I CQ The sponGoring groups along with several townspeople and local ranchers, at a meetins held in Saguache on February 10, 1969 agreed that reservoirs for water storage were the only possible solutions. This could be either onu or two larger reservoirs or several smaller reservoirs to be consider- ed on the main channel and also on some of the major tributaries. Channel clearance and re-alignment together with the reorganization of the dis- tribution system would also be necessaxy. A certain amount of land treat- ment such as heeding and erasion.control would also have to be considered.
