BOLINAS LAGOON LIVING SHORELINE CA

CONTINUING AUTHORITY, SECTION 206

PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION

The Bolinas Lagoon CAP 206 would reconnect the degraded wetland-upland transition zone along the south end of the lagoon to restore natural ecological processes and enhance shoreline resilience against current and future impacts. Wetlands are among the most diverse and productive ecosystems. They provide essential services and supply all our fresh water. Bolinas Lagoon, a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance, provides habitat and ecosystem services for a wide range of species including 23 rare, threatened, and endangered animal and plant species and over 50,000 migratory birds. The project has significant sponsor and stakeholder support. The Greater Farallones Association (GFA) has developed this project in partnership with the Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary and Marin County Parks. GFA intends to formalize a partnership with Marin County Parks in the near-term to allow GFA to execute the project on County lands. The project is likely to have a positive FID and likely to execute an FCSA.
