''Bishop Creek is also a dated variant of Baxter Creek in Richmond/El Cerrito, California'' Bishop Creek is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed March 17, 2011〕 stream in Inyo County, California. It is the largest tributary of the Owens River. It has five hydroelectric plants owned by Southern California Edison, Bishop Creek #2–6. Bishop Creek #1 is no longer in operation. Parts of the creek run through pipelines, or penstocks, to increase output at the power plants. Bishop Creek has three forks, North, Middle and South. All have their headwaters in the eastern Sierra Nevada, near the border with Fresno County. The forks all flow into lakes while still at high elevations. The North Fork flows into North Lake, the Middle Fork flows into Lake Sabrina and the South Fork flows into South Lake. The North and Middle forks combine and are dammed at Intake II, a small lake. The creek then begins its descent to the valley where it receives the South Fork shortly thereafter. The creek continues roughly east, flowing past the city of Bishop before its confluence with the Owens River. ==See also==
