(1979) developed a uni-level linear program model of the <br />economic effect of water allocation changes and salinity resulting from energy <br />development in the Upper Colorado River Basin. Changes in salinity were <br />predicted by a mass balance approach; and least-cost.structural and nonstruc- <br />tural strategies to maintain desired salinity levels Were formulated. The <br />l'economicll optimal salinity control concentration levels at Lee's Ferry,;{ere <br />identified under the objective function of maximizing joint net returns of <br />agriculture and energy outputs. This approach solely utilized data from <br />projects of the WPRS portions of the Colorado Salinity Control Program. The <br />only on-farm structural alternative considered was aggregate sprinkler sys- <br />tems. <br /> <br />','.., <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />.,....' <br /> <br />".,'" <br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />., '.~ <br /> <br />. <br />
