dc.description.abstract | Facing a magnitude of issues including failing infrastructure, water rights challenges, and low water use efficiency, the Oakdale Irrigation District (OID) Board of Directors voted in 2004 to develop a Water Resource Plan (WRP) to guide the District for the next 20 years. The WRP was finalized and adopted by the Board in November 2005 with the five following goals stated: 1. Provide long-term protection to OID's water rights; 2. Address federal, state and local water challenges; 3. Rebuild/modernize an outdated system to meet changing customer needs; 4. Develop affordable ways to finance improvements; 5. Involve the public in the planning process. All of the stated goals are interrelated and progress on one has ancillary benefits to others. This paper will predominately focus on the rebuilding and modernizing efforts the OID has implemented since the adoption of the WRP, with major focus on the modernization of the District's diversion structures. This paper will discuss the many options available for modernization, the decision process on the path selected, and the implementation of projects to achieve modernization. | |
