KRCD and Kings River Water Association recently ha KRCD and Kings River Water Association recently had the privilege of joining Congressman @repvincefong and Colonel McTighe from @usacesacramento and their staffs at Pine Flat Dam to discuss a proposed feasibility study on raising the spillway at Pine Flat Dam by 12 feet. Raising Pine Flat Dam represents a rare and valuable opportunity to build on an existing critical federal asset to provide significant new surface water storage and flood control capabilities. Key benefits of raising Pine Flat Dam: ✔️ Enhances flood protection for downstream communities ✔️ Improves drought resilience for agriculture, municipal water supplies, and groundwater recharge ✔️ Increases KRCD's hydropower generation capability
