Nacimiento Dam Spillway Construction Begins

Construction on the Nacimiento Dam Spillway Modification Component of the Salinas Valley Water
Project began on Tuesday, April 1, 2008, and will continue during the non-rainy seasons over the next
two years.
Because of construction activities, there will be periods when traffic on Nacimiento Lake Road will be
affected by construction truck traffic, and there will be variations in the levels of Lake Nacimiento.
However, the construction schedules and the water levels will not have significant effects on traffic
around the reservoir and on recreational activities, particularly on weekends and holidays.
