Central Oregon Irrigation District is a utilities organization that operates an irrigation district in Central Oregon, overseeing the management and distribution of water for agricultural use. The district works with partners on water-management initiatives to support irrigation needs in the region. In 2026 it expanded its asset base by purchasing property in Redmond, Washington, using proceeds from a property sale, a purchase that is reported to have no impact on patron rates. The district has engaged in conservation-focused and collaborative efforts, including a campaign to reduce water use in 2023 and a Deschutes River Conservancy partnership that supported a water-bank pilot program. It participates in infrastructure modernization activities, such as sourcing materials for projects that upgrade its water-delivery systems.
