The ReWild Mission Bay Project and De Anza NaturalReWild Mission Bay has a long term vision for wetland restoration in the northeast corner of the Bay. It is a plan that provides opportunities for plants, animals, and neighbors to thrive and survive as our climate warms and water levels rise. Where the City’s plan alternatives offer some options for wetland restoration, ReWild offers the largest restored wetlands area.De Anza Natural, proposed by the city of San Diego, provides amendments to the Mission Bay Park Master Plan. It offers opportunities for plants, animals. De Anza Natural also includes access points to invite the public to enjoy nature in our collective backyard, as well as many opportunities for active recreation. Sea level rise modeling developed by the United States Geological Survey for Mission Bay and De Anza has been taken into account during the development of De Anza Natural. This plan is being undertaken as part of a settlement of a San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board enforcement action.LEARN MOREVIEW C3 "WILDEST" SCHEMATIC PLAN |
