Dominguez Channel (Spanish: Canal de Domínguez)[1] is a 15.7-mile-long (25.3 km)[2] river in southern Los Angeles County, California, in the center of the Dominguez Watershed of 133 square miles (340 km2).[3]

The watershed area is 96 percent developed and largely residential. Subsurface storm drain tributaries and open flood control channels flow into the channel.[4] The channel originally was named after a racial slur but was changed to Laguna de Los Dominguez in 1938.[5]
