Summer days scanning and reading

This week I continued to scan items from the San Bernardino
County Flood Control District. Today I learned that the largest flood
to occur in San Bernardino in March of 1938 caused severe damage to the area
and a loss of approximately 113 to 115 individuals. The devastating damage, brought
community members together in an effort to prevent this from happening again, leading to
one of the biggest water projects: The San Bernardino
County Flood Control District. However, unlike other water projects, the
community wanted to make sure that this project
targeted aspects of water conservation and not just flood control to help make
sure that all water regardless of its use was being conserved. The focus of
such a project helped not only target the issue at hand but also contribute to
the future of water preservation. After today I realized I scanned a total of 200
pages from the San Bernardino County Flood Control District Collection. This
number does not include the scans that did not make it. I am glad I was able to
contribute to this project. Until next time!
