| 010 | 2004 | Active | Point Pinole Regional Shoreline Contra Costa County |
| Description | |||
| Point Pinole Regional Shoreline is a 2,315-acre park owned by the East Bay Regional Parks District. It is located to the west of the city of Richmond, in Contra Costa County. Point Pinole opened to the public in 1973 after the property was acquired from Bethlehem Steel. Bethlehem had acquired the land in the early 1960s from Atlas Powder Co., one of several firms that had manufactured gunpowder and dynamite there for almost 100 years. The park occupies a short peninsula composed of a main upland core with open, grassy parklands interspersed with predominantly eucalyptus woodlands. Along the northern portion of the park, a wide border of high marsh pickleweed characterizes Whittell Marsh, Sub-Area 10a. The southern portion of the park, Sub-Area 10b is a narrow band of tidal marsh grading quickly over a 10-20 meter span from high marsh pickleweed to sandy mudflat. The non-native Spartina infestations at Point Pinole are in the early stages of establishment. The individual locations of these plants are scattered within both of the Sub-Areas, but their overall acreage is small, at under 0.7 acre. The primary treatment method at this site is aquatic herbicide, which will be applied by backpack sprayer. The partner on this site is the East Bay Regional Parks District. | |||
