Project Details
Title: Del Puerto Canyon Reservoir Project
Summary: Del Puerto Water District (DPWD), in partnership with the San Joaquin River Exchange Contractors Water Authority (SJRECWA), proposes to construct a reservoir located on Del Puerto Creek in the foothills of the Coast Range Mountains west of Patterson, California and Interstate-5. The proposed reservoir would provide approximately 82,000 acre-feet (AF) of locally owned off-stream storage south of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Water would be pumped from the Delta-Mendota Canal (DMC) to be stored in the proposed reservoir and later discharged back into the DMC. The Project includes construction of a main dam, two saddle dams, a spillway, inlet/outlet works, conveyance facilities (including a diversion facility on the DMC, a pumping plant, underground pipeline and energy dissipation facilities at the DMC outfall, along with related appurtenant components) and electrical facilities (power supply line and electrical substation). Pursuant to the WIIN Act, Reclamation's action could be to participate in the Del Puerto Canyon Reservoir Project by funding up to 25% of total project costs, or investment proportional to Federal benefits.
