adequate flow for full operation of the 

Project powerhouses. During the 

summer months, the available base flow 

water is augmented by water releases 

from Round Valley and Philbrook 

reservoirs. 

During the fall months, Project 

powerhouses are operated at reduced 

capacities due to low stream flows. 

Water releases from Round Valley 

reservoir flow down the West Branch 

Feather River, and water releases from 

Philbrook reservoir pass down natural 

channels of Philbrook Creek and the 

West Branch Feather River about 8 

miles to Hendricks Head dam. Then 

water is conveyed in the Hendricks 

canal, through Toadtown Powerhouse, 

then into the Toadtown canal. From this 

point, the water is conveyed in the Butte 

Creek canal to DeSabla Forebay then 

discharged into Butte Creek. Water flow 

is then diverted into the Lower 

Centerville canal to the Centerville 

header box, through the Centerville 

Powerhouse, and finally discharged to 

Butte Creek. 

PG&E proposes to continue operating 

the Project with no change to Project 

generation facilities or features other 

than adoption of resource management 

measures and the deletion of five feeder 

diversions.
