<br />l\:) Reclamation selected a preferred plan for the <br />~ <br />00 Dirty Devil River unit in 1985. The plan is to inject saline <br />00 <br />water from the Hanksville South Salt Wash and Emery South <br />Salt Wash into injection wells about 3500 feet deep. <br />A decision was made, following consultation with the <br />Forum, to defer further investigation of the Glenwood- <br />Dotsero Springs Unit. A draft planning report was sent to <br />Washington on September 30, 1985. <br />In the Saline Water Use and Disposal Opportunities Unit, <br />a letter of agreement was completed for cost-sharing field <br /> <br />investigations of saline. water use equipment at the Southern <br /> <br /> <br />California Edison Company's Etiwanda Power plant near <br /> <br /> <br />Ontario, California. Equipment design and an operational <br /> <br />plan for installation and operation of the verification <br /> <br /> <br />facilities were completed in FY 1985 and installation is <br /> <br />underway. <br />The contract study of the use of saline water in the Jim <br /> <br />Bridger power plant found that when the costs of well <br /> <br />collection features and pipelines costs are included, the <br />total cost-effectiveness estimates for using Big Sandy River <br />flows were not competitive with other salinity control units <br />at this time. A "Final Report on the Jim Bridger Power <br />Plant" was given wide distribution. <br /> <br />In March 1985, Reclamation and Western Resource <br /> <br />Transport, Inc. signed Modificatipn No. 2 to a Cooperative <br /> <br /> <br />Agreement betweeen the two parties. This agreement spells <br /> <br />-12- <br />
