BSTI'l"C" <br /> The CRWQIP (Colorado River Water Qua I i ty Improvement Program) emerged ;n <br /> the early 1970's after recogni tion of the Basinwide salinity probl em. <br /> Salinity affects more than 12 million municipal, agr icu' tura 1, and in- <br /> dustrial water users in the lower basin as well as in the Republic of <br /> Mexico. The river carries about 9 mill ion tons of sal t annually past <br /> Hoover Dam. <br /> Thi s sal t load causes millions of dolle.rs in damages and the damages are <br /> projected to increase unless the CRWQ1P is implemented. <br /> This s ta tus report assesses the magni tude of the salinity problem in the <br /> Basin. reviews the major activi ties since 1974. outlines the s ta tu~ of <br /> each unit, and reviews future program s tra tegy. <br />" I<E'" IIOROS "NO COCUMENT A""LySIS <br />" DESCFlIPTORS..
