Point Reyes National Seashore

Hanford was awarded the Critical Dune Habitat Restoration project at Point Reyes National Seashore through the RFP process in the winter of 2010/2011. The project was designed to restore approximately 76 acres of native dune habitat, primarily through removal of the invasive European beachgrass and iceplant. The project will benefit the federally endangered snowy plover and several species of federally protected dune plants. The work area is immediately west and south of Abbott’s lagoon, north of the Point Reyes lighthouse.
