Document Description
The Santa Clara Valley Water District owns 14 regulated water retention facilities that are operated under licenses granted by the CA Division of Safety of Dams. Twelve of these facilities include earthen dams with regulated reservoirs, one is an earthen dam with a covered reservoir at a water treatment plant, and one is an in-stream retention facility to enhance groundwater recharge. The District maintains these dam facilities to ensure public safety and adequate system functionality, and to ensure safe and reliable reservoir operation and water delivery. A number of different maintenance activities must be performed on the dam facilities, both on a defined schedule as preventative maintenance and on an as-needed basis as corrective maintenance.
