Install, reengineer or conduct preventative maintenance on retaining walls, drainage systems, water storage tanks, stormwater retention basins, culverts, storm systems, porous surfaces, etc. The Utilities Department is working with Pala Casino Spa & Resort, PED, and the Tribal Services and Housing Departments using tribal and partner funds to conduct this strategy on an ongoing basis. Recent accomplishments include working with San Diego County to install several culverts along Pala Temecula Road to avoiding flooding which has closed the road in the past and working with Caltrans to widen the old SR-76 bridge. Additional needs are outlined in Pala’s 2016 Hazard Mitigation Plan.
