Ditch Policies

The district delivers 1/2 miners inch per irrigated acres. This is equal to 5.625 gallons per minute per irrigated acres. If you irrigate with sprinklers that are calibrated to deliver 5.5 gallons per minute, you should be able to run one sprinkler per irrigated acre.

  • Operation and maintenance roads along the main canal are for district access only. These roads are not  public roads.
  • Lateral maintenance (cleaning of ditches) from the main canal to the point of delivery is the responsibility of the users of the lateral. Water will not be delivered to laterals that have not been properly maintained.
  • Interference with head gates or measuring devices is cause for non-delivery of water.
