The Truckee-Carson Board of Directors met in a regular meeting on Tuesday, April 6 to discuss the current water allocation for the year and other regular business.
Currently the board is projecting an 85% year on the Carson Division and a 93% year in the Truckee Division. This means that water users will only be delivered 85 or 93 percent, respectively, of their current water rights.
General Manager Rusty Jardine said that the Carson Lake Pasture is now officially property of the State of Nevada, “after all these years.” The transfer was authorized by Public Law 101-618 in 1990 but the details and actual transfer has taken the past 30 years to be implemented. The district will continue to manage grazing on the pasture for the benefit of the Newlands Project water right holders.
TCID meets the first Tuesday following the first Monday of each month at 9:00 a.m. at the district headquarters, 2666 Harrigan Road.
