<br />1:i4<J <br /> <br />!\fR. McCANDLESS: <br /> <br />J'vlR. SPARKS: <br /> <br />MR. BARNARD: <br /> <br />out the indicated policy of the board, <br />i. e., we recommend only legislation <br />which would eliminate drilling in <br />critical areas and enable us to acquire <br />information on which we could base a <br />complete ground water code. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Would you like to go back over <br />the bill that I have prepared? <br /> <br />In Section 4, the members of the <br />committee felt that in sub-paragraph <br />(3) the 1st of July of '58 was not <br />sufficient time; it should be January <br />1, 1959, and the filing fee should be <br />~10.00 instead of $2.00. The Legisla- <br />ture will insist that this legislation <br />carry its own weight from a financial <br />standpoint and this can only be done <br />if the filing fee is increased. <br /> <br />In Section 5, we recommend the <br />insertion of this sentence: <br /> <br />'The Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board and the State Engineer are <br />hereby designated as the responsible <br />agencies for the administration and <br />enforcement of this Act.'" <br /> <br />"Under this sub-paragraph 3 - 'any <br />existing well' - does that mean any <br />stock watering well or any well used <br />for domestic purposes?" <br /> <br />"Sub-paragraph 4 of this Section <br />4 answers your question, I believe." <br /> <br />"On page 5 in the second full para- <br />graph on the page just below the sen- <br />tence beginning 'The State Engineer <br />shall. - - .' also answers your <br />questions. In this same paragraph, <br />in the third line from the end of the <br />paragraph 'or except to deepen, re- <br />place, or reconstruct wells' - this <br />was discussed and the committee mem- <br />bers felt it should be left that way. <br /> <br />I <br />
