Achieving More Together
Turlock Irrigation District, Modesto Irrigation District and the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission have been partners in and faithful stewards of the Tuolumne River and Watershed for over 110 years. Together, and individually, they have practiced responsible water management.
TID
Turlock Irrigation District: Established in 1887, the TID was the first irrigation district in the state of California. TID delivers irrigation water through over 250 miles of a gravity-fed canal system that irrigates approximately 150,000 acres of farmland and provides retail electricity to a population of 240,000 within a 662 square-mile area. With a push towards innovation, TID has been a leader in new initiatives and data-driven practices to provide value to its customers.
MID
