Document Description
UCSB's Coal Oil Point Reserve, located on West and North Campuses, is proposing to restore approximately 50 acres of exotic grasslands into the original native coastal scrub and grassland habitats. Restoration includes removal of exotic plant species and re-vegetation with native species. Vegetation removal and planting would be done by hand. Exotic grassland will be replaced with native grassland. A combination of mowing and solarization by black plastic will be used to remove the non-native grasses and then native seedlings will be planted by hand. Sprout and young eucalyptus trees will be removed and the larger trees will be pruned up to 4 meters from the ground to encourage growth of native grasses. The restoration will occur in phases over approximately 10 years.
