8. Conservation of Water
a. Are you now employing water conservation efforts? Yes
Describe any water conservation efforts you have initiated The District has worked with landowners and farmers within the place of the use of this statement to implement good water management and good farming practices including but not limited to laser leveling of fields, varietal changes, and crop shifts. The quantity of water conserved through the actions taken by individual landowners and farmers has not been determined. In addition, the District operates an extensive tail water recovery and re-circulation system and has implemented strict polices limiting spills from fields during the irrigation season. Absent the District's re-circulation this additional quantity water would have been diverted to meet the demands within the District. The District also has a USBR approved water conservation plan. The District idled 5,916 acres due to a reduced contract supply which resulted in a reduction in the water needs within the place of use. Because the water savings due to these measures occurred under all of the District's various water rights, the quantity of water conserved has not been included in this report.
b. Amount of water conserved Acre-Feet
I have data to support the above surface water use reductions due to conservation efforts. Yes
9. Water Quality and Wastewater Reclamation
a. Are you now or have you been using reclaimed water from a wastewater treatment facility, desalination facility, or water polluted by waste to a degree which unreasonably affects such water for other beneficial causes? No
b. Amount of reduced diversion
Type of substitute water supply
Amount of substitute water supply used
I have data to support the above surface water use reductions due to the use of a substitute water supply
10. Conjuctive Use of Surface Water and Groundwater
a. Are you now using groundwater in lieu of surface water? No
b. Amount of groundwater used
I have data to support the above surface water use reductions due to the use of groundwater.
11a. Additional Remarks
Quantities shown include only water that was diverted or credited under this Statement. The quantities are allocated and reported under the Districts water rights based the priorities and limitations of the rights. The place of use is also served under License Nos. 7205 (A000462), 7206 (A000640), and 7207 (A000892), Permit No. 21133 (A030813), and Contract 14-06-200-856A-R-1 with the USBR. In addition, during the curtailment period lands were served by groundwater and recirculated tail water. The District participated in a water transfer program with the USBR in 2014 under which additional groundwater was pumped and served to the place of use in lieu of surface water deliveries under Contract 14-06-856A-R-1.
