Middle Snake-Payette Clean Water Project

Payette Soil & Water Conservation District plans on submitting a proposal for grant funding in July, 2020. The success of our application for funding is dependent upon shovel ready projects. If you are interested in installing a practice on your farm or ranch please give us a call to see if it is a good fit to include in our proposal for funding.

A sediment basin like this can remove 65% or more of the sediment from irrigation return water from a field, returning much cleaner water to the canal and keeping your top soil on your land.
