WATER USE LETTERS
Reminder Water Use Letters are no longer being mailed out to all water users because we have an online site at www.southboardofcontrol.com that can be accessed for water use reports by water users. You will need to contact the office for instruction, an activation pin and customer number for first sign-in to your account. This is for viewing only, not for water orders. If you do not have access to a computer, you can call the office, and we will be glad to help you get your water use information or mail out a water use report.
2026 IRRIGATION INFORMATION
The South Canal out of the Owyhee Reservoir delivering to Ridgeview and New Gem will have a reduced water allotment down from 4 acre feet to 3.5 acre feet.
The River Pumps or Old Gem will not have an allotment reduction and stay at 4 ac feet allotment.
The office can give you a report on remaining allotment at anytime by calling (208)337-3760.
Ownership / Entity Changes
Please remember if you make any changes to the ownership, such as transfering your property to a Trust, Corporation/LLC, or Partnership to contact the office so records can be updated. If you are required to do the Reclamation Forms, this must be done within 60 days of the change so forms can be updated timely.
