Document Description
Detention Basin No. 1 was built by SJAFCO in 1996 to protect lands within the City of Stockton and County of San Joaquin from flooding events associated with Mosher Creek. During non-flood periods (mid-April through October of each year) Stockton East Water District will divert water through Mosher Slough into the Detention Basin and allow it to percolate to the groundwater. Recharge operations will cease at any time if there is athreat of floodig in and out around this area, or at the request of SJAFCA. The work will be completed under the umbrella of the Farmington Groundwater Recharge and Seasonal Habitat Study, and is being financed by federal, state and local funds. Required improvements would include the addition of a board to the existing Mosher Slough Dam owned by Woodbridge Irrigation District, grading the bottom of the Basin, and the possible installation of a temporary pump along Mosher Slough at the Detention Basin.
