The U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation awarded a $4,105,000 project grant through the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA 15.507) to the West Cache Irrigation Co, a non-profit organization, to equip the West Cache Canal with telemetry, control, and measuring devices. The project will replace existing manual spillway structures with automated gates, install cameras, and replace motor drives with energy-efficient variable frequency drives. These improvements will enable canal managers to remotely control and efficiently manage the flow of water through the canal. The project funds the design, construction, and start-up of the control devices and telemetry system, with a performance period from February 3, 2025 to June 30, 2026.
