Removing Matilija Dam:
Final Design:
Feasibility Study: Early Progress: Background Information: About the Matilija Coalition: |
The sediment management plan for the removal of Matilija Dam includes using a slurry pipeline to transport approximately 2 Million Cubic Yards of fine silt and clay to locations downstream of the Robles water diversion facility. The figure
below shows a conceptual alignment for the slurry line. This was also conceived as a potential recreational trail to follow the
alignment of the slurry pipeline after the fine sediments from Matilija
reservoir have been removed and deposited downstream.
