By FMA Emerging Professionals

Overview

A tour of the Stivers Lagoon Restoration Project, which involves the creation of 40 acres of floodplain and off-channel enhancements!

Join us for a tour of the Stivers Lagoon Restoration Project, which involves the creation of 40 acres of floodplain and off-channel enhancements to restore Stivers Lagoon Marsh, a former tectonic sag pond that was ditched and drained for agriculture. The project represents a rare opportunity in Fremont and the urban East Bay to enhance native habitat by creating an extensive mosaic of off-channel features including floodplain terraces, seasonal and perennial ponds, and increasing groundwater levels to restore and support adjacent marsh areas. Bring your own lunch to enjoy on the nearby picnic tables after the tour! Thank you to Balance Hydrologics for hosting the tour.


Please note the tour will be from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM followed by a bring your own picnic lunch from 1:00 PM to 1:30 PM (optional).


Park on the creek side of the lot and meet where the new bike path begins!
