Englebright Lake is an 815 acre reservoir on the Yuba River, impounded by Englebright Dam, in the Sierra Nevada, Northern California, United States.[1] The reservoir stores 45,000 acre feet of water with nearly 24 miles of shoreline.[1]
It is located in Yuba County and Nevada County. The boat launch and marina, named Skippers Cove, are located in Smartsville. It is located in between Grass Valley and Marysville.[1] The reservoir, as well as the dam, were named for former U.S. Representative Harry L. Englebright, who represented the district in which Englebright is located.
The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has developed a safe eating advisory[2] for the Englebright Lake based on levels of mercury found in fish caught here.[3]
