project definite plan report draft is in the
final stages of review and analysis. The plan
of development was reported on at our last
meeting. preconstruction activities will con-
tinue during the remainder of this fiscal year.

On the Savery-Pot Hook project, some of
the basic field WOD( and investigations have
been moved along. Studies are being made to
see if additional lands could be included to
replace lands in the Fourmile and Timberlake
areas that were determined to be nonirrigable.

We have received two inquiries on small
reclamation projects. One of them being from
the Yamcolo Reservoir Company, Yampa, colorado,

Company, Hotchkiss, Colorado. Engineers are
preparing loan applications for their respective

Non~ood, Colorado, recently submitted a notice

Gurley Reservoir.

vation in there of a possible later use by the
city of Gallup.
