ALL WATER USERS Of Willow and Rhea Creeks and Tributaries With extended dry season, we have an extreme stock water shortage on all reaches of the streams. Many users can not utilize their fall pastures without wa ter in the creek. As these are stock wa ter decreed streams and irrigation season ends on the majority by September 1, and October 1 on most of the balance, this should remove all questions as to the preference for stock water. I would like users' cooperation on dis continuance of all irrigation for the sea son, so that the small amount of water in the creeks can make its way down stream. Much stock is coming in early off fall ranges, and presents a, drastic need for the limited water supply. If any questions arise, I may be con tacted at Pendleton 276-7111. Jerry Haines, water master, or Boyd Hadden, assistant, will be contacting individuals in the next few days. Thanks for all co operation. JERRY F.
