Next are the 1969 Cow Creek Adjudication Maps in great detail. These are related to the Adjudication Decree of August 1969.  That complete decree is available as document KC0005 here.

These maps are the originals of the central Cow Creek Stream System showing Diversions and Irrigated Lands Revised 1969 to accompany Decree 38577, and are referenced in that volume on page 4.  The maps below are direct scans of the original maps scanned while on loan from the State Water Resources Control Board.


The1x3 foot index page to this set is available here.

The actual maps are available in large size Black and White typically 3x6 feet. Pick the ones you want from the index sheet above. These are physically large becasue they are direct copies of the drawings at the State Water Resources Control Board. They are compressed "tif" graphics typically about 800 KB to 1.5 MB in size at 400 dpi.

Small Colored Drawings

There are two sets here differeing in detail and size of the file.  First is a set of five "JPEG" files that vary between 1 and 2 MB.  These are in reasonable detail but are small enough to examine and e-mail.  Use this index sheet above to pick out the areas of interest.

The second set below covers exactly the same areas, but they are in great detail, and are VERY LARGE, Typically they are about 45 MB each (that is 45 MEGABYTES). Physically they are the same size as those in the books - about 1 by 3 feet. These are suitable for engineering purposes.  Use this index sheet above to pick out the areas of interest. They were scanned at 400 dpi.

When these are examined, it can be seen that there are many errors, ommissions, and over the past 40 years many changes of ownership.  Included here on this site for cross referencing are the June 2007 property maps. from the Shasta County Assessors ofice.
