<br />o <br />en <br />(',' <br />C) <br /> <br />to better understand the soi1-water-plant relationships to <br />salinity and to further refine and improve irrigation water <br /> <br />management techniques and salinity control technologies. An <br /> <br />expanded and coordinated salinity control research program <br /> <br />will not only benefit the Colorado River Basin, but other <br />regions with salinity problems as well. <br />The Advisory Council has also been informed of the <br />Regional Research Project being conducted by the Western <br />states Agricultural Experiment Station in conjunction with <br />the Cooperative State Research Service (CSRS). This project <br /> <br />is aimed at better understanding the physical and chemical <br /> <br />factors that affect the salinity of soils. <br /> <br />The Council <br /> <br />supports continued state level research efforts and strongly <br /> <br />recommends increased funding levels for the salinity related <br /> <br />research activities of ARS and CSRS. <br /> <br />Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) <br />The Council requests that EPA support the Forum spon- <br />sored legislation to amend the Colorado River Basin Salinity <br />Control Act. As part of the efforts to continue maintenance <br /> <br />of the numeric criteria in the lower mainstem, the amendments <br /> <br />include components which have previously been endorsed by <br /> <br />EPA, (such as clarifying USDA's role regarding on farm salini- <br /> <br />ty control programs, addressing wildlife values associated <br /> <br />with salinity control, developing a salinity control program <br /> <br />for public lands in the basin, and implementation of a <br /> <br />program to seek beneficial uses of saline waters). <br /> <br />-20- <br /> <br />,,: <br /> <br />jL,~ <br />
