SPAULDING LAKE
Reservoir Levels • Weather • Hydrology
Spaulding Lake, located in California, is a man-made reservoir with a rich history. It was created in the 1960s to provide water for the surrounding areas, including Sacramento, Yuba, and Placer counties. The lake is fed by the Yuba River and a series of canals and ditches. The hydrology of the lake is closely monitored to ensure a sustainable water supply. The lake relies on snowpack from the Sierra Nevada Mountains and surface water flows from the Yuba River for its water supply. The lake is used for agricultural purposes, including irrigation for crops such as rice, and also provides recreational opportunities such as boating and fishing. The lake and its surrounding areas are home to a variety of wildlife, including bald eagles, ospreys, and black bears.
