Surface flows in Kelly Creek may be picked up through a short
section of pipeline known as the Kelly Creek Extension. Construction
of approximately 1,114 feet of 12-inch pipeline in the vicinity of
Oak Creek is scheduled to take place in the summer of 1975, and will
enable the City of Delta to pick up additional supplies for the first
time directly from Oak Creek. Water released from the Porter
Reservoirs, Morris Reservoir No.2, the Dugger Reservoir, and
overflow from the Pitcairn Reservoir may be picked up by the Oak
Creek diversion facilities or collected by the Hoosier and Delta
County Ditch. This ditch runs parallel to the Dirty George Creek
Aqueduct and the water released from these reservoirs at the
headwaters of Oak Creek can be conveyed to the White Stabilization
Reservoir and eventually picked up by the pipeline. In addition, the
intake on Oak Creek is now a legal alternate point of diversion for
decrees in the Oak Creek No. 2 Ditch, the Teachout Ditch, and the
Oak Valley Ditch.

From the junction of the Doughspoon and Dirty George Creek
Aqueduct, a 10-inch pipeline extends southeasterly approximately
1/2 mile where it increases to a 12-inch pipeline for the rest of the
distance to the Delta Control Reservoir. The length of this main
trunk line of the collection system is approximately six miles.
