Maybe contact Circuit Rider Productions regarding their approach…

Project Name: Napa River Watershed Giant Reed Removal & Riparian Restoration Plan
Grantor: California Department of Fish and Game,
Grantee: Circuit Rider Productions, Inc.

“In 2002, Circuit Rider Productions, Inc. was awarded a grant from the California Department of Fish and Game to identify giant reed populations in the main stem Napa River and its tributaries, to map and analyze these data, generate acreage figures, develop prioritized plans for control and restoration of invaded sites and develop estimates for control and restoration costs.”

Hi,
My name is Christian Commander and I am a graduate student at California State University, Sacramento. I’m very interested in looking at the plant Giant Reed (Arundo donax) and I am looking to do my research in the Napa River watershed. I am very passionate about conservation, and I am very excited about the prospect of this research.

I am writing to ask for your help in approaching land owners for access to creeks and dams (specifically in the St. Helena area) to examine Giant Reed. Furthermore, I am researching potential field sites and could use your help in finding both dammed and undammed creeks/tributaries in the Napa River watershed. I have already researched York Creek extensively, and I believe it would be a great potential research site. My work would not be intrusive, and I would of course be very respectful to both the land and the land owners.

I know the sensitivity required when approaching land or vineyard owners for doing research on their land, and because of this I would be truly grateful for your help.

I would love the opportunity to talk with a representative of Friends of the Napa River over the phone, or in person, to discuss my goals in more detail. I think this research would be a great opportunity, and I believe that your organization could greatly help me in my work. Thank you very much for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.

~Christian

Shouldn’t the Wetlands Edge Trail in American Canyon be included in the list of trails?
