Hunter presented a request that this Board consider <br />and act upon certain changes in the Operating Principles for the <br />Arkansas-F~jingpan Project and especially in section 15 as approved <br />June 15, 1950. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />After due consideration, it was moved, seconded and carried unani- <br />mously that because of the fact the matter has progressed so far, <br />this Board feels it should interpose no objection to the proposed <br />diversion, but with the clear and distinct understanding this con- <br />sent shall not be considered as waiver of objections to any other <br />federally financed transmountain diversion of the waters of the <br />Colorado River; and with the further understarrling that the State <br />Water Conservation Board of the State of Colorado shall not approve <br />of any other such federally financed diversion project until the <br />studies of the needs of the Western Slope be fully completed so <br />that an intelligent decision relative to such needs may be given. <br />
