Stewardship
The San Francisco Bay NERR currently relies on our partner organizations,
China Camp State Park and the Solano Land Trust, to provide stewardship of the
reserve land and to advise us on how to build our stewardship program. The
stewardship programs within other National Estuarine Research Reserves involve a
range of activities including land acquisition, habitat mapping, ecological
restoration, resource inventories, biological monitoring, watershed management
projects, endangered species protection, prescribed fire management, recreation
management, regional planning, policy development and more. In addition to being
good stewards of the land and water encompassed within the reserves, NERRS
programs complete research that leads to better understanding of best management
practices and education programs to share the results of that research. For more
