<br /> <br />t.I.) <br />0') <br />to <br />,",,1 <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />PROJECT COORDINATION AND OVERSIGHT <br /> <br />This project was initiated and implemented as a result of <br />the consensus of various state and federal agencies relating <br />to the need to address salinity control on rangelands within <br />the Colorado River Basin. One of the key elements in the <br />organization of this project was the isolation of the <br />primary team members in the Utah State Department of <br />Agriculture offices in Salt Lake City, Utah. The team <br />members were then able to concentrate on the project work <br />without major interruption of ordinary office duties. The <br />efficient work environment resulted in the Phase I work <br />being accomplished in two months instead of the planned <br />three and the extra work month allowed for the evaluation of <br />eight watersheds where seven had been planned. <br /> <br />A Steering Committee was organized to oversee the progress <br />of project. It consisted of representatives from the <br />following organizations: <br /> <br />Colorado River Basin Salinity Forum <br />US Department of Agriculture, Soil conservation Service <br />US Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation <br />US Department of Interior, Bureau of Land Management <br />US Department of Interior, Geological survey <br />US Environmental Protection Agency <br />state of Utah, Department of Agriculture <br />State of Utah, Department of Health <br />Division of Environmental Health <br />State of Utah, Department of Natural Resources <br />Division of Natural Resources <br />Division of Water Resources <br /> <br />PROJECT COSTS <br /> <br />Project costs were divided among the four major <br />participants: <br />Bureau of Reclamation ---------- $100,000 <br />Soil Conservation Service ------~$ 45,000 <br />Bureau of Land Management -------$ 52,500 <br />Utah Department of Agriculture --$ 29,500 <br />TOTAL $227,000 <br /> <br />These costs can be viewed in terms of the cost to implement <br />the Sand Wash Watershed project of approximately $471,500 <br />(USDA, SCS, 1986). The products of the project were Report <br />of the Watershed Resource Inventory of the Colorado River <br />Basin in Utah and the six detailed Phase II reports of <br />resource evaluations for the eight targeted watersheds (four <br />of the watersheds were evaluated in two pairs due to <br />similarities). The estimated cost of the Phase I Colorado <br />
