A key facility at Southern California’s largest reservoir, Diamond Valley Lake, was dedicated today in honor of a man who was instrumental in getting the reservoir built – former Metropolitan General Counsel N. Gregory Taylor. Current and former water leaders from across Southern California gathered to recognize Taylor’s legacy during a ceremony to name the Inlet/Outlet Tower, which controls the flow of water into and out of the reservoir, in his honor. Taylor, who passed away in 2023, used his visionary leadership and guidance to secure the necessary approvals for the reservoir’s construction, ensuring Southern California has reliable water supplies through drought, emergencies and other challenges.
