Feather Ifirer. South Fork. PlumiiH Voiinti/. Wyandotte Irrigation District. 

 Hydroelectric power ;nid irrigation project involving tvi'O dams (at Little 

 Grass Valley and above present Lost Creek Reservoir) with storage capacity 

 of 120,000 acre feet with accompanying conduits and powerhouses. 



Lake AJmanor, Plumas County. Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Dam 

 forming Lake Almanor, a storage reservoir on the North Fork of the Feather 

 River. The company plans to raise this reservoir to an elevation of 4,500 feet 

 if conditions are found to be safe. Exploration drilling at the dam now in

 fishing is being cniKluctcd in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation and 

 the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 



Sacramento River, Tehama County. U. S. Corps of Engineers. Storage reser- 

 voir at Iron Canyon. 



Keswick Dam, Shasta County. U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. Fluctuation 

 control dam for Shasta Dam. This problem is complicated by copper pollution. 



Silver Creek, El Dorado County. U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. Union Valley

 dams which would affect South Fork Silver, Big Silver, and main Silver 

 creeks have been pi'uposed. 



Middle Fork Stairislaus River, Tuolumne County. South San Joaquin and 

 Oakdale Irrigation Districts. Hydroelectric power and irrigation projects 

 involving large dams and reservoirs at Beardsley and Donnells Flats, with 

 accompanying conduits and powerhouses, which would affect sections of the 

 Middle Fork Stanislaus River. 



Park Creek, El Dorado County. U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. Proposed Sly 

 Park Reservoir and Camp Creek diversion for irrigation and domestic water 

 supplies. 



North Fork Stanislaus River, Tuolumne County. Pacific Gas and Electric

Middle Fork Eel River, Mendocino County. G. L. Carrico. Hydroelectric and 

 irrigation project involving large dams on the Middle Fork Eel River, a tribu- 

 tary of the North Fork Eel River, and a tributary of the Middle Fork Eel

 above the mouth of W^illow Creek, with accompanying conduit and powerhouse 

 (No. 4), which would affect 11 miles of the San Joaquin River. 



Big Dry Creek, Fresno County. U. S. Army, Corps of Engineers. The Big Dry 

 Creek flood control project involves a dam, dikes and reservoir for which a 

 permanent pool for warm-water fish was recommended. 



Mono Creek, Fresno County. Southern California Edison Company. Hydro- 

 electric power project involving a large dam and reservoir at Vermilion Valley, 

 which would affect most of the easily accessible section of Mono Creek. 



Kings River, Fresno County. U. S. Army, Corps of Engineers. The Pine Flat 

 multiple purpose project, predominantly flood control, involves a large dam 

 and reservoir at I'ine Flat which will affect directly the lower portion of the 

 Kings River, but which through re-regulation of discharge permits hydro- 

 electric development upstream and thus indirectly will affect the entire Kings 

 River drainage.
