The board approved a surface water allocation of 0.55 acre-feet per acre for the 2026 water run, priced at $100 per acre-foot. The run is scheduled to begin June 15 and will last approximately about 5 weeks (staff noted roughly "five weeks and two days"). Landowners discussed an approach where those who cannot use their allocation may receive a 75% credit, and remaining water could be made available to others who can use it. The board discussed transferability of allocations but tabled that decision for a future meeting — likely tied to when surface water deliveries actually begin.
