Pumping is at cost to them, but irrigating they pay a whole $20 per acre foot from our local water district. The wells are used when they want more than allotted.
Many of these canals are quite old and while they do require some maintenance, the upfront costs of the dams, reservoirs , and canals are largely paid off. Those maintenance costs and any upgrades are paid by the district customers.
