Nevada Irrigation District is required as part of the Water Shortage Contingency Plan to provide an analysis of forecasted water availability for the upcoming summer months. The forecast incorporates current reservoir storage and anticipated snowpack runoff based on snow survey data. This analysis is used to determine the amount of water available for the summer irrigation season, and to make a determination on whether a Water Shortage Contingency Plan will need to be enacted. Tomorrow, the board of Nevada Irrigation District (NID) will meet and receive an update on current and forecasted water supply and adopt a resolution making a declaration of surplus water availability for 2026.
