Sept 2013 - nowLead geographer/environmental plannerMonitoring past projects and seeking new challenges!The San Rafael Tidelands, that first got protections in the 1980s from City of San Rafael when I was Planning Director there, have been recognized as part of a Wetland of International Importance!"The Ramsar Convention on International Wetlands added the San Francisco Bay estuary and many associated Marin wetlands to the list of wetlands of international importance. The Ramsar Convention provides a framework for voluntary international cooperation for wetland conservation. The US signed onto the Ramsar Convention in 1987. The inclusion of the San Francisco Bay estuary represents the nation's 35th "wetland of importance." Among the areas of the San Francisco Bay that are included in this designation are the San Rafael Tidelands, Tiscornia Marsh and Marin Islands, which are located within the San Rafael Bay. These areas have been long recognized by the Marin environmental organizations and fish and wildlife agencies for their wildlife value, particularly for waterfowl. San Rafael has been presented with a certificate from the Ramsar Convention confirming this designation and international status." Show less
