San Antonio Road\, Los Altos DESCRIPTION:

All too often, conservation efforts focus on the exclusion of human activi ties, or the repair of human impacts. All these stories typically place hum ans in a negative light. This presentation will attempt to highlight cases where the most effective tool for restoration is human effort, particularly in areas where habitat is highly fractured and historic landscape scale pr ocesses are defunct. We will look at a heterogeneous disturbance hypothesis , as well as the role of humans in a wild landscape and how these two theor ies make for a more cohesive and powerful role for humans. We will discuss how we apply effective management in 2 cases with rare flora and fauna: 1) Serpentine Prairie, Oakland, 2) Twin Peaks, San Francisco. Through this jou rney we hope to reconsider success criteria and possibly redefine sustainab ility for future restoration efforts. 

Lech Naumovich was first infected with botany at Fort Ord and has meandered alon g the winding path of a conservation botanist since 1998. He has worked as a CNPS-East Bay Conservation Analyst, the Restoration Coordination for Fort Hunter Liggett, a private botanical consultant, an independent conservatio n photographer, and now as the director of a Restoration Ecology institute. He is well versed in Bay Area, Central Coast, and Desert botany throughout California. He recently co-authored the 2nd Edition of the “Annotate d Checklist of the East Bay Flora” with Barbara Ertter and A Guideboo k to Botanical Priority Protection Areas of the East Bay with Heath Bartosh and Laura Baker.
