This is a picture of Miller Creek at the Dixie School taken on January 7, 1973. During 1973 this section of the creek was graded and the landuse was changed from agricultural to subdivisions. Since then significant natural revegetation has occurred at this site. Photo provided courtesy of the Marin County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program.

In this photo Miller Creek is shown where it flows through upper Lucas Valley Estates. Philip Williams and Associates conducted a restoration project at this previously incised area in the mid 1980s, which included grading the channel to accommodate a 100 year flood flow. This picture was taken in January 1988 and since the late 1990s this area has become heavily vegetated. Photo provided courtesy of the Marin County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program.
