The states also prepared econo- <br />mi c impact anal ysi s for the 1 ands restored to i rri gated producti on due to <br />interstate water transfer projections. The results of these assessments are <br />arrayed in Chapter Six of the General Contractor's Final Report of March <br />1982. <br /> <br />In addition to the Corps, the States, the Study Council and the FWS, the <br />Genera 1 Contractor wi shes to acknowl edge the si gnifi cant contri but ions of <br />several other individuals and/or organizations in facilitating the completion <br />of this study element. <br />
