Reclamation District #833
Reclamation District No. 833 (RD833) was initially formed in 1921 under the State Reclamation Act. The District provides flood control services to approximately 38,600 acres of agricultural and single-family residential parcel owners in the Biggs and Gridley area (Figure 9-1). While the District consists primarily of intensive agriculture in the form of rice farming, the District also includes all of the urbanized areas of Biggs and Gridley. Additionally, the District owns and operates a 720-acre property in the Butte Sink area located in Sutter County for drain-water management, duck hunting, and farming.
