Dear Benchland Water District Customer,
Due to extremely low snowpack, ongoing drought conditions, and a significant reduction in the water allocation available to our District, mandatory water conservation measures are required for the remainder of the 2026 irrigation season.
ALL SECONDARY WATER HAS BEEN TURNED ON AS OF 4/28/2026. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR RESTRICTIONS.
PLEASE NOTE: WATER IS OFF IN SOME NEIGHBORHOODS AROUND MAIN ST. DUE TO CONSTRUCTION. WE HOPE TO HAVE THAT BACK ON IN 1–2 WEEKS.
Everything you need to feel prepared for the 2026 irrigation season, all in one place.
A public hearing to adopt the District Budget is held annually on the third Thursday in December at 7:30 p.m. at the District Office, 485 E Shepard Lane in Kaysville, and all residents and property owners within District boundaries are encouraged to attend.
Please note:
1
APR
Please ensure your irrigation system is turned OFF. As mainlines are charged for the new water season, it is your responsibility to prevent potential water damage to your property.
15
APR
Water service will be available to all users by this date. If you do not have water at your connection, please contact our office.
Important: Make sure all valves are closed to prevent damage or flooding.
15
SEP
Pressure irrigation mainlines will begin draining for the season. After this occurs, drain your system promptly to prevent frost damage.
Everyone benefits when we use water responsibly. Simple changes in how and when you water can help protect supply, reduce waste, and keep the system running smoothly for the entire community.
Do not water sidewalks, driveways, or roadways. Watering only where it is needed helps prevent waste and keeps usage efficient.
Do not water between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Watering during cooler hours reduces evaporation and ensures more water reaches your landscape.
Apply only the amount of water your landscape requires. Using water wisely helps prevent overuse and supports long-term conservation.
Everything is explained simply so you can move forward with confidence
Season start dates vary each year based on supply conditions.
APRIL 15 – DISTRICT LINES WILL BE CHARGED AND SERVICE AVAILABLE TO USERS.
Billing for the irrigation season is mailed during the first week of February. Each customer is billed an annual Water Use Charge for the irrigation season that follows in that calendar year.
Initial billing after contracting for service will be issued within thirty (30) days. Subsequent billings are issued at thirty (30) day intervals until the balance is paid in full.
Benchland Water District accepts online credit card payments for Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. No additional fees apply.

THE IRRIGATION WATER IS NOT TREATED FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION!
Great care must be taken as follows:
DOUBLE CONNECTIONS
Benchland Water District provides pressurized irrigation water to users within the boundaries of the District. For specific availability of service, telephone (801) 451-2105. The District works to have 24 hour per day availability of irrigation water throughout the service season. Repairs resulting from broken lines and the installation of new services do, on occasion, cause temporary interruption of service.
The District delivers irrigation water to the property users. The water, its management and service requirements, become the responsibility of the user at point of delivery.
THE SERVICE VALVE INSTALLED BY THE DISTRICT BETWEEN CURB AND SIDEWALK OR AT THE PROPERTY’S EDGE IS FOR DISTRICT USE. THE WATER USER MUST CONTROL HIS OR HER DELIVERY SYSTEM BEYOND THE DISTRICT VALVE. DO NOT USE THIS VALVE IN ANY WAY WITHOUT CONSENT FROM THE DISTRICT OFFICE: PHONE: (801) 451-2105
Lines will begin to be pressurized with water beginning 01 April of each service year. Turn your valves off prior to that time to prevent water from running on your property without your supervision. Pressure irrigation lines will be drained for the season beginning 15 October. Drain your own system after the main lines have been drained to insure that frost damage does not occur in your system.
WATER USE
Each water user contracts with the District for a full water right, allowing the user reasonable use of water for irrigation throughout the season. Users and potential users must understand that irrigation water is not an unlimited resource. “USE THE WATER YOU NEED, AND NEED THE WATER YOU USE.” Service will be terminated to any user willfully wasting this valuable resource.
PAYMENT FOR SERVICE
Prompt payment of your annual service charge is essential to maintaining the use of your water. Please include your account number on the check you remit in payment to insure proper credit to your account.
NON-PAYMENT OF YOUR ANNUAL USE CHARGE OR THE ONE-TIME CONTRACT CHARGE SHALL RESULT IN TERMINATION OF SERVICE.
OCTOBER 15 — SERVICE SEASON WILL CLOSE AND DRAINING OF THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN.
OCTOBER 25 — OPEN YOUR SYSTEM AND INSURE THAT ALL OF YOUR SYSTEM IS DRAINED FOR THE WINTER.
Drought conditions may limit the supply of irrigation water available.
Your use of water conservation practices will extend the availability of our irrigation supply.
During drought conditions be alert to all notices of restriction of use or limitation of service.
