Oroville Dam Hillsides Will Turn Green Due to Hydroseeding

Oroville Dam hillsides will turn green due to hydroseeding

Oroville Dam’s main and emergency spillways were damaged in 2017, prompting the evacuation of more than 180,000 people living downstream along the Feather River and the relocation of a fish hatchery.
