Since 2000, the Santa Barbara Airport has been implementing the largest environmental restoration project on the south central coast as mitigation for the Airfield Safety Projects.
Approximately one-half of the Airport property - about 430 acres - is comprised of the Goleta Slough State Marine Park. As proud stewards of the Slough, the Santa Barbara Airport is actively managing 55-acres of the Park that is currently undergoing planting, maintenance, and monitoring, as part of this restoration effort. This coastal wetland is recognized as one of the few remaining saltmarsh habitats in California.
