Document Description
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation seeks to add a new fish screened pumping plant located approximately 1,770 feet upstream of the existing point of diversion for the Tehama-Colusa (TC) and Corning Canals on the Sacramento River above the Red Bluff Diversion Dam (RBDD). The purpose of the new pumping plant is to fulfill conservation goals established by Section 3406(b)(10) of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act, which required the Secretary of the Interior to develop and implement measures to minimize fish passage problems for adult and juvenile anadromous fish at the RBDD. The fish screen is approximately 1,100 feet in length and runs along the right side of the Sacramento River where the pumping facility will be located. The pumping plant and associated features will consist of trash racks, flat plate fish screens, a forebay, the pump station, a siphon under Red Bank Creek, and piping to convey water to the TC Canal Sedimentation basin.
