Post-Fire BMPs in Sonoma Creek (2019-2022)

Planning/Design
Implementing best management practices (BMPs) to address erosion and water quality concerns within private lands that were impacted by the 2017 wildfires. The goal of the work is to reduce sediment and other pollutant inputs into Sonoma Creek and its tributaries while assisting landowners with recovery and rehabilitation on their land from the fires.
