Document Description
The District and Fresno County are proposing to construct a new canal turnout that would divert and deliver water from the FKC into Big Dry Creek (BDC), which would provide direct recharge along the BDC channel north and east of the City of Clovis as well as other water deliveries downstream for recharge and other beneficial uses. The City of Clovis, and the unincorporated and mostly rural residential areas of the County of Fresno, would also benefit from the Project.
