2026 Water Season

The RID Board of Directors has set the 2026 water allocation at 14″ per acre. This was determined after careful review of the current reservoir levels, snowpack information and modelling completed by Alberta Agriculture and Irrigation. You can see the current reservoir levels and snowpack reports on the Alberta Rivers app or by visiting https://rivers.alberta.ca/.  

The RID water supervisors will begin flushing our canals during the week of April 27. Pipelines and laterals with then be filled during the week of May 4, making water available to users during the week of May 11. Please contact your water supervisor directly to inquiry about when water in your specific area or line will be available. Your water supervisor’s contact information can be found in the “Contact Us” tab.    

If you have any questions or would like to discuss your operations please feel free to call the RID office at 403-752-3511 or stop by for visit (office hours are 9:00am – 4:00pm).
