In-Stream Flow Enhancement
The Campbell property is a rural residential parcel located in the upper Green Valley Creek watershed, with two residences and a small vegetable growing operation. A 69,000-gallon roof rainwater catchment system was constructed to offset summer diversions from a shallow alluvial well located on the bank of upper Green Valley Creek, which supplies all water for domestic, landscaping and agricultural irrigation uses.
