WARMWATER PROGRAM During this biennium, the program of making avail- able to the public existing water impoundments that were either closed to fishing or inadequately devel- oped for public use was intensified. This has included such projects as the San Diego City Water Supply Reservoirs—Pardee in Amador and Calaveras Counties, Santa Margarita in San Luis Obispo County, Isabella in Kern County, Woodward in Stan- islaus County and Avocado Lake in Fresno Count}'. In addition, new waters have been or are being created for the express purpose of providing warm- water fishing and recreation. Madera Lake, the largest project of this type, was under construction during the biennium. It consists of a 400 surface acre warm- water fishing lake on 1,200 acres and will be com- pleted in 1959. This state-owned facility will be oper- ated and maintained by Madera County. During the biennium, the board allocated $1,035,000 for capital outlay under this program.
