Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation Districts in California: 1887-1915 The irrigation district is now an established institution in California, First authorized in California on a comprehensive basis in 1887, after an agitation in favor of neighborhood irrigation extending over at least fifteen years, and with extreme bitterness toward riparian proprietors, following the decision in Lux vs. Hoggin, probably furnishing much of the motive force that carried the Wright act of 1887 through the legislature, it has been found to be a workable and desirable plan for community ownership and operation of irrigation works. It is not the form of irrigation organization that is numerically strongest in California, nor is it very likely to attain numerical precedence over the co-operative or mutual irrigation company. Neither is it the form of organization under which the largest acreage is now irrigated in this State. It is, however, the form of organization that is now most generally considered both for new and for the reorganization of old irrigation development in California, as it is the form that has been most largely employed in this State in the more important new irrigation development and reorganization of the present decade. The irrigation district idea did not originate in California. Prior to the passage of the Wright act, Italy, France, and Spain had provided for neighborhood irrigation systems to which the district plan is somewhat similar. Municipal organization had also been employed in drainage. The first irrigation district legislation in the United States was passed by Utah in 1865. That legislation provided that county clerks, on application of a majority of landowners in areas proposed to be organized, should create districts. In those districts landowners were the electors, if land taxes were to be levied, or taxpayers, if general property taxes. A few districts were formed under that act, but nothing important was accomplished. The first California irrigation district act was passed in 1872, "An act to promote irrigation by the formation of irrigation districts." It provided that owners of lands desiring to irrigate or drain them might petition the county supervisors for the formation of irrigation districts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Irrigation District Laws, 1939 Revision The extent to which the irrigation district laws of California have been utilized in developing the agricultural and water resources of the State has made it desirable to assemble the principal acts in convenient published form. Following each legislative session since 1919, the Division of Water Resources and its predecessors, the Department of Engineering, and the Division of Engineering and Irrigation, have compiled and issued revised editions of these laws to include the numerous amendments and additions that have been adopted to meet changing requirements found necessary under operating conditions. Bulletin 18-f is the eleventh volume in this series of publications. It includes the text of the California Districts Securities Commission Act and the four district acts that have been most used in creating organizations for the development and distribution of water for irrigation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Irrigation District Laws as Amended 1919 The irrigation districts legally in existence December 1, 1919, are listed below. This list does not include several of the original Wright Act districts organized prior to 1895 which for one reason or another have never been formally dissolved, but which have never been active. The list, however, does include six districts approved by the state engineer and organized in 1919 but not yet fully operating; three organized in 1919 but not reported on by the state engineer; and twelve organized after 1913 and prior to 1919 for which no satisfactory plans for construction or operation have yet been made and which have issued no bonds. Of the 52 listed, something over 32 may be properly considered as Operating. Some of the 32 have merely taken over more or less complete water systems built by former mutual or public utility companies and may or may not be in full working order; others have completed most of their construction and, are thoroughly established. Examples of the former are such districts as Beaumont and Fairoaks; examples of the latter are Modesto, Turlock and Alta.

This book was released on 2018-12-26 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost of Water to Irrigators in California This report represents the results of a field study of the cost of water to irrigators under various types of irrigation enterprises in California, which was supported cooperatively by the Bureau of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, the Department of Public Works of California, and the University of California Agricultural Experi ment Station. Water yearly is becoming of higher value and more difficult to obtain, in consideration of which bankers, investors, govern ment officials, engineers, and farmers may well ask what expenditure can be justified to develop a water supply on land suitable for growing high grade crops, and what water charge can such land pay. Farmers and prospective farmers are in need of such cost data as will enable them to choose creps that may be grown profitably under existing water charges. In California the following types of enterprises may furnish irrigation water: public utilities, contract companies, irrigation districts, mutual water companies, individuals, partnerships, associations, private com panics, United States Bureau of Reclamation, United. States Indian Service, state land settlements, water works districts, municipal improve ment districts, and reclamation districts. However, for the purpose of this investigation, most of the data collected may be placed under one of Jour classifications: public utilities, irrigation districts, mutual water companies, or private pumping plants. For a report of this character to be useful in published form, it must give information on the type of irrigation system, locality, age, source of water supply, duty of water, acreage irrigated, kind of creps, capital invested, and water charges, in addition to annual cost of water to the irrigator. Such data were obtained for this report by visiting the princi pal irrigation enterprises oi the state. The data on private pumping plants were obtained by making field tests in each case. Figures on duty of water given in the report are of varying degrees of accuracy. Some. Are results of careful measurements or metering. At. The other extreme are merely the best estimates of the system engineer or superintendent, based on occasional or periodical gaging and close familiarity with the use of water under the system. Great care was taken, however, to have the figures represent, if not exactly, at least approximately, the true use of water, and none have been included that were not considered by the system engineer or superintendent to conform to this standard.

This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost of Irrigation Water in California: A Cooperative Report In California the following types of enterprises furnish irriga tion water: public utilities. Contract companies, irrigation districts, mutual water companies, individuals. Partnerships, associations, pri vate companies, United States Bureau of Reclamation, United States Indian Service, State land settlements, water works districts, municipal improvement districts and reclamation districts. However, for the purpose of this investigation, most of the data collected may be grouped in four classes: public utilities, mutual water companies, irrigation districts and farm irrigation pumping plants. For a report of this character to be useful in published form, it should give information on the type of irrigation system, locality, age, source of water supply, amount of water delivered, acreage irrigated, crops raised, capital invested, and water charges, in addition to annual cost of water to the irrigator. In this study such data were obtained by visiting the principal irrigation enterprises of the state. The tables on cost of irrigation water are based on data furnished by the agency distributing the water or by the water user. On the major and more important tables, a notation to this effect is made. It was neither feasible nor practicable to extend the investigation to include all irrigation enterprises in California. However, it is believed that the data presented are well representative of the costs throughout the state. Much information collected was so fragmentary and incomplete that its inclusion was not warranted. \vhi1e the report covers the past several years, the data for the vear 1929 are presented in more detail than that for other years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplemental Report on Water Resources of California: A Report to the Legislature of 1925 The cause of these large areas being only partly occupied, does not emanate from sluggishness in the rate of settlement on California's lands, for California is outstripping all other states of the Union in the rate of its increasing agricultural production. On the contrary, the cause of the only partly occupied irrigated lands issues directly from the large size of new projects, that in a year or two, bring under irrigation in one community, an area of land greater than can be absorbed by normal growth within as many decades. During these years, many tracts, making little use of the available water supply, are heavily taxed to pay the costs of works unused by them.
