About this map

The Sacramento River carves a sharp, serpentine path through the heart of the American Basin, defining the agricultural and industrial character of this region during the post-war era. The landscape is heavily engineered for water management, featuring a dense network of levees and drainage channels including the El Centro Drainage Canal and the North Drainage Canal. Significant infrastructure like the Prichard Lake Pumping Plant and Elkhorn Pumping Plant demonstrates the ongoing effort to control the basin's hydrology for farming and flood protection.
