Project Info

Title

Peace II Project, Chino Groundwater Basin

Description

The Basin is located primarily in San Bernardino County, with a lesser portion of the project area overlying Riverside County and a very small section located in eastern Los Angeles County. Chino Basin is bounded: On the north by the San Gabriel mountains and the Cucamonga Basin; On the east by the Rialto-Colton Basin, Jurupa Hills, and Pedley Hills; On the south by the La Sierra area, the Santa Ana River and the Temescal Basin; and On the west by the Chino Hills, Puente Hills, and the Pomona and Claremont Basins. The principal drainage course for the Basin is the Santa Ana River. It flows 69 miles across the Santa Ana Watershed from its origin in the San Bernardino Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. The Santa Ana River enters the Basin at the Riverside Narrows and flows along the southern boundary to the Prado Flood Control Reservoir where it is eventually discharged through the outlet at Prado Dam into Orange County. Fundamentally, the purpose of this Addendum addresses a proposal by watermaster for a temporary increase in the Safe Storage Capacity from 500,000 AF to 600,000 AF for the period of July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2021.
