applied to improvements on CRSP participating projects or other <br />Reclamation projects, e.g., lining of canals, diversion structure <br />improvements, efficiency improvements on pumping plants, or the <br />construction of fish passage structures or temperature control structures. <br />RIP costs <br />4. Stream Gaging <br />• Installation and operation of gages necessary for the operation of CRSP Units. <br />For example, expand USGS gaging sites and the SNOTEL network. <br />5. Consumptive Use and Quality of Water <br />• Studies necessary and incident to more efficient present and future operation of <br />the CRSP system. <br />For example, Consumptive Uses and Losses studies, Quality of Water <br />Studies, CRSS model development, climate change modeling, and <br />reservoir water quality modeling and basin studies. <br />6. Salinity — Upper Colorado River Basin <br />• Provides new, cost - effective opportunities to control salinity in the basin. <br />Global Climate Change <br />• Provides for nationwide data collection and monitoring activities; relevant <br />research; and activities to increase the efficiency of the use of water in the United <br />States. <br />• Reclamation also has a responsibility to take a lead role in assessing risks to the <br />water resources of the United State and to develop strategies to mitigate impacts <br />and ensure long -term water resources management. <br />18 <br />
