<br />Unknown Springs <br /> <br />It is estimated that 17,000 tons of salt per year enter the surface <br /> <br />water from this area. The flow is anticipated to be 1 cfs, with TDS <br /> <br />concentrations in the 30,000 to 40,000 mg/L range. We anticipate <br /> <br />NaCI to be the prominent salt in this water, indicating groundwater. <br /> <br />Control alternatives would be very similar to those for South Salt <br /> <br />Wash. Refer to the attached map for general facilitiy locations. <br /> <br />Fremont River <br /> <br />Initial study of the Fremont River showed no obvious concentrated <br /> <br />sources of controllable salt. The Caineville and Hanksville irriga- <br /> <br />tion systems may have some potential for improvement, yielding salin- <br /> <br />ity reduction. Further study may identify controllable sources. <br /> <br />Additional alternative plans for reducing salt loading will be developed <br /> <br />that will include but not be limited to: collection and disposal, irriga- <br /> <br />tion system improvement, industrial use, withdrawal of salt-contributing <br /> <br />agricultural land, desalting, selective land drainage, canal lining, and <br /> <br />winter stock water pipeline. <br /> <br />002485 <br /> <br />(9) <br />
