The Harlingen Irrigation District Cameron County No. 1 in Texas received a $219,732.76 Project Grant award on July 11, 2023 from the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA #15.507). The grant funding will be used to upgrade the canal flow measurement instrumentation at the Adams Gardens River Pump Station with an acoustic Doppler flowmeter and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) controls. These infrastructure improvements will allow the district to operate the Adams Gardens Main Canal at a higher capacity, add storage, and improve the overall system efficiency. The project is aligned with the 2021 Rio Grande Regional Water Plan's focus on reservoir expansions, metering, and SCADA projects as proven water conservation practices for the region.
