Nimbus Dam, on
the American River 7 miles below Folsom Dam formed Lake
Natoma to reregulate the releases for power made through
Folsom Powerplant.
The Nimbus Fish Hatchery was built on the
left bank below the dam to compensate for the spawning
areas of salmon and steelhead that were inundated by construction
of Nimbus Dam.
Nimbus Dam is a feature of the Central Valley
Project - American River Division - Folsom and Sly Park
Units. Open year-round for
fish rearing and educational actvities. Fish spawning demonstrations
provided during the salmon and steelhead runs |
