Shoreline Management

Overview

During the PG&E Spring Gap-Stanislaus Project’s relicensing period, recreation studies identified the need for better management of shoreline activities, particularly in the day use area, and for reducing recreation conflicts between uses such as swimming, fishing and boating. FERC required the PG&E Spring Gap-Stanislaus Project to draft an SMP to assist in managing Pinecrest Lake's shoreline. Public interest in the development of the SMP has been high, and while PG&E is not required by FERC to solicit public comments, PG&E recognizes the importance of the public's interest and is accepting comments on the draft plan.
