Notice: May 6, 2026
This is Matt Stewart, general manager of the Aberdeen Springfield Canal Company, with an important water update.
We have been on Full storage since last Thursday. At this time, we cannot guarantee a return to natural flow this season.
We are moving to a five days on, three days off rotation at each headgate. Please contact your ditch rider to set staggered start days to maintain a consistent flow, ideally close to 1000 cfs.
We cannot provide allotments yet. Water District 1 has not given us our allocation, so we do not know how much storage is available. We will share the allotments as soon as they are provided, hopefully within the next few weeks.
Please keep water use as low as possible. When we are out, we are out for good. Thank you for your cooperation.
If you would like to receive these notices by text message in the future, please text ALERT to 22300.
