<br />MR. SLIZESKI: <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />MR. SLIZESKI: <br /> <br />l-lR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />will lose a working year unless additional <br />funds are included in the budget." <br /> <br />"This would be true. Of course, the <br />legislative procedures you described are <br />frequently used in such matters. Our most <br />recent information is that the hearings on <br />appropriations for flood control projects <br />\"ill be held." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />"I am sure that if ...Ie get this matter <br />ironed out with Arizona, we will have a <br />sympathetic person in Senator Hayden. <br /> <br />Senator Allott is also a member of the <br />Senate Appropriations committee and it appears <br />very possible that Senator Allott will be able <br />to secure additional funds in the Senate. I <br />am sure that Congressmen McViCker and Rogers <br />will have equal success in the House. We are <br />determined, I think, as a matter of state <br />policy to push this matter so that we do not <br />lose a construction year." <br /> <br />"Joe, let me ask you, I think after the <br />flood we saw some preliminary flood plain <br />information on Bear and Clear Creeks. Have <br />there been any substantial changes from those <br />reports that were in temporary form then?" <br /> <br />"No, sir, there haven't been. Of course, <br />there is some difference in Volume III report <br />on Bear and Clear Creeks in which, because of <br />the high velocity, high potential velocity, <br />involved on these streams, our larger hazard <br />area has been defined as the flood plain area. <br />So this is not related to a specific discharge. <br />The report then defines the one percent proba- <br />bility hazard area and the overall hazard area <br />of these basins." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />"Thank you. <br />to the Corps of <br />from members of <br /> <br />Are there any other questions <br />Engineers, omaha District, <br />the Board?" <br />
