Description
- Description
- The purpose of this project is to address restoration in the SAN francisco BAY through the removal of invasive spartina species to protect tidal mudflats. Removal of the invasive spartina creates space for revegetation with native plants, which support endangered species. Invasive spartina removal has so far been largely successful in the SAN francisco BAY, with 97% of the invasive plant cover removed, this project will work to bring that percentage closer to 100. This assistance agreement provides full federal funding in the amount of $2,500,000.00. Pre-award costs are approved back to april 1, 2024. Activities:to implement the SAN francisco estuary partnership comprehensive conservation and management plan (CCMP), this project will include two rounds of the following: monitoring program to confirm and track invasive spartina removal, removal of invasive spartina, propagation and installation of native tidal marsh plants, and a survey of the ridgway's rail. Subrecipient:no subawards are included in this assistance agreement.outcomes:the treatment areas include a significant portion of the remaining invasive spartina in the BAY. The removal of the plant and the installation of native marsh plants is expected to have a positive impact of the endangered and threatened species of animals that use the marsh as habitat.
