The AgencyEstablished in 1959 the Yuba Water Agency is a stand-alone public agency governed by a board of seven elected officials to serve the people of Yuba County. The agency owns and operates the Yuba River Development Project which includes New Bullards Bar Log Cabin and Our House dams. Water released from New Bullards Bar travels to the New Colgate and Narrows I and II powerhouses where it is used to generate renewable carbon-free electricity. Nestled in the beautiful foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains the Yuba River Development Project significantly reduces flood risk and ensures a reliable water supply for the people of Yuba County.
Each year millions of dollars of the revenue earned from sales of hydropower and water are reinvested in the county through projects and grants to provide local resources and support community development and improvement projects. The Agency also makes significant financial investments to improve the natural fisheries of the Yuba River and to educate the public about water and fisheries issues. Just a few examples of contributions made by Yuba Water Agency include the following:
- Funded the local cost-share of improvements to the Feather River Setback Levee leveraging more than $400 million in federal and state investment.
- Partnered with several other agencies and organizations on a major Yuba River ecosystem enhancement project improving 157 acres of seasonal floodplain to increase available salmon habitat and reduce flood risk.
- Committed $10 million in forest restoration efforts leveraging another $78 million in state and federal funds to reduce fire risk for our foothill communities and protect the water supply and quality in the Yuba River watershed.
- Supporting the local cost share of major water and wastewater infrastructure improvements in South Yuba County to enable a regional water system project.
- Partnered with local teachers to create K-12 science curriculum for Yuba County schools that meets state standards all based on the Yuba River watershed.
The Agency is governed by a seven-member board of directors made up of the five Yuba County Board of Supervisors and two members at large. The board meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday morning of every month.
