1. Water Year 2027 Allocations Expected to Hold Steady — But Future Adjustments Are Being Discussed The board reviewed the draft WY 2027 allocation recommendation from Four Creeks. The sustainable yield allocation remains at 1.37 acre-feet per acre (plus precipitation-based allocation, to be finalized closer to the water year). The sub-basin is in Year 2 of the 70% total allowable overdraft ramp-down (Tier 1 at 0.31 AF/acre, Tier 2 at 0.23 AF/acre). Staff noted there are early indicators that belt-tightening may be needed sooner than the planned ramp-down schedule. No formal action was taken on allocations or pricing today.
