Here is a stunning photo of the Calaveras Reservoir from the south looking north towards the New Calaveras Dam. Calaveras Reservoir helps supply drinking water to 2.7 million Bay Area residents.
Workers completed the road that leads to the dam.
We couldn't resist adding a picture of the new intake tower.
The seismically robust New Calaveras Dam is in full operation. It can now hold its historic storage capacity of 96,850 acre feet of water (31 billion gallons).
The dam was completed in May 2019. The team is finishing up a few minor items at the Dam, but the majority of construction activities are now complete.
See you around the valley!
