Boaters told to leave Folsom Lake
Boaters told to leave Folsom Lake
The water level at Folsom Lake is dropping by nearly half a foot each day, and soon boaters who rent a slip at Folsom Lake Marina will have pull their boats out.
Marina managers told the tenants they should plan on removing their boats from the water by around Aug. 16, which is when the lake is expected to sink to an elevation of 412 feet above sea level. Below that elevation, water at the marina's slips becomes too shallow to dock boats.
The docks will eventually come to rest on the lake bottom as water continues to be released from Folsom Dam for fish habitat, agriculture, power generation and drinking water supplies downstream.
