Status Of On Farm Conservation Program By STEVE KNELL Oakdale Irrigation District Contrary to the articles that have been appearing in local papers, the OID’s On-Farm Conservation Program is alive and well, just on hold from a preliminary injunction issued by the court. That action was filed by the Oakdale Groundwater Alliance made up of Louis Brichetto, a large landowner of foothill properties outside OID’s irrigation service boundaries and with some small holdings in OID and Robert Frobose, a rice grower with land in OID but who resides in Modesto. The On-Farm Program, while on hold for OID, did not stop the owners of 59 parcels from performing as outlined in the contracts they executed in good faith with OID prior to the court’s issuance of the preliminary injunction.
