Quick Reference Guide Overview
Board of Directors
Established in 1887, the Turlock Irrigation District (TID) was the first irrigation district in the state. Today it is one of only four in California that also provides electric retail energy directly to homes, farms, and businesses. Organized under the Wright Act, the District operates under the provisions of the California Water Code as a special district. TID is governed by a five-member, locally-elected Board of Directors.

TID delivers irrigation water through over 250 miles of a gravity-fed canal system that irrigates approximately 150,000 acres of farmland. In addition, TID owns and operates an integrated and diverse electric generation, transmission and distribution system that provides power to a population of 240,000 within a 662 square-mile area. TID is one of eight Balancing Authorities in California and operates independently within the Western United States power grid. A Balancing Authority performs a balancing function in which customers’ usage and resources are matched on a moment-by-moment basis.
