.... "The Peninsula Watershed – which comprises the
land around the Crystal Springs Reservoir, Pilarcitos Lake and San
Andreas Lake – was closed at noon Thursday and will remain closed
Friday, according to the SFPUC.
The reservoirs help provide drinking water to 2.6
million SFPUC customers in San Francisco, Alameda, Santa Clara and San
Mateo counties and the land around them has popular trails for hiking,
running and biking.
All trails in the area are closed through Friday
and the SFPUC is limiting its own activities in the area as well. In
addition the SFPUC is closely monitoring the 36,000-acre Alameda
Watershed in the East Bay."
