The detailed canal account says the Main Canal serves 3,830 acres and the South Canal 1,520 acres; it also says the lateral system serves 2,450 acres and the remaining 2,900 acres are served by canal turnouts. The detailed service figures total 5,350 acres, not 5,763; the source does not explain the difference. Reported engineering details include a 101-foot-high, 6,450-foot-long Norton Dam; spillway capacity of 94,600 cubic feet per second; outlet capacity of 330 cubic feet per second; and a reservoir capacity of 134,738 acre-feet, allocated among dead storage (2,718), inactive capacity (2,566), irrigation and municipal supply (30,651), and flood control (98,803). The diversion dam is described as an approximately 150-foot-long, 19-foot-high concrete weir with earth dikes. The Main Canal is 20 miles long with 100-cubic-feet-per-second capacity; the South Canal is 8.3 miles long with 36-cubic-feet-per-second capacity. The source also reports 17 laterals totaling 14.3 miles and 6.4 miles of collector drains. Construction milestones reported for these facilities: Norton Dam and Reservoir began in December 1961 and were completed in December 1964; Almena Diversion Dam began in August 1965 and was completed in February 1967; canals, laterals, and drains began in October 1965 and were completed in May 1967.
