§ 22095 District Drainage Authority

• •If a place gives water to farms, they can also handle the extra water that runs off.
• •This means they can make drains or ditches to stop flooding from the irrigation water.
• •It’s about keeping farms safe from too much water.

A farming area gets water from a big irrigation system, but sometimes the water pools and floods the fields.

The people in charge can build drains to take away the extra water so the farms don’t get ruined.
