PR.OJECTED 1983 ACTIVITIES <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />N USDA will continue to be involved with many of the same activities in 1983 as <br />o in previous years; however, some new and expanded initiatives will be <br />~ undertaken. <br />c.n <br /> <br />Continued activities will include a limited amount of salinity control <br />planning in two irrigation salt source areas. Continued followup in the <br />Price-San Rafael CUT) study and completion of the Mancos Valley CCO) study is <br />scheduled. Implementation of the Wellton-Mohawk Title I project and the <br />Grand-Valley and Uinta Basin Title II projects will be continued at <br />approximately the same level of intensity. Extension education support will <br />also be cont1nued. <br /> <br />Expanded initiatives include the broadened scope of salinity control research <br />through the ARS. This activity is very important for the continued <br />development and advancement of new irrigation water management and salinity <br />control technology. <br /> <br />Implementation of a long term monitoring and evaluation plan will be <br />undertaken in 1983. The monitoring plans, staff and funding needs, as well as <br />equipment needs have been developed and partially fundad. SCS proposes to <br />initiate this monitoring effort during the 1983 irrigation season. The entire <br />monitoring program is scheduled to be fully implemented by 1985. <br /> <br />Legislative activities will also be prompting some new USDA CRBSCP <br />initiatives. In addition, specific program rules and regulations for <br />implementing the program will be developed following legislation. <br /> <br />27 <br /> <br />1_: ",,_, <br /> <br />.i".~ <br />'" .~,.o;;.J>. ..... _= <br />
