<br /><:) <br />OJ <br />o all Department of the Intel'ior requests fo!' legislative <br />CJl <br />changes have been accommodated by the states, the Advisory <br /> <br />Council strongly encourages the Department of the Interior to <br /> <br />aggressively suppo!'t the p!'ompt enactment of the legislation. <br /> <br />The Council also l'ecommends that Inte!'io!' request funds suf- <br /> <br />ficient to move the Colo!'ado salinity prog!'am, so that water <br /> <br />quality commitments can be honored. <br /> <br />Department of the Inte!'ior <br />Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) <br /> <br />Colorado River Basin Salinity Cont!'ol P!'ogram <br /> <br /> <br />Grand Valley Unit, Colorado - The lining of the Govern- <br /> <br /> <br />ment Highline Canal Stage One and the associated laterals <br /> <br />were complete prior to the 1983 ir!'igation season, approxi- <br /> <br />mately two years ahead of the scheduled completion date. <br /> <br />Monitoring continues on the stage One laterals for opera- <br /> <br />tional problems. The moss and debris removal structure was <br /> <br />installed in 1983, approximately one yea!' ahead of schedule. <br /> <br />Evaluation of the Stage One area has shown a reduction in <br /> <br />salt load, over the period 1979-1983, of 15,600 tons of which <br /> <br />14,200 tons was related to the canal and lateral lining and <br /> <br />1,300 tons to the USDA on farm program in the Stage One area. <br /> <br />The full impact of Reclamation's Stage I measures is <br /> <br />estimated to reduce the salt load by 23,000 tons per year. <br />The recommended plan by Reclamation for the remainder of <br /> <br />the Grand Valley Unit has been identified in the Stage Two <br />draft supplement to the Definite Plan Report. This plan <br />would reduce salt load at Imperial Dam by 141,000 tons per <br /> <br />-5- <br /> <br />'. <br />
