Highlighting Bard Water District and how they help Yuma County
YUMA, Arizona. (KYMA, KECY) - On Tuesday's HomeGrown, we highlight a local water district, Bard Water District.
The district is a part of the Yuma Project, one of the first federal projects on the Colorado River.
Bard Water delivers water to farmers throughout the Winterhaven area.
Nick Bahr, the general manager of Bard Water, explains how the process of ordering water works.
"After you've placed your water order, in our system, that system tells our operation system how much water needs to be delivered at what time, it sends a signal to our automatic gage similar to this one," Bahr says.
Bard Water is currently working on an automation system for their district.
This will make adjustments on it's own without human input.
