERSHED WHERE RUNOFF FROM THIS AREA OFTEN EFFECTS AREAS IN THE LOWER WATERSHED. THIS PROJECT IS FOCUSED ON REMOVING PHYSICAL BARRIERS THAT HINDER FLOW AND NEGATIVELY EFFECT WATER QUALITY. THIS MULTI-BENEFIT PROJECT WILL INCLUDE IMPROVEMENTS TO WALKWAY AND ROAD ACCESS FOR PEDESTRIANS AND MAINTENANCE VEHICLES WHILE REPAIRING AND PROTECTING RIPARIAN HABITAT FROM POLLUTION AND BANK EROSION. THIS ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT PROVIDES FULL FEDERAL FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $750,000. SEE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. ACTIVITIES:TO IMPLEMENT THE SAN FRANCISCO ESTUARY PARTNERSHIP COMPREHENSIVE CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT PLAN (CCMP), THE EBRPD WILL REMOVE A CONCRETE WEIR, RESTORE 500 LINEAR FEET OF CHANNEL BED AND BANK, INSTALL APPROXIMATELY 3,500 WATERSHED-BASED NATIVE PLANTS, CONSTRUCT TWO FREE-SPAN BRIDGES, AND UPGRADE THE PARKING LOT WITH A STORMWATER RETENTION AREA. THE WORK WILL KEEP VEHICLES, PEOPLE, AND DOGS OUT OF THE WETTED CHANNEL AND REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF RUNOFF AND TRASH ENTERING THE WATERWAY TO IMPROVE OVERALL WATERSHED HEALTH. IN ADDITION, INVASIVE PLANT REMOVAL AND NEW, NATIVE RIPARIAN PLANTINGS WILL HELP STABILIZE THE CREEK BANKS, REDUCING BANK EROSION, SEDIMENTATION, AND SCOURING TO ENHANCE WATER QUALITY DOWNSTREAM. SUBRECIPIENT:NO SUBAWARDS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT.OUTCOMES:ANTICIPATED DELIVERABLES INCLUDE: -THE INSTALLATION OF TWO (2) FREE SPAN BRIDGES, -REMOVAL OF A CONCRETE WEIR TO IMPROVE WATER FLOW, -REMOVAL OF CONCRETE CHANNEL THAT WILL ALLOW FOR INCREASED STORMWATER INFILTRATION, -THE INSTALLATION OF A SMALL STORMWATER RETENTION POND TO CAPTURE AND TREAT RUNOFF FROM THE NEARBY PARKING LOT, -REMOVAL OF INVASIVE PLANTS ALONG THE CREEK AND REPLANTING OF NATIVE SPECIES TO STABILIZE CREEK BANKS. EXPECTED LONG-TERM OUTCOMES INCLUDE HABITAT RESTORATION ALONG THE WILDCAT CREEK AND IMPROVED WATER QUALITY DOWNSTREAM. IMPROVED WATER QUALITY IN THE UPPER WATERSHED WILL INCREASE HABITAT HEALTH AND WATER QUALITY THROUGHOUT THE WATERSHED AS WELL AS POSITIVELY IMPACT THE COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE WATERSHED. THE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE THE NATIVE FISH AND PLANT SPECIES, INCLUDING STEELHEAD AND TROUT. THIS PROJECT WILL ALSO INCREASE ACCESS TO TILDEN REGIONAL PARK WHILE IMPROVING DOWNSTREAM WATER QUALITY FOR NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE WILDCAT CREEK WATERSHED.
