I just received this email... The city of San Diego is lowering the water level at San Vicente Reservoir to prepare for San Vicente Dam Raise construction. The reservoir will close once the water level drops below the boat launch ramp. The city has kept the reservoir open as long as possible and has announced it will remain open through Labor Day, September 1, 2008. Both fishing and water contact activities will be allowed that day. The reservoir will close immediately following Labor Day for six to nine years through construction and refill. The reservoir will reopen to recreation sometime between 2014 and 2017, as soon as the new water level reaches the boat launch. The amount of time needed to refill the reservoir will depend on rainfall and water supply and demand. The Water Authority is working with the city of San Diego to reopen the reservoir to recreation as soon as possible.
