<br />Yahn: In north system, we are short system, so we have 100 years of history <br />to know what will be best way to utilize our farms. Thus, over the years, this <br />kind of study has been done although without this level of technology. <br /> <br />Fred Walker: I am a supporter of the "buy and dry"; I live in urbanizing area <br />and "one size fits all" does not fit every situation. We need to be careful that <br />we are not limiting the possibility for others. <br /> <br />RalfTopper: I attended Metro Roundtable meeting; Jay Winter of the lower <br />AK Valley did a presentation; Metro Roundtable agreed to fund Parker <br />request in part because they saw two different approaches to same problem: <br />mral approach from AK and urban approach from Parker. <br /> <br />Jaeger: Point of this is that AG community controls water. <br /> <br />Gene Manuello: As Ag. Rep for South Platte Round Table, believe that this is <br />an important issue for us to consider. There is extensive awareness of what is <br />proposed in this study; 100% of people I talked to are not in favor of Ag <br />suppOlting this project; not against it, but not for it. Also, does not feel that <br />the Roundtable money is to be used for this. We have so many other projects. <br /> <br />Jerke: This is South Platte Roundtable money; have you considered asking <br />for study money from State Wide Pool? <br /> <br />Jaeger: Yes, we are considering it. <br /> <br />McVicker: State Wide money seems appropriate. <br /> <br />Forrest Whitman: Look at original testimony of 1177 concept, coming from <br />CCI AG committee; notion is that 1177 roundtables would come up with <br />innovative approaches to global problem; would favor the notion to funding <br />innovative solutions. <br /> <br />Jerke: This is a potential 3 year process; is it really innovative? <br />Not thinking of the Parker question in and of itself, but other studies that are <br />already here. <br /> <br />Bmce Gerk: Long standing discussion we have had at this roundtable; lots of <br />impacts, lots of philosophies; go back to development of river and survival of <br />river and return flows; we have not discussed the ag communities and the <br />impact of return flows on them; have not discussed the change of technology <br />and the impact on the ag communities; impacts on mral CO; where can we <br />stretch the ability of an area to support them and provide food for them, need <br />to realize that the things that we are doing in this Roundtable to address what <br />our grandchildren in 2100 will need; cannot continue to reduce the food <br />supply; cannot as a farmer accept that reducing the food supply is a good <br /> <br />7 <br />
