Welcome to the Association of Gallatin
Agricultural Irrigators (AGAI) website. The mission of the association
is to be the guardian and advocate of the Gallatin River system and its
historically decreed water rights. Meetings are held the last Thursday of every month at The Garden Cafe in Manhattan at 11:00 a.m.
AGAI has established the
following goals:
-
AGAI will work to protect
historically decreed water rights.
-
AGAI will work to stay
current on local issues regarding development (e.g., ditch easements,
ponds and ground water development)
-
AGAI will work to
enhance/improve water conservation, "in stream" flows, and fish
habitat.
-
AGAI will work on stewardship
issues, weeds, erosion and water quality.
-
AGAI will identify and work
to resolve critical irrigation and canal issues.
