Document Description
The Salton Sea Species Conservation Habitat Program is to develop and construct approximately 3,370 acres of shallow ponds, contained within low berms, on either side of the New River at elevations less than -228 feet mean sea level. The ponds would be supplied with a combination of brackish and saline water. This water would be pumped from the New River and Salton Sea, respectively, and blended to maintain an appropriate salinity range.
