<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />0/U <br /> <br />Legislature one way or another whether <br />it should wait or go ahead. I think we <br />should be ready to furnish any information <br />which the Legislature asks us for but I do <br />not think we should come out definitely <br />for any particular under-ground water Bill." <br /> <br />MR. r,1cCANDLESS: <br /> <br />"It seems to me it resolves down to <br />the fact as to whether we have enough <br />knowledge to prepare a workable law. I <br />doubt if we do have." <br /> <br />MR. MOSES: <br /> <br />"This ground-water has been the subject <br />of a great deal of controversy for some <br />time." <br /> <br />MR. NELSON: <br /> <br />"Has the Water Board added up all the <br />requests we are making of the Legislature?" <br /> <br />"I shouldn't be sticking my neck out <br />with all of these good water attorneys <br />around but 1 should like to speak for the <br />property owners. In this ground-water law - <br />the property owner who might have land over <br />an isolated body of water or an underground <br />lake, what happens? We don't want to in- <br />fringe on the rights that some people might <br />have." <br /> <br />MR. BURR: <br /> <br />MR. NELSON: <br /> <br />"I am from the only County that has <br />quite a bit of under-ground pumping activity. <br />This is the Mesa County Pumping Area." <br /> <br />MR. MOSES: <br /> <br />'~hat is your pleasure on this Resolu- <br />tion? Is there any other discussion?" <br /> <br />Mr. George Everett from Salida said a few words con- <br />cerning wells in his County. <br /> <br />MR. MOSES: <br /> <br />"Are you ready for the question? <br />Mr. Barnard?" <br /> <br />MR. BARNARD: <br /> <br />"I am wondering if we are ready for the <br />question. Are we going to take the position <br />by adopting this Resolution that we don't <br />believe the Legislature has enough informa- <br />tion for passing a water Bill? <br />
