<br />constrain both the outcome of the Recovery Program and the economic vitality of the <br />community. With adaptive management, and perhaps even changes in flow regimes over <br />time, could the Program not achieve its goals? <br /> <br />Finally, I would urge you to see your constituents as all of the people of both Colorado <br />and the United States. The vast majority of the water under consideration is available because <br />the watersheds were protected, at the turn of the last century, as Forest Reserves. There are, quite <br />naturally, advocates on many sides of this public process who will encourage alternatives that <br />serve only their focused agendas. The Palmer Divide Water Group is no exception. Our agenda <br />is to make water reserved under the Colorado River Compact available to our member agencies <br />in a thoughtful but economically efficient way. <br /> <br />In 1905. the Forest Reserves were transferred to the United States Department of <br />Agriculture and renamed the National Forests. Agriculture Secretary James Wilson, in a letter to <br />Chief Forester Gifford Pinchot, admonished him to: A..see to it that the water, wood antiforage <br />of the reserves are managed to assure the greatest good to the greatest number of people in the <br />long run.@3 We strongly encourage you to do the same. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration of these remarks. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Garald L. Barber <br />Manager <br /> <br />384tb Congress, 1st Session, House Document No. 32: The Yearbook of Agriculture 1955. p. 195. <br />
