Dear MID Water User,
The purpose of this letter is to provide you with advance notice that the District will officially end the 2011 water season on Friday, October, 28th. Water users on the upper end of the District's deliver system may expect available flows to decline of the following 2-3 days.
2011 has been a terrific water season. An early start coupled with lower water costs and ample water supplies has enabled the District to deliver a tremendous amount of water and provide substantial groundwater recharge. And the 2011 season came on the heels of the 2010 season, another long water season with ample supplies
We hope this advance notice assists you with your late season water delivery and cultural practice planning.
