 Emily Schwalen of Davis died after being caught in the current while swimming near the Glory Hole and being swept down the pipe after holding on to the rim for about 20 minutes.The Lower Putah Creek Coordinating Committee (LPCCC) worked on a Watershed Management Action Plan which concluded the effects of Monticello Dam on the geomorphology of Putah Creek and other connected hydrology systems.A comparison of the creek before and after the project showed ground water was recharged less, sandbars were deteriorated, and bed level lowering in channel decreased the population dynamics of cottonwood and willow.
