This law had limitations: the owners of land bordering water had a right to a reasonable amount of that water, but owners whose land did not border bodies of water had no rights to any of the water. Due to the usage restrictions arising from the riparian rights law, the government directed state engineers to come up with a plan for the entire state that would accomplish a fair distribution of water for irrigation and domestic use.

376:. After a few years, many immigrants moved into agriculture, as it appeared to provide more stability than gold mining. The Central Valley had fertile soils, abundant water, and a flat gentle topography suitable for farming. An increase in demand for food eventually caused a shift from small-scale farming to large-scale intensive farming.

Keswick powerplant. Reclamation placed generator units Two and Three into operation. Early in 1950, the firm placed the fifty-by-fifty-foot spillway gates at Keswick, and the gates started operation on February 20.

By the end of 1941, despite labor issues, the Guy F. Atkinson

In December 1947, lack of funds altered the planned building of the dam; however, the powerhouse structure was completed. By July 1948, Atkinson-Kier had completed the Keswick spillway and repaired eroded portions of the spillway apron. In 1949, Wismer and Becker installed two of the generators at

The area receives average annual precipitation of about 69 inches, with the period of heaviest precipitation occurring from October through March, while June through September sees very low rainfall and reduced inflow of water to the dam's reservoir. In summer, temperatures range from about 85 to

The climate in Shasta County can be characterized as hot and dry in the summer, and cool and wet in winter, with the best climate occurring during the spring and fall seasons, by virtue of average annual rainfall and temperatures.

In summer, there is a significant increase in discharge from the dam due to greater demands for water, especially for agricultural use. High temperatures increase the rate of evaporation, so more water is needed to sustain crops.
