Irrigation Season Startup
FID crews have charged almost all of FID's distribution system. If you do not have water, please check your service valve, any valves within your shared private system, and your filter. Remember that filters will often need additional cleaning at the beginning of the season due to sediment transport when lines are filled.
If you still don't have water, please call the office at 541-387-5261 between 7:30am-12:00pm and 1:00pm-4:00pm, or leave a voicemail on the office line, to notify FID of your assistance needs. Thank you!
2026 Water Supply and Water Conservation
FID is anticipating low water supplies this season due to a historically low snowpack (you can learn more here). Please implement water conservation and active water management practices as you operate your irrigation system this season. Water supply reductions or watering restrictions are possible later in the season, especially for patrons in the Upper and Middle Sections (learn more about delivery sections here).
Building Permits
Applications and site plans can be submitted for FID sign-off via email. Contact Megan at megan@fidhr.org or 541-387-5261 for questions or to set up an appointment.
Irrigation Season
Irrigation season legally starts on April 15th and ends September 30th. The irrigation season for the Hood River Basin is set by state law and FID can not provide irrigation water outside of that season.
