New life for the Carmel River 

Another one bites the dust.

California American Water, with partners NOAA Fisheries and the California State Coastal Conservancy, announced today that the second season of construction for the San Clemente Dam Removal Project will begin this May. The project’s three year construction schedule began last summer and is on-track for completion next year. San Clemente Dam is a 106-foot-high concrete arch dam located 18 miles upstream from the Pacific Ocean on the Carmel River in Monterey County.

It is the largest dam removal project in California history.
