The Davis and Weber Counties Canal Company announced it will shut down its secondary water systems on September 15, 2026. In a notice posted to the Clinton City website, the company cited a hot, dry summer and below-normal snowpack and runoff as reasons for the shutdown.
The decision to shut down the systems on September 15, 2026, was made to preserve water for use in 2027, as the company noted that weather conditions for the following year are unknown. This action is similar to measures taken by many other entities in the region.
Some water will remain in the canal to meet planned turnout needs until October 1, 2026, or until an allotment is used.
