Wetlands Restoration Opportunities in Region 4

Los Angeles River – DeForest Wetlands Currently a flood control detention basin Adjoins the Dominguez Gap wetlands basin Together they will be the largest habitat restoration project to date on LA River Will treat dry season runoff and storm flow before discharging to LA River

Santa Monica Bay - Topanga Canyon Ck & Lagoon Multi-phased program Restore riparian and lagoon habitats Improve steelhead trout passage Improve sediment transport and delivery Improve water quality

Ventura River – Stewart Canyon Creek Remove non-native plant species Improve steelhead trout passage Improve red-legged frog habitat Improve hydrologic capacity of stream
