Narrative:

After being cleared direct to mitoe and cleared for the visual approach to runway 29 in oak; we were descending from 3300 ft to 2500 ft MSL. At approximately 2800-2700 ft MSL; the egpws warning activated and I initiated the recovery procedure. About 2 seconds later; the terrain warning terminated and the visual approach and landing to runway 29 were completed without further incident.
