Here's a table of California Aqueduct facilities that I made. What do you guys think? I hope that it makes sense. When an aqueduct or conduit splits off, I indented it and then indented the facilities that make it up. Aqueducts or conduits that split off again are indented again. -- Kjkolb 22:44, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Can we add anything relating to the history and the building/creation of the California Aqueduct? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.179.8.41 (talk) 17:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Subcategories

I'm not sure why, but somebody put this in a category "Canals in Arizona". The California Aqueduct is entirely within the State of California. I suspect somebody mistook the California Aqueduct for the Colorado River Aqueduct that is used to bring Colorado River water to the Metropolitan Water District of Souther California.
