LAKE ELSINORE MANAGEMENT PROJECT 1993 Update Historlcflooding and drying of the lake is part of its normal life cycle. With the Lake Management Project, its surface level will be stabilized at 1,240 feet above sea leveL The Lake Elsinore Management Project is a phased construction program designed to allow the lake water level to be managed and to provide lake improvements. The project includes constructing an earthen levee, building an operations island and causeway for well operations, drilling new wells, providing controlled overflow points, and creating new wetlands habitat areas. PROJECT BENEFITS INCLUDE: . Reducing evaporation loss . Reducing flood damage . Improving water quality . Increasing lake visitors . Providing irrigation water . Improving recreation opportunities . Enhancing fish and wildlife habitats 1920 1930 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 Grap'h shows historic lake levellluctuations vs. a stabilized level with Lake Management. LEMA Member Agencies . City of lake Elsinore Reaevelopment Agency · California Department of Porks and Recreation · Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District . Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority · City of lake Elsinore · County of Riverside FACTS ABOUT THE LAKE . It takes 14,500 acre-feet of water annually to replace water lost to evaporation. Evaporation loss averages 9,000 gallons each minute of the year. An acre-foot is approximately 326,000 gallons, enough water to meet the needs of two average families for a year. . A dried up lake could cost the local economy an estimated $20 million annually in lost business and revenues. . During times when the lake has been full, visitors have numbered as high as 770,000 per year. . The floods of the early '80s cost the local economy an estimated $30-$50 million in damages, lost business, and revenues. . During the 1980 flood, the lake surface level reached elevation 1,265.7' above sea level. If the Lake Management Project and ouiiet channel had existed then, the lake would have risen no higher than elevation 1=~ NO. 2- L- THE PROBLEM. . . Throughout its history, · . the lake at Lake Elsinore has been subject to flood- ingor drought, depending on rainfall amounts. The lake loses an average of 14,500 acre- feet a year to evaporation, dropping the surface level more than 4.5 feet a year. In the last 70 years, average annual inflow to the lake has exceeded 14,500 acre-feet only 13 times. When the lake is low, fish have died and recreational use has stopped. The lake last went dry in the 1960s. It last flooded in 1980 and again in 1983, causing millions of dollars ind~f1l~es. The lak~was expected to dry up in the summer of 1991, but .the "March Miracle" rains resulted in almost 18,000 acre-feet of water flowing into Lake Elsi- nore, raising the surface level 6.2f~ . The Lake.E1sinore M~ent ProjectwiIl eliminate the "feast or famine" cydewhkhhas plagued the lake from it"$ earliest days. Restructuring the bound- aries of the lake. to prevent flooding and minimizeev:apora- tion, while also providittg wUdlifeand plantlife habitats, is an excellent example of tnankind working with nature for the benefit of both. .A stabilized lake, avallable for recreational purpos- es year-round, will be ~ a majorass.et to the .. .IJ".......I~....I_.. .. immediate and ... ... . surrounding communities alike. LAKE MANAGEMENT PROJECT 1 . CONNECTION CHANNEL A wedge-like graded incline that diverts San Jacinto river flows into the Lake Type Inlet by force of gravity. 2. LAKE TYPE INLET Built as an extension of the lake, con- stmcting the Lake Type Inlet provided material to build the meandering levee. 3. PUMPING STATION A pumping station will be installed .. ..... behind the levee where the San . ",~.'-'>~~~."" Jacinto River previously discharged " into the lake. The pumping station will circulate water between the lake and the wetlands areas. In future, the pumps can be upsized to facilitate drainage of the back basin as a consequence of flood storage. 4. FORTY-EIGHT INCH CONDUIT A 48" diameter conduit through the levee will circulate water between the lake and the wetlands and allow fish to migrate back and forth. To keep the lake from flooding the wetlands, a sluice gate (floodgate) will close whenever the lake surface rises above elevation 1,243' approximately. 5. FLOOD PLAIN This 2,800+ acre area will provide flood storage when major storm flows cannot be absorbed by the lake and the outflow channel. Any section below approximate- Iyelevation 1,263.3' will be part of the flood plain. 6. LINEAR RIPARIAN HABITAT A one-mile linear riparian (riverlike) habi- tat will be created by planting native trees, shmbs and grasses along a portion of the former bed of the San Jacinto River, from the lake type inlet to the wetlands habitat. A distribution pipeline from the two new wetlands wells will feed water into the lin- ear habitat through six 4" outlets. ...: o Q) '0 'f?? Q) > a: 8. WETLANDS HABITAT A manmade 356-acre wetlands area is being constmcted to provide habitat for birds, small mammals, reptiles and.amphit ians. The wetlands are surrounded by an earthen berm built to elevation 1,248'. The water surface elevation within the wetland will be maintained between 1,240' and 1,243'. Island I will remain in a natural state, while Islands II and III will be plant- ed with native trees, shmbs and grasses. 9. FISH HABITAT A protected, 50-acre fish breeding habi- tat will be established in the cove between the south end of the operation island and the levee. 7. WETLANDS WELLS Two wells will be drilled north of the wetlands to provide a continuous supply of water for the riparian and wetlands habitats. less evaporation, water quality is also improved. II. OPERATIONS ISLAND a WELLS The operations island supports three water wells which were submerged in the 1980 flood. A portion of the island md causeway was constructed at 1,265' to protect the wells and pro- vide access for maintenance. When restored, the wells will be capable of producing approximately 10,320 acre- Feet per year. Groundwater to stabilize :he lake will be supplemented with recycled water imported from Eastern \1unicipal Water District that meets fide 22 water quality standards and is Ipproved for body contact by State lnd Local Departments of Health. 12. OLIVE ST., BEECHER ST. a CEREAL ST. WELLS rhree additional project wells at Olive 7 WETLANDS .... WELLS ~.. Grand Ave. St., Beecher St. and Cereal St. were previously constructed to provide sup- plemental water for municipal and industrial use and lake stabilization. 13. WATER RECREATION AREA The managed lake surface will be stabi- lized at the 1,240' level. Maximum water depths will vary between 18 and 33 feet, subject to natural seasonal inflows. Boating, fishing, and swimming oppor- tunities will be improved and available virtually year-round. 14. OVERFLOW WEIR After the Outflow Channel is complet- ed, a 1,600' long overflow weir (low dam) will be constructed along the north end of the levee, where the San Jacinto River feeds into the lake. Built to elevation 1,262', the weir will allow excess flood waters that cannot be absorbed by the lake and the outflow 5 FLOOD PLAIN .p; en c: o ~ o o .. 8WETLANDS . HABITAT ~ ~.q~ S channel to flow into the flood plain for storage. When the lake level drops, water stored behind the levee can then be pumped back into the lake. 15. OUTFLOW CHANNEL Although not officially part of the Lake Elsinore Management Project, the Out- flow Channel is an integral part of the managed lake system. Its $15 million cost will be financed by a combination of sources, including U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Small Flood Control Pro- ject Authority funds and local sources. The channel will be lowered and widened, and a sill will be constructed at elevation 1,255' at the confluence of Wasson Canyon and Temescal Wash. A number of bridges over the channel will be rebuilt to accommodate the changes. When the rising lake exceeds 1,255', overflow water will flow from the lake into Temescal Wash, eventual- ly reacl1ing the Santa Ana River. ~~rrsaNO. . .

As a sink of the San Jacinto River, Lake Elsinore naturally undergoes periods of flooding and drying, depending on runoff from the watershed. In an attempt to regulate this variation, the Lake Elsinore Management Project provides for construction of a main levee, a lake inlet system, outlet channel modifications, a levee drainage and irrigation pumping station, an irrigation supply system, fish and wildlife enhancements, recreationfacilities, and rehabilitation of the state DPR wells. . Historical flooding and drying The lake has been completely dry in 1850, 1880, 1954-57,and 1959-63.VVhen flooded, the lake has spilled at least five times between 1860 and 1916, and again in 1980-81. The lake spills into Temescal VVash, a tributary ofthe Santa Ana River. . Evaporation Outflow from Lake Elsinore is almost exclusively by evaporation. Each year, Lake. Elsinore loses an average of 14,500 acre feet-about 9,000 gallons each minute of the year. In late December 1992 the lake level was 1229.7 feet. The lake has been declining since the early '80s floods. . Replenishment costs If imported water were available to offset evaporation losses, at $336 per acre foot, the total would exceed $4.8 million per year. Limited availability and rising costs make imported water prohibitively expensive. . EVMWD wells In contrast to a 1981 study of groundwater production by the Department of VV ater Resources, pumping records maintained by EVMVVD evidence more rapid groundwater depletion than projected in the report. Current well production is approximately 9,300 gallons per minute, about equal to the evaporative makeup requirement for the lake. Using less expensive groundwater for lake supplementation would mean greater reliance on imported water for domestic purposes, at higher cost to customers. A 1989 VV ater Study by Black & Veatch examines three sources of supplemental Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District water for Lake Elsinore. Since then, some district wells are either no longer in production or have shown significantly declining production levels. . Groundwater A combination of supplemental water from EVMVVD's project wells and rehabilitation of three DPR wells is insufficient to meet all lake requirements. Adding new wells could accelerate the depletion of the aquifer at existing well sites. . Reclaimed water Facilities for the removal of nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrates will be required to meet water quality standards for the lake. EVMVVD effluent discharges are insufficient to meet lake requirements. Reclaimed water from EMWD will be available in winter months after 1995. . Imported water Supplies from MWD facilities such as Lake Skinner, the Auld Valley Pipeline, or the VV oodcrest Line would require additional costs for conveyance capacity, raising the cost per acre foot. In drought periods, domestic priorities preclude availability for lake supplementation. . Short term supply options Any plan fot short term supplementation of Lake Elsinore must confront several issues such as water quality, supply alternatives, and cost. Non-potable groundwater may be used to supplement the lake, but strict water quality standards could limit supplies. . Long term supply reliability Reclaimed water from Eastern Municipal VV ater District will meet the needs of the Lake Elsinore Management Project. The project will maintain the lake surface between 1240' minimum up to the 1249' range. A contract between EVMWD and Eastern provides up to 35,000 acre feet of reclaimed water for storage in Lake Elsinore during winter months. Importing reclaimed water into the lake will improve water quality as flushing and dilution effects reduce total dissolved solids (TDS) levels. EMVVD's effluent pipeline for delivering reclaimed water to Lake Elsinore will be constructed by 1994. 1/11/9301 M ~.~ rfQ1 NO. PAC! 1 2-2- 0$ II " Your finished bags will look like this: .

Severe storms over the weekend caused the lake level to rise nearly eight feet since December 1. "Because of multiple storm related hazards, we need the public to stay off the lake and avoid water contact until further notice," said Pat Kilroy, Director of Lake and Aquatic Resources. Hazards caused by runoff. from the San Jacinto River Watershed include floating debris, missing or dislodged buoys, submerged obstacles, an uneven lake bottom, strong undertows or current at the lake inlet and flows into the lake from storm channels. Bacterial contamination from natural sources and sewage spills is also a concern. According to Kilroy, "Wind and sunlight are nature's way of reducing the threat of bacterial contamination over time." Until tests confirm a return to normal bacteria levels, people should avoid contact with water in the lake for the next several days. "Erosion along the San Jacinto River banks and inlet channel may also be hazardous to spectators who try to get too close if the river bank suddenly gives away," said Kilroy. 730 2)outh d1ai12 2)hEd, .1!akE ELiil207.E, Ccft92530 ClELEphoI2E: (909) 674-3724 9-MO~.9.) 674-2392 www.[akE-ELiil207.E.07.;} ~ ITa1J Z 2- NO. PftCl/y OF /1 City of Lake Elsinore Lake Closure January 11, 2005 Page 2 of2 In a related safety move, the City will close the boat launch and has fenced the shoreline at the Lake Elsinore Recreation Area and Campground. This is necessary because the launch is now unusable due to the high lake level. The campground facility will remain open to campers and day use visitors and for fishing. This latest series of weekend storms caused the lake to rise dramatically to over 1243' above sea level by Monday morning-up nearly eight feet since December 1,2004. With the lake now above 1,240' sea level, the optimum lake level for lake management, Seaport Boat Launch will reopen this spring. The City's newest launch facility had to be closed in 2001 once the lake level dipped below 1,238'. At the current lake level, Seaport Boat Launch will be open to the public for at least one, possibly two full seasons. Lake Elsinore is a natural basin at the terminus of the 750 square mile San Jacinto River Watershed, which drains urban runoff from San Jacinto, Hemet, Moreno Valley, Perris, Canyon Lake and Lake Elsinore. ###### , ~ I1Bt NO. 2...

Severe storms prompted the closure as heavy storm runoff doubled the volume of water in the lake, raising the lake level by ten feet and pouring in tons of floating debris, displacing buoys, and sending bacteria levels above body contact limits for several days. The City is reopening the lake because..ofimproved water quality and stable conditions on the lake. According to Lake and Aquatic Resources Director Pat Kilroy, "As a result of recent water quality testing, bacteria levels are within the nom1al range for body contact." Lake water quality is being monitored by Elsinore Valley MWD and the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health. The City has been actively working to improve safety on the lake during the closure. "City crews have been busy removing floating debris, marking known hazards, repositioning buoys and monitoring changing conditions on the lake," said Kilroy. 730 dOlLth c:JI/lai/2 dhE.d, ..J.:akE.

For example, floating debris is a potential danger to boats traveling at high speed. With a higher lake level, it's important for boaters to stay clear of hazard area buoys and to use caution at open speeds. Submerged obstacles are another potential hazard, city officials warn. The City has written a caution flyer for distribution to boaters who use area launch facilities. The notice warns of submerged obstacles such as fences and land forms such as the peninsula off of the Lake Elsinore Campground and Recreation Area, and other submerged land forms along some private marinas and the levee. Because of the higher lake level, the boat launch at the Lake Elsinore Recreation and Campground has been closed and fenced off to public access as a safety precaution, though the campground remains open. "Changing lake conditions can result in potential risk, so it's important for lake users and visitors to obey posted safety warnings on shore and in the lake," said Kilroy. The rain season isn't over for another four months, and new storms could cause the lake level to rise even higher than the present level of 1,245.82 feet above sea level. Since the beginning ofthe rain season in October 2004, the lake level has risen over twelve feet. According to Kilroy, "The City of Lake Elsinore wants all lake users to have a safe time on the lake and to come back and visit often." Lake Elsinore is a natural basin at the terminus of the 750 square mile San Jacinto River Watershed, which drains urban runoff from San Jacinto, Hemet, Moreno Valley, Perris, Canyon Lake and Lake Elsinore. ###### ~~ngMO....

It is the second closure of the season due to severe storm weather and resulting hazardous conditions. "Our chief concerns are floating debris and changing conditions along the shoreline as the lake rapidly rises," said Pat Kilroy, Director of Lake and Aquatic Resources. Potential hazards caused by runoff from the San Jacinto River Watershed include floating debris, missing or dislodged buoys, submerged obstacles, an uneven lake bottom, and strong currents in the inlet channel and around storm channels that empty into the lake. The lake has risen about five feet as a result of weekend storms and excess runoff from the San Jacinto River. Today's lake elevation is 1252.36 feet above sea level, over eighteen feet higher from the start of the wet season last October. The normal rain season is from October to April. Season to date rainfall is already double the norm of eleven inches. 130 ~outh c!li(ain ~t7.ed, ..take Eliino7-e, cd! 92530 !Jetephone: (909) 674-3124 ~:kw.9) 674-2392 www.lake-eliino7-e.07-5 ~~ IT'f;M f~. 2- 2- PAGE /f_ Of /1 City of Lake Elsinore Lake Closure February 23,2005 Page 2 of2 With more rain on the way, the next benchmark for the lake to reach is elevation 1255 feet, the elevation at which the lake begins to drain from the outflow channel into the Temescal Wash. In January the lake was closed due to unhealthful bacterial levels as a result of storm inflows and sewage spills. According to Kilroy, "Excessive storm runoff typically causes bacteria levels to rise, until natural sunlight and wave action can clear things up."
