THE FALLS IRRIGATION DISTRICT (DISTRICT), LOCATED IN AMERICAN FALLS, IDAHO, PROVIDES IRRIGATION WATER TO 12,621 ACRES IN A SINGLE IRRIGATION SEASON. THE MAJORITY OF THE DISTRICT IS SERVED BY THE GRAVITY CANAL SYSTEM FROM THE SNAKE RIVER. DURING YEARS OF DROUGHT, THE SURFACE WATER PUMPING PLANT IS UNABLE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF WATER USERS LATE IN THE IRRIGATION SEASON DUE TO LOSS OF HEAD IN AMERICAN FALLS RESERVOIR. TO SECURE A RELIABLE WATER SUPPLY FOR LATE SEASON DELIVERIES, THE DISTRICT HAS SECURED THE WATER RIGHTS FROM THE IDAHO DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES TO DRILL THREE WELLS TO PUMP WATER FROM THE SNAKE RIVER PLAIN AQUIFER INTO THE DISTRICTS EXISTING CANAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM. THE THREE ADDITIONAL WELLS THAT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED AS A RESULT OF THIS PROJECT WILL PROVIDE THE DISTRICT UP TO AN ADDITIONAL 1,873 ACRE-FEET OF SUPPLEMENTAL SUPPLY IN TIMES OF DROUGHT. THIS PROJECT IS PART OF THE DISTRICTS DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS TO RESPOND DROUGHT DECLARATIONS AND UTILIZE GROUNDWATER SUPPLIES WHEN SURFACE WATER SUPPLIES ARE MORE AVAILABLE.
