Water Operations Update
With the 2022-2023 Water Year coming to a close at the end of September, the Consolidated Irrigation District (District) is preparing to wind down the delivery season. The exceptional rain and snow events earlier this year resulted in one of the largest and wettest snowpacks in the recorded history of the Kings River. Flood releases from Pine Flat Reservoir that ran from February 23rd to July 24th provided terrific groundwater recharge opportunities across the District. To date, the District has recharged over 300,000 acre-feet of surface water.
Currently, the District has about 70,000 acre-feet of surface water in storage at Pine Flat Reservoir. Approximately 20,000 acre-feet of water will be reserved to meet the District’s obligations under the Kings River Fishery Management Program during the upcoming water year. The remaining 50,000 acre-feet of water will continue to be diverted to meet grower demand first with any excess water going to recharge ponds. Based on this projection, surface water deliveries will end in approximately 30 days.
If you have any questions or need assistance contacting your Irrigation Specialist, please call the District Office at (559) 896-1660.
Water Run 2021
Consolidated Irrigation District will begin Lone tree (Church water) deliveries on Tuesday, June 1, 2021. Church deliveries estimated duration to continue 30-60 days. Lone Tree water users should contact their Irrigation Specialist to schedule water delivery. Based on this year’s existing and anticipated runoff, there is not enough entitlement necessary to provide a complete turn for all those receiving Consolidated water. Therefore, there will be no Consolidated water run this year. If you have any questions, please call the District Office at (559) 896-1660.
Consolidated Irrigation District is accepting sealed bids for equipment and trucks for sale. The bids are due October 29, 2021 by 5 pm at District Office, 2255 Chandler St. If you have any questions, please contact office at (559) 896-1660.
