What happened
The Imperial Irrigation District Board of Directors approved take-or-pay relief periods for 2026 to assist agricultural water users. Under this policy, Iid will accept up to 7% of an accepted apportionment to fill water requests from other users during designated relief periods. The relief periods established for late 2026 include September, October, November, and End-of-Year.
