Delta National Park

Large Owner Axis Exchange Authority

The Large Owner Axis Exchange Authority would coordinate development along the north-south axis of the Delta.

The LOA spans 30 miles between the two key elements of the Delta’s water distribution infrastructure. It is comprised of seven islands totaling approximately 70,000 acres. Its unique geography may or may not ultimately make it a conduit for freshwater delivery from the north.

Today, while the total population living on the Large Owner Axis lands is less than 500 persons, these islands, and the waterways that border them, are home to many important recreational practices, farm settlements, and points of historical interest. The perimeter of these islands will become a new recreational space tied together by a system of cable and reaction ferries, lodgecamps, and washout camps.

	Large Owner Axis Large Owner Axis diagram showing past or present island owners and their source of wealth. The Large Owner Axis is a chain of islands that connect the two most important elements of the Delta’s water redistribution infrastructure. The LOA is also the key axis of planned “through-Delta” water redistribution infrastructure proposals, whether or not these improvements are tied to the new Peripheral Canal proposal.
	Large Owner Axis Topography Most of the Large Owner Axis land is below sea level. Note how the middle of the Axis is lowest in elevation.
	Large property owners Mandeville, Bacon, Venice, Staten, and Bouldin Islands are all owned by a single family or corporation.
	Large Owner Axis Trail The Large Owner Axis Trail is correlated to the 2009 Peripheral Canal proposal’s “through-Delta component. The trail extends from the proposed Sacramento River diversion facility in the North Delta to the State and Federal Water Project pumps in the southwest Delta. From north to south, the elements of the trail system include: Stone Lakes NWR Trail, Snodgrass Slough Lodgecamp, Pear and Vine Trail, Delta Cross Channel Lodgecamp, Historic Settlements Trail, Staten Island Lodgecamp, Birdwatchers’ and Sportsmens’ Trail, Bouldin Island Lodgecamp, Habitat Mitigation Trail, Connection Slough Anglers’ Dam, Bacon Island Lodgecamp, Railroad Cut Anglers’ Dam, Channel Islands Trail, Double Canal Anglers’ Dam, Victoria and North Canals Estate Trail, and Clifton Court Forebay Lodgecamp
	Crop circles on Venice Island My brother Adam brought this interesting and curiosity-piquing place to my attention. Is this strange configuration a message being sent to outer space, or explained by more earthbound practices? Please help solve the mystery!
