<br />c ~' 15 3 6 <br /> <br />ABSTRACT OF THE PLAN: <br /> <br />This Watershed Plan-Environmental Assessment is to improve the surface and groundwater quality <br />by reducing the agricultural contribution of heavy metals, salts, sediment, and nitrate contamination. <br />This will be accomplished through accelerated technical and financial assistance for the installation of <br />on-farm land treatment measures. The measures are to reduce contaminants in the groundwater, <br />surface water, and the Arkansas River to an acceptable level and protect the soil resource base from <br />excessive irrigation induced erosion. <br /> <br />Responsible Agency: <br /> <br />USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service <br /> <br />Title of Proposed Action: <br /> <br />PL 83-566 Watershed Plan-Environmental Assessment <br />Highline Breaks Watershed Project <br /> <br />Location: <br /> <br />Otero and Pueblo Counties, Colorado <br /> <br />For Further Information Contact: <br /> <br />Stephen F.
