Sites Project

Sites Reservoir Authority, located in Maxwell, California, is dedicated to developing a multi-benefit water storage project designed to enhance water supply reliability for communities, farms, and environmental needs in the rapidly changing climate of California. This innovative initiative aims to capture and store stormwater, providing essential water during dry periods while also supporting local ecosystems and agricultural activities.

The reservoir will create an additional 1.5 million acre-feet of off-stream storage, significantly increasing the Sacramento Valley's water capacity and complementing existing major reservoirs. Supported by 30 participating agencies, the project is not only a vital solution for water management but also contributes to job creation and renewable energy goals, ensuring a sustainable water future for the region.
