County
Recreation
Increases
Spring is a good time to visit
Scotts Flat Reservoir--one of the
county's newest recreational facilities,
The dam was increased in height
some 35 feet as part of the Nevada
Irrigation District's $59 million
Yuba-Bear River hydro-electric
project. This segment of the work
was the first of the project units
to be completed.
Scotts Flat is one of four district reservoirs slated for recreational developmentunder a more
then $4 million Davis-Grunsky
Act grant from tfe state.
Although no recreational development has started on the lake
because the district's recreational
grant has not yet received final
approval from the state, long
range plans call for a three stage
development to include 80 picnic
units, 146 camp units, an overlook with parking for 49 cars, four
boat ramps with parking for 100
cars and trailers andtwo swimming beaches each one over one
and one hald acres in sizewith
parking for 60 cars. Over a mile
of access road is planned to serve
these areas.
The estimated cost for the entire recreation project is
$688,000.
Because of its proximity to
Nevada City, the lake has also
always been popular with local
fisherman, With its increase in
the surface area caused by the
raising of the height of the dam,
the lake will be able to accomidate even more recreationists.
Plans call for elimination of the
rough fish now inhabiting the
lake andthe restocking of the
reservoir with trout.
The views above show the downstream face of the enlarged dam
anda view of how the bigger lake
will look for future fisherman.
The lake is a short drive south
east of Nevada City and is well
worth a spring afternoon ride to
see.
‘the Golden Rain tree was one
of the earliest planted tees in
China, three thousand years ago,
being especially planted on the
tombs of scholars.
