DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

Natural Resources Conservation

Service

Notice of Proposed Implementation of

Phosphorous Index (PI) in the

Caribbean Area

AGENCY: Natural Resources

Conservation Service (NRCS), U.S.

Department of Agriculture.

ACTION: Notice of Availability of

proposed implementation of PI as a

working tool to assess and manage

phosphorous movement for review and

comment.

SUMMARY: It has been determined that

the Natural Resources Conservation

Service will adopt the implementation

of an assessment tool that may be used

by resource managers and land users to

assess the risk of phosphorous (P) losses

from a field. A work group made up by

Scientists from the Agricultural

Experiment Station of the University of

Puerto Rico and USDA–NRCS formed a

task to adapt and validate this

technology to our tropical environment.

The purpose of the PI is to aid anyone

environmentally involved in the

decision-making processes involved

planning resource conservation plans to

land application to animal wastes. The

risk of P losses is a function of transport

and sources characteristics.

DATES: Comments will be received on or

before July 23, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Inquire in writing to Juan A. Martinez,

State Director, Natural Resources

Conservation Service (NRCS), P.O. Box

364868 San Juan, PR 00946–4868;

Telephone number (787) 766–5206 Ext.

237; Fax number (787) 766–5987.

Copies of the Agronomy Technical Note

will be made available upon written

request to the address shown above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: High

phosphorous (P) concentrations found

in many surface waters throughout

Puerto Rico suggest that this may be the

leading cause observed eutrophication.

Because agricultural activities are one of

many non-point sources apparently

contributing to P loading, it is important

to implement agricultural nutrient

management plans. This must be done

judiciously because of the unique social

and economic conditions that prevail.

One component of said plan is the

assessment of P transport from soil to

water by the use of the Phosphorous

Index (PI). The PI is a site specific,

qualitative vulnerability assessment tool

used by the USDA–NRCS to determine

when manure utilization may be based

on a nitrogen or phosphorous-based

budget.

No administrative action on

implementing of the Agronomy

Technical Note will be taken until 30

days after the date of this publication in

the Federal Register.

Dated: May 17, 2001.
