XNApp; That has been up for discussion in <br /> o*seol/Ion with a preliminary report on the Neosho) basin in <br /> the east part of the state. The conclusion •reached as to <br /> that was that if the entire control anticipated by the Depart. <br /> teat of Agriculture were put into effect it might result in <br /> a slightly decreased runoff from small rotos, that is, sums <br /> from a half-Mob to an inch, probably; that it would have a. <br /> etfeett upon runoff from larger rains. <br /> NOW, as to the Arkansas basin which has mull more <br /> runoff than the genshe.1 the Arkansas River gets no runoff <br /> anyhow from the small rains mash as these land-use prelate** <br /> would cozitrol. So that as far as water supplies ooneideredd <br /> by this Coaaiuten, I (Watt see that those preetieea will <br /> afteat water supplies such as we deal with. <br /> iR. +ATTIRSON t Do you feel, George, that their <br /> soil erosion prevention work in the aid of flood control will <br /> have any material effect. on the rates of siltation of Caddoa <br /> Reservoir, such as we have tried to estimate? <br /> KR. XNApyt I believe if this practice was put into <br /> effect over the basin it would have the effect of reducing <br /> loss of soil by erosion and thus reduce the rate of aoeuaula.M <br />
