MEMORANDUM - Ruedi Reservoir <br />Page 5 <br />d. Back when the project authorization was being debated by Congress, the <br />CWCB, through Felix Sparks, wrote a letter stating that if the West Slope <br />could not repay its portion of the capital cost of Ruedi, the State of Colorado <br />would guarantee the repayment. While this letter may not be a legally <br />binding contract, the record is clear that Colorado's Congressional delegation <br />used the letter to obtain key support for the authorization of the project. <br />Ruedi Reservoir will again be on the CWCB's agenda for the May 12 and 13 meetings. Prior <br />to those meetings, I would like to meet with West Slope entities that have an interest in Ruedi's <br />future. I suggest Wednesday, April 23` or April 30 ", or Thursday, May" in Glenwood Springs. <br />Our office will be contacting you to determine an available date. <br />If you have questions, comments, or additional alternatives please let me know. <br />REK:sks <br />Attachment <br />Pc: David Haliford <br />Mike Gross <br />Chris Treese <br />Peter Evans <br />Jim Lochhead <br />Jack Gamer <br />John Hamill <br />CRWCD Board <br />4 <br />
