"Yes, I would say that it is."

MR. MOSES:

"Is there any further discussion? If
not, I will entertain a motion that the
reconwendations of the Committee be accepted
by the Board."

Mr. Miller asked if these comments, particularly the
last paragraph was in accordance with the Governor's letter to
Governor Mechem. He was assured that it was.

MR. PETERSON: "I am a firm believer that when a
committee has been appointed by this Board
and have come out with a unanimous report,
I feel we should go along with the committee's
report. I would like to move that we accept
the recommendations of the committee as to our
comments to the Secretary of the Interior on
the San Juan-Chama Project etc."

MR. WUNSCH: "Second the motion."

MR. NDSES: "I should like to have that motion include
that these comments should be transmitted
prompt ly. "

MR. BARNARD, JR.: "I would like to say this. There was a
lack of complete unanimity on one particular
comment. That has to do with specific comments
on the Indian status."

MR. CRAWFORD: "That is a separate item. I explained
that we had divided the comments into two
parts. "

MR. NDSES: "Is there any further discussion on this
motion? If not, I will ask for the question."

lIlR. CRAWFDRD:
MR. )V'lOSES: c

"Question. "

I

"Do you all understand the motion?
It was that the recommendations of the
Committee as to our comments to the Secretary
of the Interior on the San Juan-Chama Pro-
ject be accepted and transmitted as promptly
as possible.

All those in favor signify by saying
'aye'; contrary the same."
