A Virtual Tour of Sites Reservoir

Take our virtual tour and dive into the location, operations, and benefits of Sites Reservoir, which will provide a more resilient and reliable water supply for California’s communities, farms, and environment. We are working closely with residents, local landowners, local businesses, and public agencies to incorporate their input into the planning and construction of Sites Reservoir and look forward to delivering an innovative water storage solution for all of California.

A Reservoir for California’s People, Farms, and Environment

Sites Reservoir is a generational opportunity to help provide a resilient and reliable water supply for generations to come. For the first time, it introduces the idea of creating and dedicating an asset for flexibly managing water supply for environmental purposes and it’s designed with that in mind amid our changing climate. This would not be possible without collaboration between local, federal, and state partners. Together, we have worked to put forward a Project that is affordable, permittable, and buildable—one that will benefit all of California.
