Preliminary environmental information and cumulative impacts for the
16 original units in Title II of the Colorado River Basin Salinity
Control Act have been presented in a final environmental statement on
the Colorado River Water Quality Improvement Program (FES 77-15). The
statement was prepared by the Bureau of Reclamation, Department of the
Interior, and the Soil Conservation Service, Department of Agriculture,
and was filed with the Council on Environmental Quality on May 16, 1977.
