Project Description
Moosa Creek Mitigation Bank
This proposed mitigation bank would restore a portion of the former San Luis Rey Downs Golf Course to wetlands, riparian and listed species habitat. Project benefits include improved flood control, reduced water usage, and habitat connectivity.
Location:
At the confluence of the San Luis Rey River and Moosa Creek in the community of Bonsall, San Diego County
Size: 188 acres
Outcome:
A 71-acre portion of the property was sold to Tellurium Partners, a mitigation banking firm, in late 2017. The balance of the property was sold to the County of San Diego as an addition to the San Luis Rey Regional Park.
