No 376298, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: The Department of Agriculture survey was made under the authority of Section 6, Public Law 566, 83d Congress, as amended, which authorizes the Department to cooperate with other federal, state, and local agencies in surveys and investigations of watersheds. In addition to the agricultural phases, this report deals with the impacts of the project on the national forests and the relationship of watershed conditions to the project. This report is also intended to aid the Bureau of Reclamation in developing a sound project plan and to provide information bearing on regular programs of this Department. The project will provide water for irrigating 3,900 acres of land. Adequate water will be supplied by the authorized Navajo Reservoir, a large storage project on the San Juan River. Water will be diverted from the river and conveyed to the project through a main canal, which will include several tunnels and large siphons.
