SCE's KR3 Faiview Diversion Dam, Kern River.

Notes

Southern California Edison (SCE) diverts 600+ cfs from the river at Fairview Dam, not far below the Limestone Run takeout. This reduces the flow and artificially shortens the season on this 16 mile stretch of river. Some of the best runs on the Upper Kern are in this section, including the Fairview Run, the only class III run on the Upper Kern other than the Powerhouse Run.
