<br />w <br />m <br />c.o <br />---l <br /> <br />Foreword <br /> <br />This Special Report presents innovative alternative plans for collecting, <br />treating, and transporting saline water for energy development use or dis- <br />posal in the Colorado River Basin. The concepts developed are considered <br />alternatives to conventional structural salinity control methods which <br />involve li~ed evaporation ponds and desalination plants. Heavy emphasis is <br />placed on Qeneficial use of saline water to mitigate the depletion impact <br />of its removal from the river system by structural control. Preliminary <br />costs are qeveloped for selected alternatives showing favorable cost- <br />effectiveness comparisons with current structural control measures. <br />The report addresses the potential cost savings for the most promising <br />alternatives of local saline water use by powerplants and by coal slurry <br />pipeline. <br /> <br />j <br /> <br />.","",'." <br /> <br />-il. ,. .-d.,o ii.~-, _z__~ <br /> <br />'I <br />g-~'-- .il <br />*..,'~ <br />
