(e) The comprehensive report of 'Colorado Water re-
sources, which has been under preparation by the Board's
staff for several months, is progressing satisfactorily.
This report is being prepared in collaboration with the
Colorado Development Council. It is now realized that
the extent of the report and the inclusion of many maps,
graphs and drawings, will involve a printing cost beyond
the amount of money which can be made available by the
Development Council for this purpose. Further, this is a
report which is greatly needed in the Colorado water pro-
. gram and which has been contemplated for some years.
. Accordingly, .there is included in the recommended budget
. for the next biennium adequate funds to insure the print-
. ing of the report.
