It returns to the former lakes and marshlands, supplements the local micro-climate, and recharges the shallow aquifer \u2014 all while growing <strong>food and fiber for the nation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n    <p>Over recent weeks we have met repeatedly with the leadership of our sister districts to make sure we share a clear, common understanding of the damage and harm facing the communities we all serve. Our assessment is direct: <strong>Reclamation's 2026 Operations Plan has failed.<\/strong><\/p>\n    <p>The KID Board of Directors provided clear and adequate guidance throughout this process. Even so, the anxiety of the year led Reclamation to issue guidance that conflicted with our contracts, conflicted with Reclamation's own letters out of Washington, D.C., conflicted with Department of the Interior memos, and created confusion across districts \u2014 at a moment when capable managers and leadership are firmly in place in every one of those districts. Those conflicting edicts have since been <strong>rescinded<\/strong>, and the District has affirmed that any future conflicts of this kind will be addressed as our contract requires.<\/p>\n    <p>The Klamath Reclamation Project is operated by several irrigation and drainage districts. <strong>Each district is responsible for distributing and managing its own proportionate share<\/strong> of Project water, and each is planning its diversions according to its own authorities. KID cannot control every basin-wide program or every diversion in the Project \u2014 what KID can do is manage its own operations, reduce avoidable demand, account for every drop put to beneficial use, and enforce against waste.<\/p>\n    <p>Working within this plan is <strong>not<\/strong> an endorsement of Reclamation's Operations Plan. It is simply how we are choosing to operate given the limitations imposed on the Project's water supply for the 2026 irrigation season \u2014 limitations developed under the prior federal administration.
