Watershed Restoration
In-stream Habitat Restoration
Restore the channel and floodplain by re-contouring the 0.3 acre site, installing grade control structures, and planting with native riparian trees and shrubs. Centennial Creek is a highly visible waterway flowing alongside a community greenbelt trail in Centennial Park located in Paso Robles, California. The Centennial Creek watershed provides tributary waters to the Upper Salinas River, which flows northward into the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and is listed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as an impaired water body, containing excess chloride and sodium from urban runoff and storm sewers (EPA, Clean Water Act 303d List).
