A look inside 1,750-foot tunnel under construction beneath Anderson Reservoir

Heavy rains that year overwhelmed the Anderson Reservoir, sending water over the dam's spillway into Coyote Creek. In 2020, the federal government ordered the entire reservoir to be drained due to seismic safety concerns.Now, a massive tunnel is under construction beneath the Anderson Reservoir.

The new tunnel, capable of accommodating two lanes of vehicle traffic, will serve two purposes. First, it will enable the complete drainage of Anderson Reservoir, which currently holds about 3 percent of its total capacity, allowing for the removal of the current dam.Then, once the new dam is built, the tunnel will provide far more capacity to quickly remove water from the reservoir.
