The Quincy-Columbia Basin Irrigation District has announced plans to start filling the West Canal on Wednesday, March 17th, barring any unforeseen scheduling requirements. Priming will continue on smaller canals and laterals through the first week in April, depending on the weather and the demand for water deliveries.

After March 17th, water users are urged to contact their respective Water master headquarters to receive current information and schedules.
