Debris Potential Areas

Abstract: Los Angeles Basin, Santa Clara River Basin, and Antelope Valley are divided into zones that yield similar volumes of sediment under similar conditions. These are called Debris Potential Area (DPA) zones. Sediment production from a watershed is a rate at which sediment passes a particular point, usually expressed as cubic yards per square [...]

Seawater Barriers

Abstract: The Los Angeles County Department of Public Works operates and maintains three seawater barriers along Los Angeles County’s coastline. Often unnoticed because of their underground nature, these facilities serve as Los Angeles basin’s fresh water sentinels. They protect a significant portion of the area’s drinking water supply from ocean water, which constantly attempts [...]

Ground Water Basins

Abstract: This represents the groundwater basins and sub-basins as defined by the California Department of Water Resources. Groundwater basins are designated on the basis of geological and hydrological conditions, these usually being the occurrence of alluvial or unconsolidated deposits. When practical, large basins are also subdivided by political boundaries, as in the Central Valley. [...]
