Sutter Mutual Water Company
No full textPresented at SCADA and related technologies for irrigation district modernization: a USCID water management conference on October 26-29, 2005 in Vancouver, Washington.In 1999 Sutter Mutual Water Company (SMWC) and Cal Poly ITRC began work together with the USBR on a project effort to install a VFD unit and a SCADA system into the Portuguese Bend Pumping Plant, one of SMWC's four pumping plants that convey water from the Sacramento River onto 46,746 acres of farmland in the Sutter County sub-basin. The project was formulated and implemented in order to reduce the high amount of power consumed by the existing 30-year-old equipment, to minimize maintenance and labor costs, and to improve control of the in-stream flows to achieve more efficient use of limited water supplies. After commissioning the equipment, a number of operational problems were encountered. These were resolved once their causes were clearly identified and adequately addressed. Work completed included installing an adequate cooling system for the VFD unit and replacing an air-release valve in place of an outdated siphon breaker that continually adversely affected water flow. Benefits realized from the new technology have included a reduction in power use, cost of labor and maintenance, and a dramatic improvement in the district's ability to control in-stream water flow through the automatic control of motor and pump performance

Drainwater reuse for the Sutter Basin
No full textPresented at Irrigation district sustainability - strategies to meet the challenges: USCID irrigation district specialty conference held on June 3-6, 2009 in Reno, Nevada.Farmers in the Sutter Basin, in the Sacramento Valley of California, do not have sufficient irrigation supply to meet crop needs during peak irrigation demand and during years with surface water allocation restrictions. To help meet these needs, Reclamation District 1500 examined the viability of expanding its existing drainwater reuse system. Drought and reduced surface water allocations, which are partly attributed to ever-more-stringent environmental concerns and regulations, have markedly increased the hard-to-quantify socioeconomic value of a reliable water supply. Basin farmers have a sense of urgency to establish a supplemental irrigation supply. Expanding the drainwater reuse system for a supplemental irrigation supply will increase water delivery reliability in the Sutter Basin. Approximately 68,000 irrigated acres and over 500 miles of surface drainage channels encompass the study area, where rice is the predominate crop. This study highlights the need to identify supplemental irrigation sources in the absence of extensive master planning data. This study relied on stakeholder input to identify operational and management constraints and to develop specific evaluation criteria. Drainwater availability was inversely proportional to downstream irrigation demand in the Sutter Basin, which required special engineering consideration. The study found that drainwater quality concerns can be mitigated by (a) reusing drainwater upstream of the connate water zone, (b) blending drainwater with surface diversion water, and (c) implementing water quality monitoring program tailored to the recommended alternative. Two service-area-scale drainwater reuse alternatives are recommended to collectively provide up to 20,000 acre-feet of supplemental irrigation supply annually. Project implementation would help offset surface diversion shortages and increase water delivery reliability in the Sutter Basin
Sutter Mutual Water Company
No full textPresented at the 2002 USCID/EWRI conference, Energy, climate, environment and water - issues and opportunities for irrigation and drainage on July 9-12 in San Luis Obispo, California.In 1999 Sutter Mutual Water Company (SMWC) began an effort to modernize its water-distribution system in an attempt to reduce operation and maintenance costs and conserve water and power resources. The primary technical support was provided by professionals from the Irrigation Training and Research Center (ITRC), California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly), San Luis Obispo. Additional technical expertise was provided by Concepts in Controls of Visalia, California and Wilson Pumps of Woodland, California. This modernization project was partially funded by the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), Mid-Pacific Region, Northern Area Office, through a Field Services Program Grant and technical support agreement with the ITRC. The effort encompassed two projects within the company's service area located within the boundaries of California's largest reclamation district, Reclamation District 1500. The projects were (1) the automation of the pumping plant at Portuguese Bend with a new Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) pump and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system and (2) the demonstration of new SCADA-compatible electronic flow measurement technologies for both canals and pipelines. The anticipated, and ultimately realized, benefits of the modernization effort was a savings to the company due to a reduction in the amount of water diverted, power consumed and number of personnel required to operate and maintain its system
