This will be accomplished <br />through accelerated technical and financial assistance for <br />the installation of on -farm land treatment measures. The <br />measures are to reduce contaminants in the groundwater, <br />surface water, and the Arkansas River to an acceptable level <br />and protect the soil resource base from excessive irrigation <br />induced erosion. <br />Responsible Agency: <br />USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service <br />Title of Proposed Action: <br />Draft PL 83 -566 Watershed Plan - Environmental Assessment <br />Limestone Graveyard Creeks Watershed Project <br />Location: <br />Bent and Prowers Counties, Colorado <br />For Further Information Contact: <br />Duane L.
