<br />rapidly as we can; <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: I might say that all the other entities that are interested <br />in storage in Chatfield have no tnterest in minimum flows. Denver is <br />the only one that is involved in the minimum flows. The rest of the <br />entities simply want storage space. <br /> <br />MR. JACKSON: Second. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />MR. VANDEMOER: I move for approval. <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: Any further discussion? (No response.)

SPARKS: Mr. Ogilvie, or Bob, would you like to inform Congressman <br />Wirth's office in Washington? It is now 12:30 in Washington, D. C. <br /> <br />(Whereupon Mr. Ogilvie and Mr. Fischer left the meeting.) . <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: Is there anyone here from the Bureau of Recl!Ullation <br />today? Larry Nelson, would you discuss the status of the Front Range <br />project. <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: First, I might preface the remarks here a moment as to <br />why we put this item on the agenda. <br /> <br />As has been illustrated by the problem here in the metropolitan area, <br />we are having a similar problem,up and down the Front Range, in <br />connection with water supplies. Virtually every community -- and all <br />through Colorado, on both sides of the mountains -- are having a great <br />deal of difficulty keeping up with expanding water requirements. <br /> <br />This Front Range study was authorized by Congress, some years ago to <br />look at the possibilities of better regulation of'the water supplies <br />that we have over here. That includes all potential us~s - agri- <br />cultural, municipal, industrial, recreational, what have you. This I <br />study has been progressing for several years. It is a very,difficult <br />type of study to prrive at any firm conclusions. The status report has <br />been issued" which the board members have in their folders" This <br />morning we thought that because of the critical situation in the Front <br />Range cities, we would have the Bureau review the nature of some of <br />these st,udies. <br /> <br />MR. NELSON: I am Larry Nelson, Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Missouri <br /> <br />.,8- <br />
