1. Spray-Cast Pipelining Program Hits Record Production — Next Phase Targets Escalon K-Lines The district's irrigation CIP team set new records this season, lining approximately 15,500 linear feet of canal at $84 per linear foot — well under the $104/ft budget. Staff credited improved preparation, the vacuum truck, and a better concrete mix sourced from Sacramento. For the 2026–2027 season, crews plan to line roughly 17,600 feet along the K-lines from Santa Fe to Escalon, with the Q-lines targeted in the following two to three years. Landowner notifications are already underway — up to two years in advance — so growers along those corridors should expect outreach soon.
