First as a volunteer for Sierra Club and then as a staff member of Save San Francisco Bay Association, Marc Holmes has been working tirelessly for over thirteen years to restore wetlands around San Francisco Bay. As The Bay Institute's Baylands Restoration Program Manager, Mr. Holmes is recognized as an expert in wetland protection, policy and regulation, and has demonstrated an uncommon ability to develop long-term collaborative approaches to rejuvenating wetlands of San Francisco Bay. In 1987, Mr. Holmes worked directly with then Congresswoman Barbara Boxer to secure funding to purchase a 1,500-acre diked-historic wetland near Mare Island known as Cullinan Ranch. He has become one of the most outspoken and effective proponents for reconnecting thousands of acres of former tidal marsh back to the Bay and has convinced many that this represents our best opportunity to reestablish the ecological vitality of the Bay.
