MINIMUM MANAGEMENT UNIT (approximately 70,000 acres) - This unit contains all areas
within the Seashore and the Northern District of GGNRA that are not included in the other ten
units. This includes the majority of the pastoral zone (roughly 19,000 acres), which is dominated
by grasslands grazed by cattle and large tracts of the Wilderness Area that support mosaics of
forest, scrub and grassland. The Unit also includes large bodies of water such as Drakes Estero,
Limantour Estero, Abbotts Lagoon, and Tomales Bay. The actions in this FMU include
vegetation clearing around buildings and along roads, and full suppression of all fires.
