Abstract |
Construction and operation of the English Ridge Reservoir, as proposed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, together with the naturally available flows from the remaining drainage area, will provide flows in the Eel River downstream from English Ridge Reservoir that will be sufficient to maintain adequate water quality for the fishery and other beneficial uses of the river's waters. The planned diversion of stored water through Clear Lake will enhance the water quality of Clear Lake, and thereby improve its aesthetic and recreational values. (Modified author abstract) |
