<br />o <br />o <br />....... <br />I-' <br /> <br />when river flows return to normal, and satisfactory reservoir conditions prevail, concentrations will <br />then be at or below the criteria level. <br /> <br />The Forum has reviewed the impact of the program on projected salinities and finds that <br />through the year 2015 the plan will control salinity levels so that, with long-term mean water supply <br />conditions, salinity levels will be below the numeric criteria at the three stations, The salinity <br />standards provide protection from long-term increases in economic damage to downstream users, <br /> <br />Because of the long lead-time required to conduct salinity studies; complete environmental. <br />and feasibility reports; implement; and achieve full salinity reduction effects at the lower Colorado <br />River mainstem stations, continued funding is necessary for the recommended plan of <br />implementation to proceed as set forth in this Review, Non-federal funds, including Basin states' <br />basin funds, are available to cost-share with federal appropriations, and Basin irrigators stand ready <br />with cost-share dollars to install salinity reducing measures, <br /> <br />viii <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />
