Learn about salmon and projects to restore Putah Creek spawning areas. The return of the salmon
since 2012 may be attributed to the combined efforts of the annual removal of the Los Rios check dam flash boards, increased flows from the Putah Diversion Dam, and enhancement of the riparian and spawning areas within Putah Creek. The City of Winters, Solano County Water Agency, Winters Putah Creek Committee, Lower Putah Creek Coordinating Committee, Putah Creek Council, landowners, volunteers and
others are responsible for working to see this incredible return of the
salmon. The Winters Salmon Festival celebrates the return.
