The NODOS Investigation is evaluating potential offstream surface water storage projects in the upper Sacramento River Basin that could increase surface water storage capacity in the Sacramento River Basin as one of several actions to improve water supply reliability, renewable power integration, Delta water quality, and critical fish populations within the Bay-Delta watersheds.

The NODOS Investigation is one of five surface water storage studies recommended in the CALFED PEIS/EIR Record of Decision.
