This 1982 Annual Report on the Colorado River Basin Salinity Control <br />Program (CRBSCP) has been prepared to explain the progress, the activities, <br />and the salinity control accomplishments achieved by the U.S. Department'of <br />Agriculture (USDA) program. USDA has continued to maintain reasonable <br />progress with implementation of onfarm irrigation improvement and salinity <br />control under authority of existing programs.
