Restoration Between Covers

The ink is dry on the new State of the Estuary Report 2000, a Restoration Primer for the San Francisco Bay Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta Estuary.

This bright green and blue 76-page report, published by the S.F. Estuary Project, summarizes restoration and rehabilitation recommendations drawn from the 29 presentations and 99 posters of the 1999 State of the Estuary Conference and on related research.

The report mixes general rehab advice for creeks, rivers and baylands with specifics on new scientific findings related to restoration and descriptions of actual on-the-ground restoration projects. It's packed with how-to information, maps, diagrams, data and designs. Readers can learn about everything from pickleweed propagation techniques and riverbed reconstruction to common reed control, mercury hotspots in the Delta and the pros and cons of breached levee restoration projects for native fish. The report also gives examples of ways to model impacts and measure success in restoration projects, including ecological indicators, performance criteria and GIS maps. Dozens of leading scientists, engineers and planners contributed to the report, among them Bill Jordan, Matt Kondolf, Luna Leopold, Sam Luoma, Scott McBain, Peter Moyle, Jefferey Mount, Lynne Trulio, Charles Simenstad, Phil Williams and Joy Zedler.
