<br />HE: Objections by S.E. Conservancy District to Minimum
<br />Stream Flow r..9~PR ni't7i~inn ..5.- " .
<br />Case Nos. \t~aup8:JW-300iJ, W-3015, W-3053 tl1ro~gh W-3056,
<br />W--3058, W-3071, W-30;%, W--3013;L, W-3082, W-3085 through
<br />W-~.3088 and W-3090 J;z.- j9J': .
<br />
<br />Attached is a letter and a proposal from Chuck Beise regarding
<br />Division 5 minimum stream flow cases to which the S.E.
<br />Conservancy District filed Statements of Opposition. I feel
<br />that if we stipulate, as we did in Division 2, to the provisions
<br />of the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project in any case in which the S.E.
<br />Conservancy District has an interest, we are giving nothing
<br />that the law wouldn't give. Eowever, my feel:ing is that if
<br />we further sti.pulate to the phrase "and any amendments thereo.fT1
<br />that the stipulation will be completely open-ended for the
<br />District and would, in effect, subordinate minimum :flow rights
<br />to anythIng the DIstrict wished to do. I am assuming the District
<br />has the power to d(~termine "operating principlesTt. Unless you
<br />feel otherwise, this is the position I will take regarding
<br />Beise's proposals.
