McDONALD: Colonel Stipo is the District <br /> <br /> <br />Engineer for the Omaha District -- <br /> <br /> <br />MR. FETCHER: Okay. That's all. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. McDONALD: -~-Missouri River Division, U.S. <br /> <br /> <br />Army Corps of Engineers. He is the individual who's taken <br /> <br /> <br />immediate action. <br /> <br />MR. FETCHER: <br />MR. JACKSON: <br /> <br />Okay. <br />I'd like to ask a question, John, <br /> <br />if I could. Is the Dredge and Fill Permit tied to the water <br /> <br /> <br />rights question? I'm confused. Are they just using that <br /> <br /> <br />for blackmail or <br /> <br /> <br />MR. SAYRE: Yeah, they did it at Gray Rocks.

SAYRE: And that's what this Board is charged <br /> <br />with, is utilization of the State waters and development and <br /> <br />we think this Board is a proper <br /> <br />MR. JACKSON: Tell me their position in arguing <br /> <br />about water rights. What water rights are they claiming <br />senior to yours so they can -- <br />MR. SAYRE: They're not claiming any water rights. <br />
