Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2018-0085-R6, pursuant to section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, the Coachella Valley Water District. The Project involves the construction of three erodible earthen berms placed across the bottom of the Whitewater River Stormwater Channel to serve as groundwater replenishment basins. Colorado River Water will be used to fill the replenishment basins. The berms tie into a reinforced concrete diversion structure at the northernly concretelined embankment of the Whitewater River Stormwater Channel. The concrete diversion structure allows low flows which exceed the capacity of the ponds to bypass the facility.
