The All-American Canal is an 82-mile (132 km) long aqueduct, located in southeastern California. It conveys water from the Colorado River into the Imperial Valley and to nine cities. It is the Imperial Valley's only water source, and replaced the Alamo Canal, which was located mostly in Mexico. The Imperial Dam, about 30 miles (48 km) northeast of Yuma, Arizona on the Colorado River, diverts water into the All-American Canal, which runs to just west of Calexico, California before its last branch heads mostly north into the Imperial Valley. Five smaller canals branching off the All-American Canal move water into the Imperial Valley. These canal systems irrigate up to 630,000 acres (250,000 ha) of crop land and have made possible a greatly increased crop yield in this area, originally one of

Er ist die einzige Wasserquelle des Imperial Valley und ersetzte den , der vor allem auf dem Staatsgebiet von Mexiko lag. Am , etwa 48 km nordöstlich von Yuma, wird Wasser des Colorado River in den All-American Canal geleitet. Fünf kleinere Kanäle gehen vom All American Canal ab und verteilen Wasser im Imperial Valley. Dieses Kanalsystem bewässert bis zu 250.000 Hektar landwirtschaftliche Nutzfläche in einem der ursprünglich trockensten Landstriche der Erde. Der All-American Canal ist der größte Bewässerungskanal der Welt und bewältigt eine durchschnittliche Abflussmenge Wasser von 428 m³/s. Das Bauwerk wurde zur Sicherheit (de)
  • L'All-American Canal è un canale artificiale lungo 80 miglia (129 km) che funge da acquedotto. Situato in California sud occidentale il canale attinge l'acqua dal fiume Colorado e la convoglia verso l'Imperial Valley. Il canale che è l'unica fonte d'acqua nell'Imperial valley sostituì l', il cui corso era prevalentemente situato in territorio messicano. L'approvvigionamento idrico dell'Imperial Valley tramite l'All-American Canal avviene con l'ausilio di 6 canali di dimensioni inferiori che forniscono acqua ad una superficie di 250.000 ettari. Il canale è il più grande canale di irrigazione al mondo, con una portata massima di circa 740 metri cubi al secondo. (it)
