Responsibilities

GVWUA is responsible for the flow of water in its canal, in its laterals and through its headgates. All parts of delivery systems (ditches, laterals, pipelines, pumps) beyond the headgates are the responsibility of landowners. If subdivisions in the GVWUA service area are interested in organizing their own laterals via a Homeowner’s Association, please contact the GVWUA at (970)242-5065.

Seasonal Water Turn on/Turnoff Information

Fall 2019, irrigation water was turned off at the dam November 1, 2019 (it takes 3-4 days for the water to empty out of the canal to Mack).  In Ditch Ride 1 area (from 24 1/2 Road to 29 Road) open ditches were turned off around Friday, October 25th, due to falling leaves and debris clogging the flow of irrigation water in the open ditches.

Thank you, we appreciate your cooperation.
