Multiple phases needed for full restoration of full tidal action.The McNabney marsh is part of the larger Peyton Slough Marsh complex. Mc Nabney Marsh has been separated from the whole of the marsh complex since the early 1900's. This has restricted its ability to flood and drain with the tides and produced less than optimal conditions as a marsh habitat. The southern portion (the part along the entry road to the treatment plant) of the marsh will not drain completely. In the northwest portion of the marsh, the water exchages rapidly, and salinity remains low. This creates shallow, constantly flooded conditions that cattails thrive in. This condition enhances cattail growth at the expense of other desireable vegetaion. Curtailing cattail growth is a main concern and problem for marsh management. Management strategies for McNabney Marsh affect Peyton Slough and the smaller downstream marshes Martinez Marsh, Rhodia Marsh, Shore Terminals Marsh and Peyton Hill Marsh. This project provides for the management of McNabney Marsh and associated marshes. It also provides a forum for advice, discussion and non-binding decisions through the Peyton Slough Wetlands Advisory Committee.
