About the napa river
The Napa River is a 55-mile-long river in northern California that flows through the Napa Valley. It has a long history of flooding, and has been managed through various flood control projects. There are several reservoirs and dams along the river, including the Lake Berryessa Dam and the Monticello Dam, which form Lake Berryessa and Lake Hennessey, respectively. These reservoirs provide water for agricultural uses in the valley. The river is also a popular recreational destination for activities such as fishing, kayaking, and hiking. The river's hydrology has been impacted by human activity, including land use changes and water diversions. Restoration efforts are underway to improve the health of the river and its ecosystem.
