Replacement of Lake Wohlford dam is 'shovel ready'


Print
The city of Escondido is moving forward with plans to replace the Lake Wohlford dam, a structure built of earth and rock that has stood at its present location since 1895.
Lake Wohlford is about 5 miles northeast of downtown Escondido, just beyond city limits in the unincorporated area of San Diego County, and the dam is owned by the city. The lake has long served the city both as a recreational asset for boaters and fishing enthusiasts, and as an emergency storage reservoir to supply drinking water in case of a drought.
After nearly a decade of planning, design work and environmental review, the project is ready to move forward once funding is secured, said Christopher McKinney, deputy city manager and Escondido’s utilities director. ....

St. Francis Dam Disaster 93 Years Later


St. Francis Dam Disaster 93 Years Later
The St. Francis Dam Disaster’s 93rd anniversary is still remembered to this day by the Santa Clarita Valley, along with other cities affected by the collapse.
93 years ago, the Saint Francis Dam broke and killed more than 400 people in Santa Clarita and the surrounding areas.
Filled with water supplied by the Los Angeles Aqueduct, which allowed water to flow south from the Owens Valley in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the St. Francis Dam provided Los Angeles with a reserve aquifer that could last at least a year.
On March 12, 1928, three minutes before midnight, the dam broke and sent a wall of water down San Francisquito Canyon through Castaic Junction, Santa Clarita, Piru, Camulos, Bardsdale, Fillmore, Santa Paula and Ventura before emptying into the Pacific Ocean between Oxnard and Ventura. ....
