Drought conditions led the Sonoma County Water Agency to begin the annual process of drawing from the Russian River weeks earlier than normal. A rubber dam was inflated near Forestville on March 21 to create a small pool that the agency draws water from to use in four off-stream infiltration pools for recharging groundwater.
