Irrigation Drives California Valley Water Project Expansion
The Central Valley project aims to equalize water resources between northern surplus and southern deficit areas. Northern waters are stored behind Shasta and Folsom dams, then released to the Delta Cross Channel and Tracy Pumping Plant, lifting water into the Delta Mendota Canal and onward to Mendota pool. From there San Joaquin water is retained behind Friant dam and diverted via the Friant Kern Canal to arid east-side fields as far as Bakersfield. The program, costing about 400 million dollars and 87 percent repaid from water and power, will complete this July, part of a broader reclamation effort yielding 5 million irrigated acres, billions in crop value and significant federal revenue.
