Description
The selahmoxeeirrigation district (SMID), in yakima county, washington, will expand on their current water marketing strategy to address the declining groundwater in the eastmoxeearea of the yakima basin. Water users in this area, which includes over 7,400 acres of irrigated farmland, commercial business, and municipal uses, rely on groundwater, which is declining as much as 13 feet per year for the last few decades. SMID will build on support for the water marketing concept garnered through their 2018WATERSMARTWATER marketing strategy grant to expand landowner outreach, integrate consideration of out-of-basin supply, evaluate potential economic impacts, and develop inter-local agreements for water marketing. A water market strategy document that will detail SMID's water market structure including implementation and operation. This project will benefit multiple water sectors by increasing the overall water supply and is supported by local farmers, local and state government entities, including washington's department of ecology, department of commerce and state legislature.
