Sweetwater Authority conducts a second water transfer in two months from Loveland Reservoir.
The rain in December and January is still paying off for 200,000 South Bay residents.
The Sweetwater Authority, which provides water to customers in Western Chula Vista, Bonita, and National City, just opened a massive valve in the Loveland Dam Thursday to send water to the Sweetwater Reservoir for the second time in two months. “We might be able to capture approximately 1.1 billion gallons of water,” explained Erick Del Bosque, Sweetwater Authority’s Director of Engineering and Operations.Get San Diego local news, weather forecasts, sports and lifestyle stories to your inbox.The Loveland Reservoir is only filled with rainwater and water runoff.
After that November transfer and a series of solid rainstorms, Del Bosque said Sweetwater is now at 40% capacity. It will likely be even deeper in a couple weeks after another storm and a second water transfer from Loveland. The valve was opened Thursday. That water is expected to take a few days to reach the Sweetwater Reservoir.
