The South Fork Battle Creek has three major diversions: Coleman, Inskip and the South Diversion Dams. Additional water is captured to feed the South Powerhouse from Soap Creek, upper Ripley Creek and the North Fork Battle Creek through the Cross Country Canal. Water for the Inskip Powerhouse comes from not only from Inskip Diversion but the lower Ripley Creek and Eagle Canyon Canal from the North Fork.
This aerial photograph shows the Coleman Diversion Dam and the Inskip Powerhouse. This dam may be removed to facilitate fish passage and to help augment water supply for winter run and spring chinook restoration efforts. Photo courtesy of Harry Rectenwald, CDFG.
