Dinuba, CA – Alta Irrigation District will officially begin the 2025 Water Run on Monday, May 19, and has announced the initial entitlement schedule for this year’s water run. Over the course of a season, the District will adjust entitlement schedules and cycles based on available supply.
According to recent projections from the Kings River Water Association (KRWA) and the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), Kings River runoff for the 2025 water year (October 1 – September 30) is expected to fall on the border between a “Normal” and “Below Normal” classification.
In response – and in keeping with typical operations during similar runoff conditions – water allotments will be made available only to lands with an entitlement category of 25% or higher. Lands within the 5% entitlement category (also referred to as “Groundwater Only”) will not receive an allotment during this year’s water run.
