" <br /> <br />3. Implementation of non-point source management plans developed by the states and <br />approved by EPA. <br /> <br />Item 1 of the plan of implementation listed above is to be implemented by federal agencies <br />in conjunction with state, local and private participants. The Forum works jointly with federal <br />agencies on developing the units and measures to be implemented. The Forum also urges <br />Congress to ensure that the funds necessary to successfully implement all phases of this plan of <br />implementation are appropriated as needed. Items 2 and 3 above are primarily implemented by <br />each of the Basin states. <br /> <br />The major components of this Review's plan of implementation are the federal programs. <br />Table 1 summarizes the salinity control achieved by the federal participants under the Program's <br />original authorities and the salinity control measures which must be implemented in order to meet <br />the goal of approximately 1.48 million tons of salt-load reduction annually by 2015. These federal <br />programs are described in detail in Chapter 4 of this Review. <br /> <br />vi <br />
