Document Title
Proposed Prado Basin Water Supply, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties Draft EIR
Document Type
EIR - Draft EIR
Received
Present Land Use
Flood control is primary land use. Secondary uses include recreation, water conservation, agricultural leases, and open space.
Document Description
The proposed project will allow storage of water between elevations 494 and 498 feet between the months of October and March. Current water conservations within Prado Basin allows for storage of water at elevation 494 feet during the winter months, and up to elevation 505 feet between March and October. The proposed project will allow storage of water at a higher elevation during the winter season, with the pool being evacuated before any storm flows enter the basin. This will ensure that there is no impact to the flood control capacity of the Prado Dam. The Draft EIS/EIR evaluates alternatives carried forward for detailed environmental analysis. The environmental impacts related to the proposed action and other alternatives are addressed in the Draft EIS/EIR.
