We plan to review these proposals and select an engineer to assist <br />us in studying our options as soon as possible. As you know, the Carl Smith Reservoir is <br />extremely important to Leroux Creek Water Users, not only for the storage it provides, <br />but also for the regulation of water releases from higher reservoirs. As such, we hope to <br />be able to design a plan which will allow us to use this reservoir in some capacity this <br />year. <br />To this end, we would greatly appreciate any assistance the Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board could 'give us, especially with up front costs for engineering. Further, we would <br />hope that money already authorized for our use for the Lost HlDlter and Sheep Drive <br />Reservoirs could be used for this new and more important project <br />Again, I would like to thank you for your time and attention. ffyou have any questions <br />or suggestions, feel free to call me anytime. <br /> <br />Sincerely yours, <br /> <br />A 0Jl <br /> <br /> <br />Tom Alvey, President <br />
