About the company

North Unit Irrigation District is a local government entity based in Madras, Oregon, registered with SAM.gov since April 2005. The District provides water infrastructure management and irrigation services to the Deschutes Basin region in Central Oregon, serving agricultural users and broader regional water management needs. Through federal grant awards, NUID receives funding to implement water conservation projects, modernize irrigation infrastructure, and conduct applied research related to water resource management and environmental restoration in the Deschutes River Basin.

NUID has received nine federal grant awards totaling approximately $9.6 million from the Bureau of Reclamation, EPA Region 10, and the National Resources Conservation Service, demonstrating significant federal investment in the District's infrastructure and research initiatives. The District's grant-funded work spans water conveyance efficiency improvements, including the lining of 6,000 feet of its main canal to reduce seepage loss by approximately 50 percent and the conversion of 4,450 linear feet of open canals to buried high-density polyethylene pipe. NUID has also received funding for aquatic ecosystem restoration, including a $9.18 million cooperative agreement to replace aging rotary drum fish screens with flat plate screens at the Bend Headworks on the Deschutes River to improve fish passage and reduce entrainment of native species. The District has undertaken water measurement and monitoring projects, such as installing telemetry-equipped flumes on Pipeline 58-11 to enable real-time pipeline flow monitoring and control. Additionally, NUID has pursued renewable energy and climate adaptation initiatives, including a floating solar panel pilot project on its main canal intended to conserve 160 acre-feet of water annually and generate revenue, as well as feasibility research on cloud seeding to augment snowpack in the Deschutes Basin. Most recently, NUID was awarded a cooperative agreement with the National Resources Conservation Service to construct Project Group 1, Lateral 43 in Jefferson County. All awards were direct federal grant awards with no identified sub-recipients or sub-partners.
