  "projectDescription": "The Cullinan Ranch restoration project  re-establish historic marsh lands that were converted into pasture lands over 50 years ago.  Restoration included  the removal of levees.In the late 1800â€™s, Cullinan Ranch was diked and drained for agricultural operations. Believed to be one of the first areas converted to agriculture in the North Bay due to the appearance of an â€œIsland number 1â€ label on historic maps, the area was farmed for oats and hay until the 1980â€™s, then sat fallow for 10 years.In 1991, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service purchased the property under the authority of the Endangered Species Act, with an intent to restore the area to tidal marsh for the benefit of federally listed species such as the salt marsh harvest mouse and Ridgwayâ€™s Rail (formerly California Clapper Rail).  After over a decade of planning, and several years of â€œon the groundâ€ restoration activity, Cullinan Ranch is now completed.In January 2015, three breaches were constructed in the northern perimeter levee thereby reconnecting over 1,200 acres of Cullinan Ranch to the surrounding tidal sloughs.",
