The facility in the mountains east of Fresno is the Eastman Power Plant, a part of the much larger Big Creek Hydroelectric Power Project. This pump-storage facility is very neat, it is located 1,100 feet underground in a artificial cavern blasted out of solid granite. Its run by Southern California Edison so I doubt its construction was tied to the construction of Canyon Diablo.
