OverviewExcerpt from Earthquake Damage to Hydraulic Structures in California When completed in 1990, the State Water Project will represent an investment of some $2. 5 billion in reservoirs, dams, powerplants, aqueducts, and pumping plants. But California is earthquake-prone country and today no one would think of building a project of this size without including earthquake-resistant features in the design. The Department of Water Resources, which is building and will operate the State Water Project, bases its earthquake-resistant designs on techniques developed from known effects of earthquakes on man-made structures and specialized design procedures to calculate the earthquake induced stresses in hydraulic structures.
