The project would divert water from the Sacramento River upstream of the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta through existing canals to a new reservoir 14 miles ...
The body of water was created in 1969 by inundating a 2,200-acre (890 ha) tract as part of the California State Water Project. [3]It serves as the intake point of the California Aqueduct for transport to Southern California, and feeds the Delta–Mendota Canal (a part of the Central Valley Project) to recharge San Joaquin Valley river systems.
The Chatfield Reservoir Reallocation Project, a US$171 million construction project that took place between 2017 and 2020, created an additional 20,600 acre-feet (25,400,000 cubic meters) of water storage in the reservoir, raising its level by about 12 feet (3.7 meters). The project involved moving some of the surrounding park's facilities back ...

With a maximum reservoir depth of 57 ft (17 m), peak inflow to the forebay is 15,600 cu ft (0.44 dam 3) per second, from both the San Luis Dam and the Delta–Mendota Canal. The drainage area of the reservoir downstream of the San Luis Dam is only 18 acres (730 dam 2). The O'Neill Pumping-Generating Plant stores 28 megawatts hours of energy.
Silverwood Lake is located on the East Branch of the California Aqueduct. It is operated by the California Department of Water Resources and provides a major water source for agencies serving nearby San Bernardino Mountain and Mojave Desert areas. Some 2,400 acres (9.7 km 2) of recreation land surround the lake. [3]
