Description
Abstract: Prineville Reservoir is a Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) on-stream multi-purpose reservoir on the Crooked River in Crook County, approximately 17 miles south of Prineville. The project was authorized by Congress in 1956 with functions including irrigation, flood control and industrial water. Recreation and downstream fish and wildlife benefits were not included as project functions. Water impounding began December 12, 1960 and the reservoir became functional during the winter of 1960-61. No upstream fish passage was provided. Various agencies are involved in the reservoir operation. Ochoco Irrigation District, under BOR guidelines, operates the water control structure, thus controlling reservoir pool level as well as stream flow below the reservoir. Prineville Reservoir State Park is managed and maintained by State Parks. Crook County maintains two boat ramps on the reservoir. The Department of Fish and Wildlife manages the fish resources of the reservoir and has entered into an agreement with BOR and Crook County to manage an 18 square mile area adjacent to the upper one-third of the reservoir for waterfowl, big game and other wildlife. Prineville Reservoir is heavily used by recreationists. The 1983 BOR Recreation and Wildlife Summary indicated that the reservoir was used by 285,031 anglers, hunters, boaters, swimmers and campers. In October 1986, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission accepted the Department's recommendation to manage Prineville Reservoir for hatchery trout and wild bass and brown bullheads.
