Capay Diversion Dam - The Capay Diversion Dam is located approximately two miles above the town of Capay on Cache Creek. This dam was built by the Yolo Water & Power Company and it serves as the headworks for the canal system. Here, the water released from Clear Lake and Indian Valley Reservoir is diverted into the West Adams and the Winters canals, which then feed the entire canal system. The Capay Dam underwent a major renovation in 1994 which included the installation of one of the longest inflatable dams in the world. The inflatable dam improves safety and the District's ability to deliver water.
