We are excited to announce that another significant milestone has been reached for the Odessa Groundwater Replacement Program (OGWRP). The second OGWRP system, known as EL 86.4, is now receiving surface water through the Columbia Basin Project.

The data collected through the Columbia Basin Conservation District's (CBCD) Groundwater Monitoring Program serves as a critical tool for assessing and informing the implementation of local conservation efforts and sustainable water use in the basin.

Side by side with the Columbia Basin Development League (CBDL) and the East Columbia Basin Irrigation District (ECBID), CBCD was invited to meet with several members of Washington State’s congressional delegation, federal committee members, and agency leadership on March 2nd and 3rd to advocate for the advancement of the Columbia Basin Project, including the Odessa Groundwater Replacement Program (OGWRP).
