In some areas. no significant <br />interrelationships between projects exist. Where interrelation- <br />ships are significant, further investigations are required to <br />provide a basis for achieving hydrologic and economic coordination <br />prior to development. The project evaluation statements presented <br />in this volume set forth the investigations needed for those proj- <br />ects which the individual planning agencies have identified as . <br />warranting early consideration for development. They also present <br />information as to the effects of specific elements on water pollu- <br />tion control. fish and wildlife, recreation, mosquito control and. <br />mineral resources. Details of programs of agricultural research, <br />credit and education which should be undertaken in order to facil- <br />itate and assure the most .successful operation of the projects will <br />have to be worked.out.when project plans become more definite. <br /> <br />~~} <br /> <br />For the most part, elements of the plan were formulated <br />to provide solutions to specific problems in local areas with inci- <br />dental consideration of region-wide or national goals or problems. <br />A single project generally has limited effect on the economy of the <br />region or the Nation or on broad problems such as total need for <br />food and fiber, and.the maintenance of fish and wildlife resources. <br />However. in long-range planning on a tasin-wide basis. the cumula- <br />tive effects of numerous projects. on such factors may become <br />significant. The implications of the potential over-all development <br />proposed in the AWR plan should be examined as decisions are made <br />to proceed with individual elements of the plan. <br /> <br />Agency representatives of the Departments of the Army, <br />Agriculture, and Interior assembled this section. The data con- <br />tained herein are largely a re-editing and condensation of material <br />prepared by field representatives of the Federal agencies, and <br />State representatives during formulation of the A~ffi plan. Represen- <br />tatives of the Federal agencies and States which compose the AWRBIAC <br />participated in the development of the original evaluation state- <br />ments. . Leadership for that activity was furnished by the State <br />representatives. <br /> <br />iv <br />
