Approximately 113 acres of the property is upland, seasonal wetland and tidal marsh, and 105 acres are open water, mudflats and shallow submerged San Francisco Baylands. The Plan calls for restoration and enhancement of up to 30 acres of tidal wetlands, up to 45 acres of seasonal wetland, 2 acres of riparian habitat along Rheem Creek and up to 25 acres of coastal prairie and upland buffer in the 113-acre portion of the property. The total project will restore about 100 acres of wetland and grassland habitat for a number of plants and animals, including the endangered California clapper rail. No plans have yet been developed for the remaining 105-acres of the property, however, this area would be considered for enhancement of eel grass beds, mud flat, tidal wetlands and off-shore bird roosting areas. Goals for public access include a public staging area, completing a key segment of the San Francisco Bay Trail, and providing improved access to San Francisco Bay. A land use plan for the Breuner property will provide for restoration and public access development. Buffers will be provided between public access areas and sensitive wildlife habitats. This would include boardwalks, fencing, landscape barriers, interpretive signage, and protection of wildlife habitats and public safety. Acquire and restore scarce coastal habitats, provide for public access, and close gap in SF Bay Trail.
