In 2017, it is likely that no other water story grabbed as many headlines in California and across the country as the flood incident at Oroville Dam, the centerpiece of the State Water Project and its largest water storage facility.

On our upcoming Northern California Tour, we will spend time at the Oroville Dam visitor’s center and meet with California Department of Water Resources staff. You’ll see drone footage from February’s flood incident, learn the engineering background on what led to it, and hear about plans to stabilize the spillway before the next winter storms and to finalize repairs by 2018.

This is only one stop on our three-day tour Oct. 11-13, which includes visits to Shasta Dam, water transport facilities, fish screens, environmental remediation sites and more. At every stop, we will meet with experts who will give you an insider’s perspective on water in California.
