Located in Mendocino County, north of the town of Potter Valley, California, the reservoir supplies water to users as far south as Marin County. The reservoir is formed by the Cape Horn Dam, also known as Van Arsdale Dam,〔 which impounds the waters of the Eel River. A portion of its water ( per year, on average) is diverted southward through an aqueduct tunnel to a powerhouse in Potter Valley, where it drives a turbine capable of generating up to 9.4 MW of electric power. Diverted water then descends by means of the Powerhouse Canal and the East Branch Russian River to Lake Mendocino, which supplies the Sonoma County Water Agency. The non-diverted flow continues down the Eel to its mouth at the Pacific Ocean near Fortuna. == History == In 1905, the Snow Mountain Water and Power Company started building the Potter Valley Project. Cape Horn Dam was completed in 1907,〔 and the original project became operational in 1908. Pacific Gas and Electric Company took over project in 1930 and has owned the dam ever since. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lake Van Arsdale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
