San Francisco Bay
Approximately 54 Square Miles Today
• Two Major Fresh Water Rivers to the East:
Sacramento and San Joaquin
• Drain 40% of the state

Regional Sediment Management Is…
The integrated management of littoral, estuarine, and riverine sediments to achieve balanced and sustainable solutions to sediment related needs.”
Regional sediment management recognizes sediment as a resource.
Sediment processes are important components of coastal and riverine systems that are integral to environmental and economic vitality.

Local Tributaries Sediment Flow Analysis
Quantify local tributaries contribution to Bay sediment budget
Corte Madera & Alameda Creeks Sediment gauges at head of tide and creek
mouth Sediment flow and flux between creek and
Bay Short term study – need funding to
continue First step in developing a predictive
numerical model for local tributaries Working with SFEI and USGS

Corte Madera Creek Study Wetland wave attenuation study
Resilience of tidal marsh to sea level rise and coastal flooding
Improve analytical tools for assessing flood risk
Improve guidance for local decision makers Use data to build and calibrate 2D and 3D
models Collect and analyze sediment cores for
sedimentation rates and peat accumulation
Working with USGS and Marin County Flood Control & Water Conservation District
