1970 Map of Palermo

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Feather River corridor and its industrial legacy dominate this 1970 snapshot of Butte County. Extensive Dredge Tailings line the riverbanks and hillsides, physical evidence of the gold dredging operations that reshaped the terrain. This landscape is a hybrid of industrial scars and residential growth, where settlements like Palermo and South Oroville sit alongside infrastructure like the Palermo Substation and Sewage Disposal facilities.
