Farmers Irrigation District is closing in on finishing its Kingsley Reservoir expansion project. District General Manager Les Perkins says the last lift on the dam was placed on Monday, putting it at full height. Perkins said now they are doing detail work and finishing up campground replacement, and it all should be wrapped up this fall. The project will nearly double the volume of the upper Kingsley Reservoir and will help to provide a consistent supply of stored winter water while decreasing demand on live stream flow late in the summer. The district had initially planned to complete the project in 2020, but a number of delays pushed back completion into this year.
