Illustration 4.3.5B CHAP. 4.3 PROCEDURE GENERAL .1 A program to bring about the expected land use will be initiated during the land .2 In public land areas which are being opened for irrigation settlement, the Bureau PUBLIC has the responsibility of establishing the size and laying out each farm unit. This LANDS is a prerequisite to the development of the final plans for the irrigation distribution system. The accomplishment of this phase of project development will be done in accordance with the following criteria: A. Where a farm unit consists exclusively of one class of land the size of the units will, sofar as practicable and consistent with topographic and other physical conditions, closely approximate the optimum sizes determined for the land class. B. Where a farm unit consists of a combination of land classes, the Class 1 equivalent of the several land classes should be determined. To the extent possible, some of the better-than-average land will be included with the lower class land in the farm unit. C. In an irrigation block where topographic conditions or other physical limitations make it impracticable to establish farm units fitting exactly the optimum sizes, a smaller number of units of slightly larger than the optimum sizes should be established rather than a larger number of smaller units. Instructions in the preparation of farm unit plats are contained in Part 6, Land .1 5.1.1 CHAP. 5.1 SCOPE AND AUTHORITY Land development work of the Bureau comprises those activities conducted .2 Authority for the establishment and operation of development farms is contained in the Act of June 17, 1902 and acts amendatory thereof and supplementary thereto, particularly Section 46 of the Act of May 25, 1926. Section 4 of the Columbia Basin Project Act of March 10, 1943 provides authority for the establishment of such farms on that project. The Act of December 22, 1944 and the "Missouri River Basin" items of subsequent appropriation acts provide authority for the establishment of development farms on the Missouri River Basin Project. .3 Land development work shall, wherever possible, be carried out through cooperation with other agencies, including Western Land Grant colleges and universities (see Chapter 1.2 of this Volume).
