Comments Now Being Taken On East Fork Modernization Plan

Public comments are now being sought on the draft plan for infrastructure modernization for the East Fork Irrigation District.  The Natural Resources Conservation Service has released its draft watershed plan-environmental assessment for the project.  Margi Hoffman of Farmers Conservation Alliance, which is one of the partners on the project, says the goal is to make the East Fork irrigation system more efficient by converting open-ditch irrigation canals into underground, closed-pipe systems.  The draft plan is available for review at oregonwatershedplans.org.  A public meeting is planned for January 29 from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Pine Grove Grange on 2835 Van Horn Drive in Hood River.
