A starting place could be the addition of 4-6 additional watersheds in different parts of south county. (Potentially: Mission Creek Canyon, Arroyo Burro Creek [near Los Positas], Sycamore Creek, and the Montecito creeks). Additional watersheds in both north and south county should be inventoried, prioritized based on assessed fire risk
