'. <br /> <br />)0- <br /> <br />The decision to implement a weather modification program for Santa <br />Barbara County was made by the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors <br />in, December 1977. Ultimately NAIVC was selected to conduct the program <br />and seeding \vas begun in early January. Cloud seeding continued into <br />February at which point seed.ing was suspended due to a saturated water- <br />shed and the filling (and spilling) of Cachuma Lake. Rainfall conti.nued <br />at frequent intervals thr0ughout the remainder of February and through <br />March which negated the need. for additional seeding. In April the con- <br />tract was terminated since it was evident that further seeding would not <br />be required. <br /> <br />Details of the project design, a swnmary of operations, and a pre- <br />liminary evaluation of the results of the program are presented in the <br />s~:tions that follow. <br /> <br />1-2 <br /> <br />I <br />,I <br />~ <br />
