From the meeting
The August 20, 2026 packet reviewed the Irrigator SWAP, a cost-share program for Deschutes County private landholders investing in irrigation and water conservation infrastructure. The program pays 75% of project cost with a maximum District contribution of $60,000, and projects must meet eligibility rules including a certified water right, legal authority for at least two years, and uninstalled infrastructure. Applications are open with an annual cutoff date, ranking, and contract award period.
Contract recipients have two years from award to implement the infrastructure and must retain it for 15 years.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
