The Board of Directors of the Center for Ecosystem Management and Restoration (CEMAR) has concluded that 2016 will be CEMAR’s last year of operations. When CEMAR’s founder and Executive Director Andrew Gunther announced his intention in 2015 to step down as of June 30, 2016, the Board of Directors determined that several other CEMAR staff were also planning professional transitions. The Board decided that such a significant loss of key staff made it unlikely that CEMAR would be able to maintain the quality and effectiveness of our operations.

We are proud of our programmatic accomplishments and the collaborative relationships we have created, and how we have demonstrated the value of scientific knowledge in pursuit of the sustainable management of coastal ecosystems. This website will continue to be maintained into the future so that regional practitioners can access the information it contains.

Clean and Healthy Bay Measure on June Ballot

The San Francisco Bay Restoration Authority voted to place the San Francisco Bay Clean Water, Pollution Prevention, and Habitat Restoration Program, known as the Clean and Healthy Bay Ballot Measure, on the June 2016 ballot in all nine Bay Area counties. Passage of the measure will require approval by 2/3 of the total voters casting ballots cumulatively across all nine Bay Area counties in the June 2016 election. The measure would raise $500 million over 20 years to fund critical Bay restoration and flood protection projects. For more information go to: https://www.savesfbay.org/secure/restore
