Download or read book Permissible Annual Charges for Irrigation Water in Upper San Joaquin Valley written by Frank Adams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-04 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Permissible Annual Charges for Irrigation Water in Upper San Joaquin Valley: A Cooperative Report by the College of Agriculture, University of California Table 1 shows the, excess of farm income over the costs of producing and harvesting the crops considered, together with interest on the average investment at 6 per cent per annum; also the amounts it is believed can reasonably be. Paid for irrigation water. The costs considered permissible. Are for a full supply of water delivered at the land on which it is to be used. And are therefore intended to include all such items as interest and principal payments on necessary capital expenditures for irrigation works and water supply, costs of maintenance and operation of irrigation works, as ordinarily understood, and supplemental pumping. It is not suggested that none of the growers in the upper San Joaquin Valley can pay higher irrigation charges for the different crops studied than are arrived at herein. Some, of course, produce more than others. And there are wide differences in the efficiency of growers, types of farm enterprises, amount of: working capital available, and the numerous other factors that determine cost of production and farm income. Neither is it suggested that the charges proposed can be paid by all of the growers, this also being because of the differences mentioned above. The permissible charges suggested are intended to be base, charges which will be assessed in accordance with the earning capacity of the land; that is. On a benefit or ad valorem basis.

Download or read book California Irrigation District Laws Classic Reprint written by California; Division of Engi Irrigation and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Irrigation District Laws This bulletin contains in complete form only those laws relating to California irrigation district organizations which come before the state engineer or the state bond certification commission for some part of their procedure. There are other statutes providing for additional forms of organization with which neither the state engineer nor bond certification commission has any official duties. Such statutes are briefly described herein but are not included. The extent to which the different forms of irrigation district laws have been utilized in the irrigation development of the state has made it desirable to assemble such acts together with their amendments in convenient published form. The number and importance of the changes made in these acts at each session of the legislature has made it essential to revise these publications following each session. This has been done, and the bulletins of this department containing these laws for past years are listed together with other bulletins of the department on the inside back cover of this publication. There are other acts relating to the functions of the Division of Water Resources which are not contained in this bulletin. Such acts include the water commission act, and the act relating to the supervision of dams. References to separate publications of these acts, where available, are also given inside the back cover of this bulletin. The wide variation in the conditions in different areas desiring to organize for irrigation development in California has resulted in the enactment of a similarly wide variety of acts for such purposes. Such variations include those of size of the area to be organized, extent and character of the purposes to be accomplished, extent of the cost, nature of land ownership, and type of agricultural practice. For areas requiring extensive financing carefully worked out acts providing for the procedure for such financing are available. For areas of low cost desiring simplicity of operation, less formal types of organization may be used. There follows a brief discussion of the various California conservation acts, the first five of which are published in full in this bulletin. This discussion is a summary of a similar part of Bulletin 21 of the Department of Public Works, Division of Engineering and Irrigation, entitled "Irrigation Districts in California," which contains detail information regarding individual districts organized under the more important acts. California Irrigation District Act. This term is used specifically to describe the act governing organizations formed under the older or Wright irrigation district law with its subsequent amendments. While organizations under all similar laws are in a general sense, irrigation districts, other laws have been given various distinguishing titles in an effort to avoid confusion. This act is also frequently referred to as the California Irrigation District Act. The original or Wright Act, passed in 1887, was largely rewritten by the Bridgeford Act in 1897, and has been extensively amended by nearly every recent legislature.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Irrigation District Laws, 1939 Revision The extent to which the irrigation district laws of California have been utilized in developing the agricultural and water resources of the State has made it desirable to assemble the principal acts in convenient published form.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paper on the Irrigation Laws and Decisions of California This paper was prepared for insertion in a work on the History of the Bench and Bar of California, of which it forms but a very small part. It contains some discus sion of questions growing out of a live and important subject in this State, and with the permission of the pub lishers, at whose instance it was prepared, it is also is sued in this form for more convenient practical use, if found to be useful. It is not intended as a full or com prehensive treatment of the important questions consid ered, nor are all the authorities attempted to be re viewed, or even cited. The purpose for which it was written would not allow of any such extended treatment. But it is hoped that it may be found interesting, and to some extent useful, to those having an interest in the ir rigation laws of the State. And who is there in the State that has not such an interest? It is believed that there is no more important and far-reaching question, or one which affects more nearly, or more extensively, the best interests and prosperity of the whole State.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Cases on Water Rights and Irrigation Law in California and Western States The purpose in selecting these cases has been to furnish as complete a study as possible of the Law of Water Rights. Because of lack of space where the California and Colorado doctrines conflict upon any principle, no attempt has been made to use cases establishing the Colorado doctrine. In arranging the cases it has been the aim to place them in such order as to follow the growth and development of one principle from another. Such an arrangement should aid the student to more readily understand the underlying reasons and sound logic upon which this branch of our juris prudence has been built.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplemental Report on Water Resources of California: A Report to the Legislature of 1925 The cause of these large areas being only partly occupied, does not emanate from sluggishness in the rate of settlement on California's lands, for California is outstripping all other states of the Union in the rate of its increasing agricultural production. On the contrary, the cause of the only partly occupied irrigated lands issues directly from the large size of new projects, that in a year or two, bring under irrigation in one community, an area of land greater than can be absorbed by normal growth within as many decades. During these years, many tracts, making little use of the available water supply, are heavily taxed to pay the costs of works unused by them.

Download or read book The Problem of Securing Closer Relationship Between Agricultural Development and Irrigation Construction Classic Reprint written by David Weeks and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Securing Closer Relationship Between Agricultural Development and Irrigation Construction Irrigation Development in California - The state of California comprises acres. Of this, 29 per cent is agricultural land included in farms, 12 per cent is cultivated, 5 per cent is irrigated, and 8 per cent is under irrigation projects completed or partly constructed. Of the total area of the state 15 per cent may ultimately be irrigated. From 1909 to 1920 there was an increase of 58 per cent of the irrigated area of the state, but irrigation construction was provided for a larger area. Lag of Profitable Farming Behind Irrigation Construction - The total area projects were equipped to irrigate in 1924 amounted to acres. Of this, acres, or about 18 per cent, were irrigable but not irrigated, and acres, or about 82 per cent, were irrigated but not all of this was fully improved. Only acres, or 71 per cent, were making good use of the water. In the projects in the state acres of non-agricultural land, which is nominally assessed, were included. This land contributes little revenue to the projects, but is included because the larger total acreage results in a smaller average cost per acre for construction, which helps in promotion and financing. In addition, there are approximately acres of irrigable land in projects for which construction has not yet been provided.

This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New River Basin and Lower California Irrigation Enterprise of the California Development Co Character of Soil. - With the exception of acres of Mesa lands under the East branch survey, the entire body of irrigable lands between the Salton Sink, and the River, is an alluvium, formed by the Colorado River. This area embraces no tracts of sand, it is very fertile, and remarkably even in its structure. The soil contains from IO to 20 per cent. Of clay hence is strong and retentive of moisture. Some patches of salt lands exist in Lower California; but these are excluded from our estimate of good land, notwithstanding the fact that local experience has demonstrated that these salt lands are rendered clean and productive by the application of water. The sedimentary deposit is from 20 to 200 feet in depth. Vegetation. - A large part of the Lower California tract is covered with a dense vegetation. Groves of cottonwood, mesquite and willow alternate with areas covered with native grasses, arrow weed, greasewood and wild hemp. In the United States timber is found along the Salton and New Rivers. After heavy rains the country is covered with a heavy growth of pepper grass, which makes excellent forage for cattle.
