<br />ACKNOWLEDGMENTS <br /> <br />The design presented in this report was made possible through <br />funding provided by the Arizona Department of Water Resources; <br />Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region; Salt River Project; <br />and the Central Arizona Water Conservation District. <br /> <br />Mission: As the Nation's principal conservation agency, the <br />Department of the Interior has responsibility for most of our <br />nationally owned public lands and natural and cultural <br />resources. This includes fostering wise use of our land and <br />water resources, protecting our fish and wildlife, preserving <br />the environmental and cultural values of our national parks <br />and historical places, and providing for the enjoyment of life <br />through outdoor recreation. The Department assesses our <br />energy and mineral resources and works to assure that their <br />development is in the best interests of all our people. The <br />Department also promotes the goals of the Take Pride in <br />America campaign by encouraging stewardship and citizen <br />responsibility for the public lands and promoting citizen <br />participation in their care. The Department also has a major <br />responsibility for American Indian reservation communities <br />and for people who live in Island Territories under <br />U.S. Administration. <br /> <br />The information contained in this report regarding commercial <br />products or firms may not be used for advertising or promotional <br />purposes and is not to be construed as an endorsement of any <br />product or firm by the Bureau of Reclamation. <br /> <br />11 <br />
