House of Representatives <br />1510 Longworth House Office Building <br />Washington, D.C. 20515 <br /> <br />Dear Congressman Brown: <br /> <br />It Is our understandIng that the 99th Congress, First Session wll I be <br />schedulIng a hearing on HR 3547, the Cache la Poudre River WIld and Scenic <br />Designation Bill. We support the efforts of those who want to preserve the <br />environmental values and those who want to develop the potential water sites <br />at reaching compromise language which now Is your proposed Bill. <br /> <br />This letter serves as an endorsement of HR 3547, and we hope that this can <br />be entered Into the record during the hearings. We feel that the compromise <br />proposal finally reached after years of negotiation Is the best solution to <br />the controversy which has surrounded your attempts at desIgnation. The <br />proposed Bill Is a true compromise In that It saves 75 of the rIver's R3 <br />miles for designation while leaving open two potential water storage sites, <br />Including those sites necessary for the prospective Cache la Poudre <br />Project. Both sides should be commended for their perseverance in reaching <br />thIs compromIse. <br /> <br />It Is the Crty of Greeley's Intent, then, to endorse this Cache la Poudre <br />RIver Wild and Scenic Bill which you have proposed. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />Mike Lehan <br />Mayor <br /> <br />ML/ld <br />
