Floodplains and Parks
We believe in the importance of building parks that have a positive impact on both humans and wildlife. Through our floodplain restoration work, we are creating thriving habitats for diverse species. By preserving and revitalizing floodplains, we promote balance between human recreation and the preservation of natural ecosystems, ensuring the well-being and coexistence of both people and wildlife for generations to come.

Floodplains along the lower Tuolumne River are critical rearing habitat for baby salmon before they make their journey out to the sea. However, due to water demands from local and state governments, many salmon are cut off from the river channel by dams, levees, and lower flow releases. As part of our effort to restore the Tuolumne, we are removing levees and rebuilding the floodplains, that inundate more frequently Floodplains are not only habitats to a variety of species, but they are also great places to build adjacent riverside parks Coupling habitat restoration and park creation is one innovation that allows us to better mimic natural cycles and provide safe and accessible access to the River.
The Carpenter Road portion of the TRRP is currently a 75-acre vacant field. We are bringing this floodplain back to health by improving the surrounding riparian forest, purifying stormwater runoff, and reducing the amount of pollution that enters the Tuolumne. This project will reduce the risk of flooding for adjacent neighborhoods, most of which are underserved communities of color. In addition to the ecological benefits of floodplain restoration, we are constructing recreational amenities such as trails, river overlooks, and fishing platforms that residents can enjoy.
In the town of La Grange, we are spearheading efforts to build a new 200acre park and habitat restoration project. Through this project, we are improving floodplain and spawning habitat for salmon and Steelhead and riparian forests for wildlife. We are building new recreational facilities at a location that is currently a vacant field, revitalizing the region with better access to recreation and open space. This new park will anchor the western end of the Tuolumne River Parkway and create a regional amenity where communities can enjoy the Tuolumne River
