The problem isn't the irrigation heads and the problem isn't the filter, the problem is the amount of sediment that seems to be in the irrigation water.

The utility flushing the lines might make a difference but Sanibel is in CDD9 while the flushing is only planned for districts 5-8.
On April 11, 2022, the NSCUDD Board approved the Additional Services Agreement with Jacobs for the development of an unidirectional flushing (UDF) plan for VWCA and SWCA.

NSCUDD is evaluating what rates are needed to cover future operations in the District 9-11 areas. I would expect that flushing in District 9 will be discussed at a future board meeting.
