STORM UPDATE
We want to assure everyone that New Bullards Bar Dam and Reservoir is safe and fully operational right now and was not impacted by last week’s penstock incident. We have plenty of capacity to manage incoming flows at this time and are currently releasing approximately 1,000 cubic feet of water per second from our spillway. We will adjust throughout the week as needed.
New Bullards Bar continues to do what we built it to do – capture water during large storms to reduce the risk of flooding for the people of Yuba County.
