April 7, 2008 <br />Tyler Martineau told the Roundtable that the Needs Assessment Committee felt that there was a <br />lot of merit in the approach taken by the Arkansas Basin Roundtable. They recommended that <br />the Roundtable ask CDM to take the Gunnison Basin attributes and map them in the same <br />manner as the Arkansas Basin had done by grouping like attributes. The subcommittee could <br />then look at this information at their May meeting and present it to the Roundtable. <br />Tom Kenyon made a motion to forward the list of kayaking, rafting, lakes and reservoirs to <br />CDM for the purpose of creating a draft map to be vetted by the Roundtable at a later date. Ron <br />Shaver seconded, and the motion carried. <br />Steve Glazer made a motion to instruct CDM to map the non-consumptive recreational water <br />attributes to be vetted at a later date for review by the Needs Assessment subcommittee. Dennis <br />Steckel seconded and the motion carried. <br />Steve Glazer then requested that presentation of the Environmental Flow Evaluation Tool be <br />scheduled for the May meeting. <br />3. Presentation to Eastern Slope Basin Roundtables <br />The Committee made a presentation to the Metro Roundtable on March 12. The members <br />discussed their feelings about the visit. Hugh Sanburg summed it up as all three visits to the <br />Eastern Slope Basin Roundtables were generally valuable. He suggested proceeding with <br />visiting other Roundtables. It was also suggested that the presentation that had been prepared <br />could be used for educational purposes in the Gunnison Basin. <br />Hugh Sanburg made a motion to have Michelle Pierce contact other Roundtables in the Western <br />Slope and the Rio Grande, to see if they would be interested in seeing the presentation. Ron <br />Shaver seconded, and the motion carried. <br />Michelle Pierce mentioned that all three Eastern Slope Roundtables had all agreed to come for a <br />tour of the Gunnison basin. She mentioned that Eric Hecox could provide some funds to help <br />with these tours. It was agreed that Marc Catlin was the best person to put those tours together. <br />4. Education Liaison <br />Jeff Crane, a member of the IBCC Education Subcommittee, had been contracted by the CWCB <br />to develop a list of other parties interested in water, and requested the help of the GBRT <br />members to provide some names. <br />Additionally, Jeff offered to be the Gunnison Basin Roundtable Education Liaison to the IBCC. <br />However, it was recommended and agreed on that our liaison should be a member of the <br />Gunnison Basin Roundtable. <br />5. Letter from Eastern Slope Roundtables <br />The Roundtable members reviewed and discussed a response letter drafted by the Colorado <br />River District. <br />The Roundtable members had quite a few comments on the letter, and it was suggested that <br />Michelle Pierce forward the comments of the Gunnison Basin Roundtable to the Colorado River <br />District and request another draft letter be written. <br />4 <br />
