<br />I <br /> <br />MR. PETERSON: <br /> <br />RON. ASPINALL: <br /> <br />MR. PETERSON: <br /> <br />HON. ASPINALL: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />MR. CRAWFORD: <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: <br /> <br />-/49 <br /> <br />Since it was a two-state project we <br />spent money in there and got a report <br />out which, of course, indicated no addi- <br />tional money should be spent on further <br />study there." -/ <br /> <br />"Mr. Larson, you understand that <br />recommendations made by this Board are <br />based not upon the amount of money to be <br />appropriated but the desire to have one <br />project in the State of Colorado investi- <br />gated before another. <br /> <br />We have two points in mind when recom- <br />mending a project: (1) feasibility and <br />(2) hardship cases; and that is how we ar- <br />rive at priority. We don't say you should <br />allocate all of your money to one particu- <br />lar project but we feel that that project <br />should be completed before another is <br />started." <br /> <br />"I think, in all due fairness to the <br />Bureau representatives, I should explain <br />how these matters are taken care of in the <br />Appropriations Committee. Now they are <br />limited in making rearrangements. They <br />can't change too much. They must make <br />their case before the Appropriations Com- <br />mittee and stand on it." <br /> <br />"What I had in mind - that the Bureau <br />in making their appearance before the <br />Appropriations Committee, I think, should <br />take into consideration the requirements <br />of the State or Board for the priority." <br /> <br />"Don't you have any program for San <br />Juan and Dolores?" <br /> <br />"Dolores is number one and the Animas- <br />La Plata number two in the planning stage." <br /> <br />"Mr. Larson, you, of course, under- <br />stand our disappointment concerning the <br />status of the Curecanti. Is there anything <br />the State, through this Board, can do to <br />expedite that report?" <br />
