1954 Map of Waukena
USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Agricultural water management dominates the landscape at the Kings Co Tulare Co line, where the Tulare Lake Basin's intricate hydrology is on full display. The area is defined by a dense network of canals, ditches, and levees designed to control the seasonal flows of Cross Creek and Guernsey Creek. Large industrial-scale features like the Percolation Basin and several expansive Reservoir sites suggest the critical importance of groundwater recharge and surface storage for the surrounding valley farms. The small community of Waukena sits at a junction of road and rail, serving as a focal point for the rural district.
