Chester Flood Control Ditch

Norm Williams, Special to LassenNews.com

Lassen County photographer Norm Williams submitted this photo of the Chester Flood Control Ditch.

“This is the Chester Flood Control Ditch this evening,” he wrote. “Before this ditch was built, all of this water would have run right through downtown Chester.  Many bad floods were the result. This ditch has been a life saver for the community.”
