Event Details

Prado Dam is a flood control and water conservation project constructed and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District. Construction of the original project was completed in April 1941. The project is located at the upper end of the Lower Santa Ana River Canyon, which is a natural constriction controlling 2,255 square miles of the 2,450 square mile Santa Ana River watershed. The dam is located on the Santa Ana River approximately 30.5 miles upstream of the Pacific Ocean. The dam embankment is located in Riverside County, California approximately 2 miles west of the City of Corona.

Construction to improve Prado Dam itself to increase its storage and release capacities is underway. These improvements will enable the dam to take full advantage of the improved channel capacity downstream and will greatly increase the level of flood protection to the communities of Orange County in the Santa Ana River floodplain.
