The main goals of the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) within the subdistricts are (\cite{sbd12013a}):
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
    \item Enroll 40,000 acres of cropland.
    \item Reduce irrigated water use by 60,060 acre-feet per year.
    \item Reduce annual fertilizer and pesticide application from enrolled acres by approximately 3,650 tons per year.
    \item Restore and enhance a minimum of 750 acres of degraded temporary and permanent wetlands.
    \item Increase streamflows in streams associated with the watershed within the project area.
    \item Reduce energy consumption over the 15-year term of the CREP contract's two hundred million kW-hours.
    \item Reduce the percentage of groundwater test wells containing nitrogen (NO\textsubscript{3}) levels above EPA standards.
    \item Enable recovery of the groundwater levels in the unconfined aquifer of the closed basin by reducing consumptive withdrawals.
\end{enumerate}
