<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />l!") <br />C\1 <br />- <br /> <br />service of 26,420 acres of land not now irrigated. The project <br /> <br />would also develop an average of 44,000 acre-feet annually of muni- <br /> <br />cipal and industrial water and 500 acre-feet of water for fish <br /> <br />and wildlife use exclusively. <br /> <br />The San Miguel project will cost approximately $71.3 <br /> <br />million. Of this, approximately $63.6 million will be repaid to <br /> <br />the federal government and $384,000 has been prepaid by power <br /> <br />revenUes from the Colorado River Development Fund and private <br /> <br />sources, leaving only about $7.3 million nonreimbursable. <br /> <br />The benefit-cost ratio of this project is 1.52 to 1. <br /> <br />Hearings have been held by the Subcommittee on Irrigation and <br /> <br />Reclamation of the House committee on Interior and Insular Affairs. <br /> <br />It is endorsed by the upper Colorado River commission, the State of <br /> <br />colorado, and individuals, service organizations and public bodies <br /> <br />in the project area. To the best of my knowledge there is no oppo- <br /> <br />sition to this project. <br /> <br />The San Biguel water Conservancy District will enter <br /> <br />into repayment contracts for the reimbursable irrigation features <br /> <br />of the project. It is anticipated that the Colorado Department of <br /> <br />Game, Fish and parks will guarantee the reimbursable recreation <br /> <br />and fish and wildlife features, and that private industry and the <br /> <br />municipalities in the area will contract for the municipal and <br /> <br />industrial water. I therefore urge the projects committee of this <br /> <br />San Miguel Project -3- <br />
