What are the intended outcomes of the continuous improvement program?
Quantitative goals for nitrogen and phosphorus loss reductions will be established and performance/attainment will be estimated based on CIP practice/system implementation, using accepted, conservative effectiveness estimates. It is anticipated that goals will be for 40% reductions in nitrogen and phosphorus below the conservation baseline level, but this goal could be revised based on an analysis of the beta test results that will estimate the economic feasibility of nutrient reductions.
