<br />289 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />'Am. HC KISIeK: I don't soo that thoro is any rOGl distinction boko,";" <br /> <br /> <br />the two. <br /> <br /> <br />Aill. CALDWELL: Yos, there is a very real distinction. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. E11ERSON: To my mind there is, a very definite distinction. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. MC KISICK: I can soe that loohng at it in 'one way, there might <br /> <br /> <br />bo a 'distinction. You might have an empty reservoir, <br /> <br /> <br />CHAlfllJAN ~IOOVER: In .,hich case, if you hilvoan emplOy reservoir" his <br /> <br /> <br />unimpaired right comes into acti.on ar;ainst you, .-ihereas if you put his <br /> <br /> <br />right in tho reservoir ho has ended his right ar;ainst you. <br /> <br /> <br />'IvlR. CALDWELL: We Ylill suppose aY) empty reservoir is thoro. What I <br /> <br /> <br />want in this article is somothinr; which Viill sa;)' that it is' incumbent upon <br /> <br /> <br />tho Lower Basin to use that storage, to store the wator Ol't of its apportion- <br /> <br /> <br />ment" and if it doesn't have any reason to use that capacity, it is no fault <br /> <br /> <br />of the Upper Basin. <br /> <br /> <br />liP.. 11\IERSON: I can soo now that if the reservoir .fith a capacity of <br /> <br /> <br />5,000,000 acre feet is provided and that' is once filled, that then this <br /> <br /> <br />changing condition will immediately take place and that it would not be, as <br /> <br /> <br />I vras' arguing before, a nec8f.?sity u,pon Oill' part of. continuing a maintonDl1C'0 <br /> <br /> <br />of 5,,000,000. <br /> <br /> <br />CHATIlI.IAN HOOVER:' No, you only have to keep up 7-1. million a year. <br /> <br /> <br />!.LB.. CALDrlELL: If you attach this, to tho minimum flow and mean that <br /> <br /> <br />thore shall only be a ee.n ar;ainst the Uppor Basin sufficiont to fill that <br /> <br /> <br />reserv6ir once and let that romain as a guaranty against thoir low water, <br /> <br /> <br />while. wo koep the nater from tho Upper Basin running past Lee I s Ferry to the <br /> <br /> <br />oxtent of 75,000,000 in ten years, I say.the lanr;uage docs not show that <br /> <br /> <br />that d.s what ls meDnt. <br /> <br /> <br />CHAIRMAN HOOVEll: I think you would cut o.utall of your trouble if you <br /> <br /> <br />would. cut out the word "so". <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />.-; <br />
