Castaic Lake Water Level Lowers to 34 Percent Total Capacity
As of Monday, Castaic Lake held only 34 percent of its total water capacity, and state officials expect to see that number dwindle even further as the long hot summer continues, according to information from the California Department of Water Resources.
“SCV Water and the rest of California is facing a serious multi-year drought, and there is no end in sight,” said Santa Clarita Valley Water Sustainability Manager Matt Dickens in an April statement. “Our current water-saving efforts are falling short of our conservation goals.”
