Water is diverted from the Rubicon River implementation a into Rubicon ReselVoir, then transferred via tunnel to Rockbound Lake. Rockbound Relicensing Search Lake naturally flows into Buck Outside Links Island ReselVoir, from which il is released, via tunnel, into Help Loon Lake Reservoir. Loon Lake water travels 1,200 feet straight down to the underground Loon Lake Powerhouse (82 MW). • Water discharged from Loon Lake Powerhouse is conveyed via a 3.8­ mile-long tunnel to Gerle Creek Reservoir. Water is diverted from Garle Creek Reservoir, via Garle Canal, 10 Robbs Peak ReselVoir, located on the South Fork Rubicon River. • From Robbs Peak Reservoir, water is conveyed 10 Robbs Peak Powerhouse (29 MW), located on the Union Valley ReselVoir shoreline. From Robbs Peak Powerhouse, water enters Union Valley ReselVoir, located on Silver Creek. Ice House Reservoir diverts water from Ihe South Fork Silver Creek to Jones Fork Powerhouse (11.5 MW), also located on the Union Valley ReselVoir shoreline. • Water is released from Union Valley ReselVoir through Union Valley Powerhouse (46.7 MW) inlo Junclion Reservoir. From Junction Reservoir, water travels through Ihe Jaybird Tunnel to the Jaybird Powerhouse (144 MW). Water then enters the Camino Reservoir, and is diverted to the Camino Powerhouse, with supplemental water added 10 the conveyance tunnel from UARP Relicensing Project Maps Page 2 of 3 Brush Creek Reservoir. • Water exiting the Camino Powerhouse (150 MW) is discharged into the South Fork American River, just upstream of Slab Creek Reservoir. At the base of Slab Creek Dam is a small generator used to produce power (0.4 MW) from the water released for minimum instream flows. Water diverted from Slab Creek Reservoir is conveyed to the finai and largest powerhouse ­ White Rock (224 MW). At about 1,000 feet in elevation, the White Rock Powerhouse discharges into the South Fork American River just upstream of Chili Bar Reservoir, part of the Chiii Bar Hydroelectric Project, owned and operated by the Pacific Gas & Electric Company. The Crystal Basin Recreational Area The Crystal Basin Recreational Area Map (PDF 80k) USFS Dispersed Recreation Zones (PDF 4.8mg) The Eldorado National Forest Crystal Basin Recreation Area spans 85,000 acres of pine and fir forests along the wesfern slope of the Sierra Nevada. Capped by the majestic, granite peaks of the Crystal Range and traversed by lakes, reservoirs and streams, the Crystal Basin's four seasons and varied terrain offer a diverse range of outdoor adventure. The three UARP storage reservoirs ­ Union Valley, Ice House and Loon Lake ­ and their associated recreation facilities serve as a focal point for the recreation area. These recreation facilities help meet the regional pUblic demand for high quality outdoor experiences and have been planned and located in a manner to protect the long-term infegrity of fhe forest's natural resources. Facilities include more than 700 campsites (including group, boat or hike-in, and equestrian), fishing piers, paved bicycle trails, sanitation stations for recreational vehicles, a cross-country ski chalet, and two information stations. As part of a cooperative venture with Ihe Forest Service, SMUD built most of these faciiities and contributes funds annually to the Forest Service for facility operation and maintenance. In addition to the cooperative venture between SMUD and the Forest Service, other agencies and community-based organizations have made significant contribulions.

  • El Dorado County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
    El Dorado County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan July 2018 Adopted by FEMA, March 2019 EDC Board Of Supervisor's Adoption, April 23, 2019 This Page Left Intentionally Blank Executive Summary The purpose of hazard mitigation is to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from hazards. El Dorado County developed this Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) update to make the County and its residents less vulnerable to future hazard events. This plan was prepared pursuant to the requirements of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 so that El Dorado County would be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Pre-Disaster Mitigation and Hazard Mitigation Grant programs. The County followed a planning process prescribed by FEMA, which began with the formation of a hazard mitigation planning committee (HMPC) comprised of key County representatives, and other regional stakeholders. The HMPC conducted a risk assessment that identified and profiled hazards that pose a risk to the County, assessed the County’s vulnerability to these hazards, and examined the capabilities in place to mitigate them. The County is vulnerable to several hazards that are identified, profiled, and analyzed in this plan. Floods, levee failures, wildfires, and severe weather are among the hazards that can have a significant impact on the County. Based on the risk assessment, the HMPC identified goals and objectives for reducing the County’s vulnerability to hazards. The goals and objectives of this multi-hazard mitigation plan are: Goal 1: Minimize risk and vulnerability of El Dorado County to the impacts of natural hazards and protect lives and reduce damages and losses to property, economy, public health and safety, and the environment.
