Outline feedback edit
Hi Theresa,
Your outline is a good start, but you will probably need to expand the scope for this project. What about current operations? What's the relationship with New Melones? What's the water used for? What about recreation?
Also please follow the Talk page guidelines and start a new section and sign your post with the four ~
Otherwise go ahead and start doing your research and building your sections.

Background Charles H. Tulloch acquired a small ditch and water rights in central California in the 1880’s. The ditch that was originally made by miners for placer gravel. Furthermore, local farmers saw it as a great resource and an opportunity to irrigate their crops. The local farmers widened the ditch, thus irrigating 6,000 acres in Oakdale and South San Joaquin 1. The Oakdale Irrigation District (OID) and the South San Joaquin Irrigation District (SSJID) paid $650,000 to co-own water rights from Tulloch’s expanded ditch on the Stanislaus River in July of 1910.
The two districts received the first license from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to begin the Tulloch Project. It was effective January 1, 1955 through December 31, 2004 2. Two years later, the districts received another license on February 28, 2006 that would be effective for forty years and end on January 1, 2046.
The Tulloch Project The Tulloch Project consists of the intentions of supplying water and energy to the nearby residents.
Tri-Dam Project The Donnells, Beardsley and Tulloch projects are located in Tuolumne County on the Middle Fork of the Stanislaus River. OID and SSJID co-developed the “Upper Works” where Donnells and Beardsley are and the “Lower Works” where Tulloch is.
