Salt Cedar Bill Approved By House Last Week
The House passed a bill introduced by Rep. Joe Pool of Texas and Rep. Thomas Morris with Joseph Montoya of New Mexico for a federal program to eradicate 70 000 acres of salt cedar in the Pecos River Basin. The interstate effort aims to recover 140 000 to 150 000 acre feet of water annually, mostly benefiting Texas where irrigation declines have been caused by salt cedar. Pool praised the Pecos River Commission which regulates water use across states and noted a cooperative spirit between Texas and New Mexico under Pecos River agreements.
