The Diamond Fork watershed was historically used to transport water from Strawberry Reservoir to agricultural lands in Utah Valley. This transbasin diversion of water resulted in artificially high flows that caused deterioration of natural stream channels. In 2005, the Diamond Fork Pipeline was completed, which removes high flows from the river, allowing stream bank stabilization and improved riparian and fisheries resources. The lower 1.3 miles of the Diamond Fork Creek corridor was acquired as fish and wildlife mitigation, from near the mouth of Diamond Fork Canyon upstream to the Forest Service Boundary. Numerous angler-access parking areas have been constructed along Diamond Fork Road. Restrooms are available at seven sites from Diamond Fork Campground to Sawmill Hollow.
