Butte Creek Drainage District
The District was established on November 27, 1920. The district was originally formed to deepen, enlarge, or clean out the channel of Butte Creek and other channels necessary to provide adequate drainage of irrigation and stormwater flows for the properties within its boundaries. The District is responsible for maintenance of the Smith Bridge and the Moulton Cut in the Butte Sink area to provide water to waterfowl hunters in exchange for accepting drainage water. The District provides services to approximately 276 agricultural and 45 single-family residential parcels for a total of approximately 47,852 acres.
