The practice of blending or diluting excessively saline waters with <br />good quality water supplies should only be undertaken after consideration is <br />given to how il affects the volume of consumable water in the total supply and <br />overall beneficial use. <br /> <br />NOTES <br /> <br />lSalinity, a term refemng to the total content of soluble inorganic constituents in the <br />water. Ls generally Iimiling m this regard, but cenain individual planHoxic constituents, <br />such as boron, may be in special cases. The tenn salinity Mil be used herein in a general <br />sense [0 mean the presence of Iota I di.s.solved sailS and/or individual toxic c:onstitUCOlS,likc <br />boron. <br /> <br />REFERENCES <br /> <br />Bernstein, L., 1975.
