Document Description
The Project proposes to identify CAGO (Canada Goose [Branta canadensis] management techniques and deployment strategies to be implemented on an as needed basis. Selection criteria used to identify priority parks were based on their proximity to the lagoon system, presence of sports fields used by children, and history of conflicts between human use and CAGO presence. At this time, management of CAGO will focus on seven or 30 percent of the parks in the City: Gull Park, Erckenbrack Park, Marlin Park, Leo J. Ryan Park, Catamaran Park, Edgewater Park, Sea Cloud Park. All the parks included in the CAGO management plan are located along or near Foster City Lagoon, with the eastern portion of Sea Cloud Park enhanced as a wetland restoration area excluded from the CAGO Management Plan. The proposed management practices will be adaptive and include both habitat modification and hazing methodologies to deter CAGO from using City parks and the lagoon and encourage CAGO to relocate to more natural habitats.
