<br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />MR. MOSES: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />LlVOI <br /> <br />"It would seem to me, in line wi th our <br />thinking (at least my thinking), that if a <br />state agency makes a request we would cer- <br />tainly have to honor that. The responsibil- <br />ity for anything in addition to that then <br />rests on the Colorado State University it <br />would seem to me. But rather than prolong it, <br />I would like to ask Larry if he would get up <br />for the next meeting, some statement on a <br />policy that we could adopt that would be fair <br />and that would be understood by the Legis- <br />lature from whom we derive our funds so that <br />we can go into this, perhaps, in a little <br />more detail. I only raise it because I think <br />we have a responsibility to account for our <br />funds and I wasn't sure in my own mind whether <br />the Legislators would like us to be expending <br />funds for private corporations as such, and <br />I think we would be well off to at least have <br />a policy that we all know we are operating <br />under. Does anybody have any objections to <br />that course? <br /> <br />All right, let's get into the heart6f <br />the matter itself. I ask Ray Moses to per- <br />haps summarize Jack Clayton's letter so that <br />we will have that in front of us. Ray." <br /> <br />"This is a letter that was written by <br />Clayton and Gilbert as attorneys for the <br />Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District <br />signed by Clayton and John Barkley as Secre- <br />tary-Manager, addressed to John N. Spen€er, <br />the Regional Director of Region 7.. <br /> <br />After reviewing the correspondence be- <br />tween Crown Zellerbach's attorneys .to the <br />Board and the staff's memorandum to the Board, <br />and the Colorado River Water Conservation <br />District Memorandum, the letter goes on to <br />say that 'the Colorado River WaterConserva- <br />tion District further states "The Colorado <br />River Water Conservation District supports <br />the Crown Zellerbach Corporation in this pro- <br />posal because such use complies f~lly with the <br />provisions and intent of the operating princi- <br />ples for the Colorado-Big Thompson Project as <br />set forth in Senate Document 80"'. That's <br />the end of the quote. The letter goes on to <br />state 'In behalf of the Northern Colorado <br />Water Conservancy District, at this prelimi- <br />
