<br />~ <br />~ <br />C..I1 <br />o <br /> <br />In cooperation with the Basin states, EPA has developed <br /> <br />regional Agriculture Nonpoint Source Control Strategies. <br /> <br />Components of the strategies range from the identification <br /> <br />of priority problem watersheds to the development of a <br /> <br />reporting system to monitor progress on implementation. <br /> <br />Each state is in the process of developing its own Agri- <br /> <br />cultural Nonpoint Source control strategies. Strategies <br /> <br />should expedite the addressing of salinity problems associ- <br /> <br />ated with irrigated agriculture in the Basin. <br /> <br />Region VIII has adopted an "Energy Policy Statement" <br /> <br />which includes the following: <br /> <br />"The Region will strongly encourage that, when <br />possible, energy development facilities utilize <br />poorer quality water not suitable for domestic, <br />municipal, or agricultural purposes as opposed to <br />higher quality water. An example would be the use <br />of high saline water for energy development/conver- <br />sion activities." <br /> <br />by the Forum. <br /> <br />-22- <br />
