Description An accounting of new water supply delivered to Eastern Washington as part of the Columbia River Program created under Chapter 90.90 RCW

As of January 1, 2015, the Department of Ecology‘s Office of Columbia River(OCR)has developed 375,815 acre-feet of new water supply at a cost of around $175 million dollars. That pencils out to about $465 per acre foot, an incredible bargain in a market where water typically sells for well over $1,500 per acre-foot.
