Our understanding of the <br />legislative intent here is that the mitigation proposal requirement applies only in those <br />cases where the project sponsor is applying for mitigation funding from the Fish and <br />Wildlife Resources Account of the CWCB Construction Fund as provided in the statute. <br /> <br />Please let me know if you have any questions or if we can be of any further assistance. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />/?~ <br /> <br />William E. Green, P .E. <br />Manager of Planning <br />Project Planning and Construction <br /> <br />cc: Peter Evans <br />Bill Stanton <br />Larry Clever, Ute WCD <br />Linda Bassi, AGO <br />
