San Clemente Dam removal meetings set today at Cachagua General Store

Carmel Valley

Earlier this month, the Monterey County Planning Commission delayed its review of the project until next month to allow Cal Am and other proponents to conduct additional public outreach after Cachagua residents protested a proposed change in the construction traffic route to include Cachagua and Tassajara roads.

The $84 million project includes the removal of the 90-year-old, 106-foot dam and rerouting of the Carmel River to resolve seismic safety concerns and improve steelhead habitat. The old Carmel River Dam will also be removed as part of the project.
