<br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />MR. NORVIGL: There is a gauging station now being con- <br /> <br /> <br />structed in the Grand Canyon just above the terminus of the <br /> <br /> <br />Bright Angle Trail. That is being 'const~cted at a cost of <br /> <br /> <br />some ~~15, OOQ by the Geological Survey as a result of explora- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />tion of the river, for the purpose of finding a good place for <br /> <br /> <br />a stilling well required by Mr. Girand and is the outcome of the <br /> <br /> <br />investigation demanded of Mr. Girand by the Federal Power Com- <br /> <br /> <br />mission that he establish a stilling well, and gauging station <br /> <br /> <br />in conjunction \,Jith his proposition. The material is on the <br /> <br /> <br />ground and I suppose tho stilling well is under way. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. EHERSON: That would be below the mouth of the Little <br /> <br />Colorado? <br /> <br />MR. NORVIE~: Xes, fifty miles, I imagine, about fifty <br /> <br />miles below the inflow of the Little Colorado. . It is to be an <br /> <br /> <br />up-to-date, - as perfect a gauging station as probably can be <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />made. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. CAWHElL: Mr. Chairman, could not the states be asked <br /> <br />one at a time ,nlother or not they favor the point of division <br />being at Lee's Fer~J? <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: I think so. I was going to ask Mr. Arthur P. <br /> <br />Davis what his impression was, that ,ro may' have ~ll the infor- <br /> <br />mation on the,subject. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. cA. P. DAVIS: Hr. Chairman, the account given by Mr. <br />Norviel concerning the gauging station is correct. I was there <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />103 <br /> <br />103 <br />
