DRAFT - 9/26/01 <br />SECWCD - AURORA IGA <br />authorized for Reoperations contracts pursuant to section 8(b) of H.R. 1714, <br />whichever period is shorter. <br />b. Within 30 days following execution of this IGA, Aurora will <br />request the United States to renew its current one -year if -and -when contract (No. <br />OOXX6C0141) for storage in Fry -Ark Project facilities for one year beginning <br />-January 1, 2002, specifying in its request that the use of storage pursuant to <br />the renewed contract shall be limited to water rights owned by Aurora prior to <br />1999, which excludes the water rights described in Case No. 99CW169. Such <br />request shall be made in writing, with a copy provided to Southeastern. While <br />Southeastern maintains its position that Reclamation lacks authority under current <br />law to contract with Aurora for use of Fry -Ark facilities, Southeastern shall not <br />actively oppose Aurora's request for a one -year contract renewal, limited as <br />described above. However, Southeastern does not consent to issuance of a <br />contract for storage in Fry -Ark Project facilities of those water rights described in <br />Case No. 99CW169. Aurora may request further one -year renewals of such <br />annual contract prior to enactment of H.R 1714 with amendments as contemplated <br />by section IV.A. La hereof (or successor legislation thereto). Absent enactment of <br />such legislation, Southeastern does not consent to issuance of further annual <br />contracts to Aurora after 2004, nor to issuance of any contract for' storage in Fry- <br />Ark Project facilities of those water rights described in Case No. 99CW 169 for <br />use by Aurora. <br />10 <br />
