<br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />II <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />o <br />00 <br />o <br />en <br /> <br />1998 ANNUAL REPORT <br /> <br />request each year and pro-actively encourage Congress to appropriate the funds necessary to carry <br />out the salinity control activities set forth in the 1996 Review in a timely manner. <br /> <br />The Council is concerned that as the Forum begins the process of writing the 1999 Review, the 1996 <br />Review that has been submitted to the USEP A by the Basin states has not yet been acted on by the <br />USEP A If there are substantive issues delaying approval, the USEP A needs to make those known <br />immediately. The Council is also concerned about the lack of coordination and the inconsistent <br />approach taken by the USEP A and the U.S, Fish & Wildlife Service on Section 7 approval under the <br />Endangered Species Act. The Council understood this issue was resolved during approval of the <br />1993 Review, but now the two agencies appear uncertain again as they review the 1996 document. <br /> <br />Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) <br /> <br />On July 28,1995, Reclamation's Salinity Control Program was amended by the signing of Public <br /> <br /> <br />Law 104-20. Under this new authority, Reclamation no longer develops and implements its own <br /> <br /> <br />salinity control projects but requests proposals from other entities for salinity control projects. <br /> <br /> <br />Reclamation then evaluates proposals, selects appropriate projects, provides a portion of the funds <br /> <br /> <br />for implementation and provides technical support. The Council appreciates Reclamation's <br /> <br /> <br />willingness to include members ofthe Forum's Work Group on the committee that evaluates and <br /> <br /> <br />selects the projects to be funded and implemented. The Council feels this enhances the cooperative <br /> <br /> <br />relationship between Reclamation, the Forum and the Council. It is also noted that this relationship <br /> <br /> <br />is most appropriate as the Basin states up-front cost share (Basin Funds) 30% on these projects to <br /> <br /> <br />satisfy the Salinity Control Act's requirements that the Basin states cost share in the program. <br /> <br />COLORADO RIVER BASIN SALINITY CONTROL ADVISORY COUNCIL <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />~, ii <br />
