This is the eighth resurvey <br />cf the reservcir sediment ranges and the sixth resurvey cf the <br />ranges below the dam since the range system was established in <br />1942. A report on the results of the resurvey will be prepared <br />and distributed tc interested agencies during Fiscal Year 1968. <br /> <br />We do net plan tc have a representative at the Beard <br />meeting on 23 September 1966.
