About Us: |
|
Our operations include 7 hard working employees and 3 members on the Board of Directors (all live with in our district). Included in the employees we have two ditch riders and a canal patrolman, Who are they? These three men are the ones who direct our water to the correct laterals from the our main canal, making sure your land has water every two weeks . They are not the only ones helping out with the water, our equipment operator is just as important. He keeps our laterals clean and fix any problems along the canal year round, whether that be removing blackberries or replacing old turn outs.
During the off season: |

Winter storms can be very powerful. Heavy rains and strong winds cause a lot of damage to road and water ways. This keeps the crew on their toes during the winter months. Wash outs can't always be prevented. Mother Nature still rules the roost when it comes to the ground movement. We can help by lining our canals with gunite to prevent the erosion of the soil. The crew is always trying to improve the delivery system by monitoring water levels and cleaning branches/ limbs from canals.
