The Sukut firm is a Southern California company that is rebuilding the Isabella Lake dam project in Kern County.
It is so large that all nine of the agency’s other reservoirs could fit inside it, according to Valley Water.
“Rebuilding Anderson Dam is our top priority,” Valley Water Board Chair Tony Estremera said in a statement.
Together, these projects will allow Valley Water to reduce impacts and safely keep Anderson Reservoir empty while the new dam is under construction.
Since February 2024, Valley Water has paused hiring for 45 positions, saving about $1 million each month.
