1 CALIFORNIA NAWCA S $100,277,613 $394,228, ,770 NAWCA GRANT AMOUNT TOTAL PARTNER CONTRIBUTION NUMBER OF S TOTAL ACRES California currently has 159 NAWCA projects either completed or underway. These projects have conserved a total of 887,770 acres of wildlife habitat. NAWCA funding of over $100.2 million stimulated partner contributions of more than $394.2 million. These figures do not include multi-state projects. SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO BAY WETLANDS RESTORATION PHASE II The San Francisco Bay Estuary is the nation's second largest estuary. It is a major stopover and wintering ground on the Pacific Flyway, and is perhaps the most biologically significant estuary on the Pacific Coast. Unfortunately, 85-90% of the historic wetlands were filled for urban development or altered for agriculture or salt production. Over a century of habitat loss has taken a toll on the health of this estuary and the wildlife that inhabit it Two major acquisitions of former salt production pond complexes have created an unprecedented opportunity for habitat restoration in South Bay. All of these lands are now in public ownership, providing land managers with an opportunity to reverse the dramatic decline in populations of marsh-dependent fish and wildlife by restoring significant amounts of tidal wetlands, while also balancing tidal habitat restoration with the needs of waterbirds that become adapted over time and generations to utilize the salt ponds. While managed for salt production, the ponds lost the high level of ecological productivity provided by tidal marshes, but they continue to provide habitat to species favoring high salinities and open water habitats. NAWCA funding provided to this project will directly benefit 1,449 acres of habitat in one of the most biologically significant areas of the Pacific Flyway, including tidal estuarine wetlands, shallow open water managed ponds, seasonal wetlands, and associated transitional and upland habitats. Waterfowl species that will benefit include cackling goose, northern pintail, mallard, lesser and greater scaup, American wigeon, redhead, canvasback, green-winged teal, ruddy duck, bufflehead, and Northern shoveler. Other birds that would benefit include shorebirds such as American avocet, black-bellied plover, black-necked stilt, marbled godwit, long- billed curlew, willet, whimbrel, shortbilled dowitcher, as well as song birds like common yellowthroat and song sparrow.
