In Colorado, low stream flow is among the most serious <br />threats to fishery health, and TU commits considerable resources and efforts towards remedying <br />this problem. TU is highly interested in the CWCS's instream flow program and strongly <br />supports the eWCB in its effort to preserve and improve the natural environment through the <br />instream flow program. In this proceeding, Trout Unlimited plans to support the Board's <br />instream flow appropriation. <br /> <br />2. Contested Facts <br /> <br />Trout Unlimited does not contest any facts in this proceeding and concurs with the facts <br />contained in the staff's instream flow recommendation and report. TU is unaware of which, if <br />any, facts other parties to this proceeding may contest. <br /> <br />. <br />
