Farmers Union Operations

May 2: The staff of the San Luis Valley Irrigation District would like to wait a few days to see if flows on the Rio Grande will get high enough to put the Farmers Union Canal into direct flow priority before they start releasing reservoir water from Rio Grande Reservoir. This information will be updated the next few days going forward through May 2025.
