We are going to continue the standard schedule of “2-days on/2-days off”. This means your property should have water available every 2 days. Using the calendar, determine which days the water will be on in your area. The dividing line is the open ditch just north of Bayaud St. Properties north of the open ditch are in the North area and the properties south of the open ditch are in the South area. Refer to the calendar on the other side of this page for (N) North and (S) South. The ditch rider will turn the water on to your area at 8 am on your scheduled day. Please allow some time for the water to make its way to your property after he turns it on. If it becomes necessary for Aggie Ditch to cut back our flow due to low water conditions, we will modify the schedule appropriately and distribute the new schedule to the members.

Please continue to be considerate of your neighbors and water the minimum time necessary for your property. DO NOT USE WATER MORE THAN 6 HOURS PER DAY, LESS IF POSSIBLE. If water is not available to the downstream members of the asociation it will be necessary to take necessary action as provided by the rules so each member will only be able to water during designated times. If you have an automatic sprinkler system, please try to set it to operate between dark and daylight. Also, remember to put a ’Ditch Water’ sign somewhere in your yard so it is visible from the street when the water police drive by.

Residents along 4th: The watering calendar is not applicable to you. The water for that line is available every day. However, please be considerate of your neighbors downstream.
