Imperial Irrigation District

The Imperial Irrigation District (IID) is a public utility that supplies water and electricity to residents and farmers in Southern California's Imperial Valley. It manages a vast network of aqueducts, canals, and power facilities, primarily supporting agriculture but also serving urban communities. The district plays a crucial role in providing reliable water for farming, which is vital to the region's economy, and generates hydroelectric power from its irrigation systems. As a public agency, IID operates under local governance, balancing water and energy needs with regional conservation and sustainability efforts.
