Welcome!

Farmers Irrigation District strives to promote ecologically, socially, and economically sustainable agriculture by providing energy and irrigation service for the common good

Spray Water and Winterization

Irrigation season ended on September 30th. Water may still be present in some areas of the system for orchard spray water or hydropower production. This water may NOT be used for irrigation purposes on any property.

The FID is working to winterize areas of the distribution system. You can isolate your private irrigation system by closing the valve at the point of delivery.

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.
