NO WEEKEND WATERING starting 8/8/2025

 

Settlement Canyon Irrigation Shareholders:

 

Due to the rapidly dropping level of the reservoir, the weekend Watering Restrictions Begin Friday, August 8, 2025.

ALL Shareholders are not allowed to water from Friday 8pm until Monday 7am. That includes those shareholders with a meter.

 

The current level of the reservoir is 39.9 feet as of 8/4/2025. Last week the level was at 42.3feet, so it dropped 2.4 feet in one week. Thank you for being water wise and mindful of your usage.

Your cooperation is appreciated.

 

 

Thanks,

Kristin

Water Usage 7/28/2025

 

To All Shareholders,

 We are writing to inform you of a concerning drop in the water level at our reservoir. Over the past seven days, the reservoir has decreased by approximately 4 feet. This rate of depletion is unsustainable and could lead to mandatory watering restrictions if not addressed promptly.

 

To help avoid such restrictions, we are asking all shareholders to be water wise and use our irrigation resources as efficiently and sparingly as possible. This includes:

 

•              Watering only when necessary

 

•              Avoiding daytime watering to reduce evaporation

 

•              Checking for and fixing leaks in irrigation systems

 

•              Turning off water during rain or cooler weather

 

Currently, the reservoir level as of 7/28/2025, is 42.3 feet. In 2024 at this time, the level was 49 feet. In 2023 it was at 52 feet and in 2022 the level was at 28 feet. If we continue to drop, the first restriction would be no weekend watering for all shareholders, even those with a meter on their connection.

 

Our goal is to slow the current rate of use so that we can continue to provide adequate water for all shareholders throughout the remainder of the irrigation season. If we can all work together and be mindful of our water usage, we can help preserve this vital resource and avoid further restrictions.

 

We appreciate your cooperation and stewardship of our shared water resources. If you have any questions or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

 

Sincerely,

Settlement Canyon Irrigation Company

**UPDATE** 7/3/2025 Water lines shut off for those North and West of 200 South and Coleman

 ***7/3/2025 (4pm) UPDATE The water has been turned on for most connections. There is a small section between Utah  Ave and Vine Street along Coleman that does not have the water turned back on. The rest of the connections have their water back on. ***

The water has been shut off due to 2 breaks in the line of the irrigation system.

The water is off for those North and West of 200 South and Coleman. The leaks are being repaired right now.

Thanks for your patience.

7/2/2025 ** update there are multiple breaks that happened at the same time. They are trying to repair the broken lines, but it will take several days. They are hoping the water is on by the end of the week. Weston is working on it.***

Settlement Canyon Reservoir 1/20/2025

 

Dear Shareholders,

We want to let you know that Settlement Canyon Reservoir is now closed to the public. This wasn't an easy decision, but it's one we feel necessary to keep everyone safe.

Unfortunately, despite our efforts to monitor the area and educate the public, we have been unable to keep people away from the dangerous areas of the ice. This creates serious risks, and closing the reservoir is the only way we can truly prevent another tragedy from happening.

Your safety means everything to us, and we appreciate your understanding as we take this step to protect our community. We know this may cause some inconvenience, and we are truly sorry for that, but we hope you'll support us as we put safety first.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Settlement Canyon Irrigation Company
