The Crafton Hills Pumping Station in California was built in 1940 as part of the Santa Ana River Project. The facility pumps water from the Santa Ana River to the Crafton Hills Reservoir, which supplies water to the cities of Redlands and Loma Linda. The hydrology of the area is heavily influenced by the Santa Ana River, which is fed by both surface flow and snowpack. The main surface flow provider is the Santa Ana River, while the snowpack from the nearby San Bernardino Mountains also contributes to the hydrology. The area around the pumping station is primarily used for agriculture, with citrus orchards and other crops being common. Additionally, there are recreational opportunities in the nearby Crafton Hills Open Space Preserve, which offers hiking and mountain biking trails.
