Extensive reservoir and aqueduct systems are necessary to provide the water needed by 16 million people living in the urban coastal zone of Southern California, and to protect the region's $450 billion economy.
This brand new reservoir completes a $1.9 billion project that will cover nearly 4,500 acres and hold more than 260 billion gallons of precious water necessary to meet the region's future needs.
Come to the visitor center and view Native American relics and a mastodon and other fossilized remains uncovered as part of the reservoir construction.
