Overland and Redlands Mesa Project water had to be cut back this evening. Early water is coming to an end. Your water flow will drop.
We will start releasing water from the Overland Reservoir very soon.
Redlands Mesa shareholders will go to late water only. Orders will have to go in to receive your late water. I will let you know when we do our first late water order. If you do not want to be turned off, please get a order in the box as soon as possible. There most likely will be a pro-rate period after early water is done.

Redlands Mesa Project Shareholders, We will be on late water Friday June 12,2020
Pro-Rate is over as of today. Get your orders in by 6:00 pm on Sunday June 14, 2020, if you need water. It’s going to be a rough water season. Please get with your neighbors and work together running water. It helps a lot when we get enough orders to have a good run.
Overland Shareholders, the wind we have had has knocked a lot of trees down the entire Overland Ditch. The guys have been working hard to get them cleared out of the ditch, the last few days. We will get the flow up as soon as we can.
Overlands Shareholders:
Early water has dropped so low, we started turning Reservoir water in today.
Redlands Mesa Project Shareholders:
Today is the last set of early water. We will be on late water Tuesday June 9, 2020. We will most likely have some pro-rate water to start Late Season. If you wish to put an order in to recieve more then your pro-rated shares, please have your order cards in one of the boxes on Redlands Mesa (Redlands Mesa Grange, east side of the building and at the corner of North Road and Redlands Mesa Road) no later then 6:00 pm Sunday June 7, 2020.
