The young women and men of the Corps work hard protecting and restoring California’s environment and responding to disasters, becoming stronger workers, citizens and individuals through their service.
Members of the CCC from every location throughout the state are trained and ready for whatever winter brings.
Crews have sharpened their floodfighting skills, including proper sandbagging techniques, the construction of various sandbag structures, and the placement of protective plastic along levees to prevent erosion through wash-wash action.
The CCC has been called out on nearly every major flood or storm since the Corps was established in 1976. Since that time, corpsmembers have filled more than 3.5 million sandbags.
