Resource Management Plan Background
The development of a comprehensive resource management plan (CRMP) for the Dry Creek watershed is a necessary element to address the impacts on an urbanizing watershed and to improve the ecological health of the Bay-Delta Region. The CRMP includes the following elements:
- Identifies areas of conflict and opportunities for resolution
- Develops recommendations on program activities to improve the watershed consistent with the project’s objectives
- Develops recommendations on future restoration/enhancement projects
- Prioritizes the recommended projects and activities and prepare a series of alternatives for implementation
- Provides a final recommended list of activities and restoration/enhancement projects to be funded by future funding sources
Watershed Analysis
The watershed analysis addresses:
- Fish passage constraints
- Inventory of water intake devices that have the potential to threaten anadromous fish
- Riparian habitat
- Sedimentation
- Water flow rates during critical fish passage time periods
- Water quality
Field Surveys
Field surveys analyzed:
- Fisheries habitat conditions
- Riparian vegetation conditions (structure and composition)
- Stream flow characteristics (e.g, seasonal flow regimes, extreme event characteristics, and agricultural water deliveries)
- Water quality
