Project Description

This project addressed the invasion of Giant Reed (Arundo Dorax), Tamarisk and other non-native species in the lower Santa Clara River floodplain and is re-establishing native riparian plant and animal communities. Through systematic and continual effort, the project restored approximately 30 acres of riparian habitat in the Santa Clara River floodplain. This project is part of a lower watershed-wide plan to control invasive species and restore floodplain processes in the Santa Clara River between Sespe Creek and Santa Paula Creek and is a cooperative effort among several Santa Clara River Steelhead Coalition members. Project activities were led by CalTrout and Santa Clara River Conservancy with support from University of California–Santa Barbara’s RIVRLAB, and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation.
