The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District is a service agency created and supported by the cities of Fresno, Clovis and the County of Fresno to provide flood control, urban storm drainage and water resources management within District boundaries. We are a special purpose district created by local voters in 1956. The District provides flood control and urban stormwater services within a 399 square-mile watershed located between the Kings and San Joaquin Rivers. The District is responsible for flood control, urban storm drainage, groundwater recharge, recreation/open space and stormwater quality. The service area is home to roughly 650,000 people, and includes both urban and agricultural land uses. The rural flood control system provides capture of flood flows originating in the nearby Sierra Nevada foothills, and consists of a planned system of dams, reservoirs, channels, and streams prevents flood waters from inundating homes, businesses, and farm land. The roughly 136 square-mile Fresno/Clovis metropolitan area is served by an urban drainage system that collects rain that falls on the cities, and consists of approximately 640 miles of pipeline and 154 stormwater retention basins.
