Thereupon Attorney General Hinkley presented the follow-
ing resolution and moved its passage:

RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, it appears, and the Colorado Water Conservation
Board does find, that the State Engineer of Colorado is re-
quired to publish a Biennial Report which, besides a text show-
ing water supply, crop conditions and material concerning
storage reservoirs and dams and other general information,
contains a description of stream gaging stations and tables
of stream discharges for the biennial period; that such re-
port is used by the Colorado Water Conservation Board and is
essential for carrying out certain phases of the work of the
Board; and that the material for the Thirty-second Biennial
Report of the State Engineer, issued as a report of the De-
partment of Water Resources for the 'year 1943-l944, is ready
for publication; and

WHEREAS, from the representation made to the Board by
M. C. Hinderlider, State Engineer, there are inadequate funds
in his department for the payment of $4,600 required for the
publication of such Thirty-second Biennial Report, and that
he has in his funds available for such purposes only the sum
of $2,000 and the balance of $2,600 must be paid from other
sources; and

WHEREAS, it appears that unless such payment by the Board
is made, the above mentioned report cannot be published and
made available and there will be a hiatus in the series of
such reports;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Colorado Water Con-
servation Board that the sum of $2,600 be paid by this Board
as a part of the cost of the publication of the Thirty-second-
Biennial Report of the Department of Water Resources for the
year 1943-1944 and that the Director is hereby authorized to
draw a voucher in such amount on the funds of the Colorado Wa-
ter Conservation Board for the Biennium 1943-1945 for such pur-
pose.

Geo. A. Pughe seconded the adoption of the motion and af-
ter further discussion, a vote was taken resulting in the un-
animous passage of the motion and the resolution was declared
adopted.

The Director then called attention to the fact that there was
due under the existing cooperative contract between the Colorado Water
Conservation Board and the U. S. Geological Survey for the installation,
maintenance and operation of gaging stations for project investigations
the sum of $6,300.

Thereupon J. M. Dille offered the following resolution
and moved its passage:
