South Feather Water and Power Agency operates the South Feather Power Project (SFPP) under annual licenses from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The license describes the responsibilities of the Agency for providing beneficial public uses beyond hydropower generation, such as recreational opportunities.

The SFPP boundary includes all of the recreation facilities directly adjacent to Little Grass Valley and Sly Creek Reservoirs. Both the reservoirs are popular places for skiing, fishing, boating, snowmobiling, and camping. With a variety of campsites (including horse camps and back pack camps), RV parks, and boat launches, the reservoirs are the perfect place to vacation with your family.
