The Metropolitan Water District of Southern <br />California wishes to commend the Colorado River Basin Salinity <br />Control Forum on its continuing efforts regarding salinity <br />control. ,The Forum's efforts in maintaining interstate <br />cooperation and support for the program, and its overall <br />coordination and ongoing monitoring 'of salinity Changes and <br />program effectiveness a,re also to be commended. <br /> <br />The District is pleased to see that mOre attention <br />is being given to control of the largest man-made source, <br />irrigated agriculture. The on-farm salinity control measures <br />appear to be one of ,the most cost-'effective'means of maintaining <br />the numeric criteria. <br /> <br />The Metropolitan Water District appreciates this <br />opportunity to comment on the Forum's 1984 Review report. <br />We endorse the report and its recommendations for the salinity <br />standards and the plan of implementation, and we urge their <br />adoption by each of .the concerned states. <br /> <br /> <br />Jj;;;;/y, ourn . <br />~~tJ.,~~ff~Y <br />Carl B~~, V <br />.
