Such applications may consist of projects to reduce salinity contributions originating from saline springs, leaking wells, irrigation sources, municipal and industrial sources, erosion of public and private land, or other sources.Only those irrigation-related projects that will reduce salt from delivery systems will be considered, e.g., canals, ditches, or laterals. Joint or integrated project applications that include costs and tons of salt from on-farm application systems will not be considered. Such projects should be referred to the USDA-NRCS Environmental Quality Incentives Program.
