Westview Jerseys Dairy Water Conservation Project

Completed
The objective of this project was to provide an alternative water source of 7,000-gallon/day for a dairy along the Salmon Creek mainstem in the Bodega Valley with the construction of a 1.4-million gallon rainwater catchment pond. The system completely eliminated all diversions from a near-channel well to preserve summer streamflow in this critical salmonid stream throughout the May-October dry season.
