The Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District is a local service agency created by voters in 1956 and supported by the cities of Fresno and Clovis and the county. It operates within a 399-square-mile watershed located between the Kings and San Joaquin Rivers, delivering flood control, urban storm drainage, groundwater recharge, and water resources management. The district serves the Fresno metropolitan area and surrounding agricultural lands, addressing the needs of roughly 900,000 residents. The urban drainage system for the Fresno/Clovis area comprises about 775 miles of pipeline and 157 stormwater basins, supporting protection of homes, businesses, and farmland from flood events. The service area includes both urban and agricultural land uses and relies on a rural flood control network that captures flows from the Sierra Nevada foothills through a planned network of dams, reservoirs, channels, and streams. In 2023, FMFCD pursued partnerships with neighboring districts to coordinate basin work and interties, reflecting ongoing regional collaboration.
