<br />reg~rding the proposed program changes, results of program <br /> <br /><:) <br />OJ <br />c:.o <br />I-" <br /> <br />evaluation, and revisions to the implementation schedule for <br /> <br />salinity control. <br />Favorable hydrology. during the period 1983-87 temporarily <br /> <br />lowered salinity levels in the lower river. However, with below <br /> <br />normal flows since 1987 salinity levels are again increasing. In <br /> <br />addition, <br /> <br />inadequate funding levels, <br /> <br />particularly for the <br /> <br />Department of Agriculture, have resulted in delays in the <br />implementation of salinity control activities. These delays have <br />resulted in the need for additional control measures and funds to <br /> <br />assure that the numeric criteria for salinity will be maintained. <br /> <br />It is imperative that the federal agencies vigorously pursue <br /> <br /> <br />adequate funding to carry out the proposed salinity control <br /> <br /> <br />activities as set forth in the 1990 Review and the 1990 Joint <br /> <br />Evaluation Report. <br /> <br /> <br />In October 1967, the President signed Executive Order 12088 <br /> <br /> <br />which directs the head of each Executive agency to take all <br /> <br />necessary actions for the prevention, control and abatement of <br /> <br />environmental pollution with respect to federal facilities and <br /> <br />activities under the control of the agency. <br /> <br />This would include <br /> <br />directing the agency head to make strong recommendations to <br />Congress to appropriate sufficient funds for compliance with <br /> <br />approved pollution control standards. <br /> <br />In addition, the Order <br /> <br />provides for cooperation with state, interstate, and local-'agencies <br /> <br />in the prevention, control, and abatement of environmental <br /> <br />degredation. <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />I <br />;,~ <br />
