Why is the City of Santa Ana’s Public Works department allowing our city to flood when it rains?

Posted on by Posted in Public Safety, public works, Santa Ana, Water, Weather 7 Comments

Santa Ana is expecting 2 inches of rain on Sunday which will mean the streets will once again BE FLOODED!!!

It amazes me that vehicles have to drive through multiple inches water on MAJOR ARTERIAL streets in our city, and the city doesn’t seem to do anything about it. Where is the Police Dept telling drivers to avoid flooded streets?

Here are some examples people shared on Facebook of the flooded streets from last Friday: Continue reading→

Orange County’s ground water basin is finally getting refilled

City of Santa Ana

Community Alert: OCWD WORKS Collaborating with Army Corps of Engineers Refilling the OC Ground Water Basin

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. (January 10, 2017) –– Since July 2016, the start of the Orange County Water District’s (OCWD; the District) “water year,” north and central Orange County has received a total of 7.85 inches of rain. Storm events from December 15 through the January 6 weekend alone brought in 5.72 inches. Rather than big flashes of heavy rain, slow and steady rainstorms, spaced out by one to two weeks are optimal, since this allows temporary capture of stormwater behind Prado Dam in Riverside County and subsequent release of the captured stormwater to flow down the Santa Ana River and be diverted into groundwater recharge basins in Orange County, owned and managed by OCWD.
