Crop Types / Consumptive Use: Approximately 160 acres of the lands are planted with alfalfa hay; remaining lands are native grass hay and pasture.1
Return Flows: Return flows are delivered to the Smith's Fork Creek.1
Other Operational Information: Water users who have storage rights in reservoirs located in Utah are restricted to a May 15th ditch turn-on date, and a October 1st turn-off date. Other water uses may use water from the ditch when not regulated by priority date. Typically, the ditch is turned on during the third week on April.1
