<br />O::JV~ <br /> <br />MR. BERTHELSON: <br /> <br />MR. GOODWIN: <br /> <br />MR. KROEGER: <br /> <br />MR. CORNELIUS: <br /> <br />. , . <br />people would store water ~n every stream ~n <br />the world and we'd lose the big end of it by <br />evaporation. I think that is a thing we <br />need to watch, Larry. It was in pretty much <br />the first part of this bill." <br /> <br />"Page 3. the bottom line." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />"There it is, yes. It's in the sixth <br />paragraph on page 3. It says 'and shall <br />include the impoundment of water for fishery <br />and recreational purposes'. I would say in <br />a limited way. I would add something to that <br />language, because I think you need to be <br />reasonable with everybody but I think they <br />need to be reasonable too. <br /> <br />I think that is about all at this time." <br /> <br />"Thank you, Craig. <br /> <br />Do any other members of the Board have <br />comments they'd like to make? <br /> <br />Quincy. " <br /> <br />"I'd like to say that I am in agreement <br />with a lot of the things that have been said <br />here this morning. People in the San Luis <br />Valley have been very apprehensive of any <br />change in water legislation as are other <br />people who use water around the state. <br />There is a hope by some that the San Luis <br />Valley, or at least a part of it, may some- <br />time become a designated groundwater basin <br />which would be excluded from this legisla- <br />tion. There is the realization that there <br />has to be some method of defining the water <br />rights of the underground water users. <br /> <br />I think the quantitative limitation of I <br />water and the charge of fees to the users <br />is premature right now. Otherwise, I think. <br />I can go along with the majority opinion <br />that has been expressed this morning." <br />
