Lake Pillsbury, part of the Potter Valley Project, isn’t just a water reservoir. It’s a regional asset that keeps the water flowing in the Eel and Russian Rivers. It’s our fire protection - a lifeline for Lake Pillsbury communities and the surrounding area. It supplies year round water to families and farms in Lake, Mendocino, Sonoma and North Marin Counties, many of whom depend upon this water for their livelihoods.

Nestled in the pines of the Mendocino National Forest in Lake County, CA, the area provides rich habitat for wildlife and extensive recreational opportunities.

PG&E’s proposal to remove Scott Dam and eliminate Lake Pillsbury will put all of this in jeopardy.
