Vegetative Management Report / Portion addressing Joaquin Miller Park

Current Vegetation Treatments
Current vegetation management practices include roadside treatment along Joaquin Miller Road along the entire southern edge of the park and along Skyline Boulevard through the park using hand labor or mechanical techniques. Vegetation is also managed by hand labor or mechanical techniques in the areas adjacent to the dirt parking lot to the west of the Chabot Space and Science Center, at the WUI along the park’s northwestern boundary, and around structures, the dog park, and the amphitheater in the developed portion of the park. Fire trails within the center of the park are cleared, and vegetation within 20 feet of the trails managed via hand labor. Oakland Trails volunteers, in collaboration with the Oakland Department of Public Works, have typically conducted the majority of trail maintenance work in the park. Adopt a Spot volunteers and groups such as Friends of Sausal Creek and Friends of Joaquin Miller Park maintain vegetation at adopted spots. Grazing is also conducted throughout the park in light, flashy fuel areas (grasslands, disturbed areas) to reduce and maintain surface fuel loads.

City of Oakland 2. Project Description
Approximately 150 acres of the property are currently grazed annually. Fire behavior modeling reveals a potential for extreme fire behavior in the property’s pine, eucalyptus, acacia, and mixed tree stands. Much of the southern and western portions of the park’s perimeter fall within the 100-foot and 300-foot buffers from existing structures.
