Summary[edit]

Description
English: Hendricks canal near DeSabla, Butte County, California, on June 14, 2020. The canal came under the ownership of PG&E in 1908. It serves the power plant built in DeSabla in 1903. Hendricks canal discharges into the Butte Creek canal about a mile above the DeSabla reservoir. The canal is 103,473 feet long and comprises 93,563 feet of ditch, 7,806 feet of flume, and 2,104 feet of tunnel. The original stretch of the canal, 12.3 miles long, was built about 1871 to a ravine a mile southwest of Stirling City, where it was used for hydraulic mining. When hydraulic mining was stopped, Hendricks canal was abandoned for a few years, but in the summer of 1905 it was cleaned out and extended to its present length. (Lit. Frederick Hall Fowler, Hydroelectric Power Systems of California, Washington 1923, p. 207).
