TRANSMITTAL LETTERS

Section 303 of the Clean Water Act requires that at least once every three years the states of
the Colorado River Basin review water quality standards relating to the salinity ofthe waters of the
Colorado River. The states collectively initiate this review under the auspices of the Colorado River
Basin Salinity Control Forum and prepare a report and, after holding public meetings, prepare a
supplemental report.

Upon the Forum's adoption ofthese two reports, they are transmitted to the individual states
for their own independent action. The following is an example copy of the transmittal letter to the
Governor ofthe State of Arizona. Following this letter is a listing of the Governors in each of the
other six Colorado River Basin states who will receive identical letters.
