Irrigation deliveries will begin the first week in May. We are going into a very challenging season and we have yet to see how our primary reservoirs will react to the snowmelt. At this point, Fish and Fourmile lake are 48% of average for this time of year and 30% of full-pool. We rely on supplemental irrigation for our west side out of Emigrant, Hyatt, and Howard Prairie. We currently only have 18% of our allotment available in those reservoirs. Without knowing what weather patterns we will see and how the reservoirs will react to the snowpack, we are anticipating a shortened season with the possibility of running out of water sometime in August. We will update those projections as the reservoirs begin to react to the snowmelt and the streamflows stabilize.
