City of San Diego Releases 600 Million Gallons of Water From Lake Hodges

Record rainstorms across the county have forced the City of San Diego to release hundreds of millions of gallons of water from Lake Hodges dam in recent weeks.  The city of San Diego is under a state order to keep the water level low in the lake — at about 30 percent of capacity — due to safety concerns over Lake Hodges dam.  It’s more than 100 years old.
