<br />h <br />365 <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Dallas Creek Pro~ect. Initiation of detailed <br />investigation of this project is not scheduled until <br />FY 1961. The necessary stream gages were installed in <br />the fall of 1955 and a period of 3 to 5 years record <br />is needed before water supply operation studies can be <br />completed and the project studies can go forward. <br /> <br />Troublesome Project. Detailed investigations <br />are scheduled to start in FY 1960. A period of stream <br />gaging is needed for this project before water supply <br />studies for a feasibility report can be completed. <br /> <br />Battlement Mesa and Eagle Divide Projects. <br />Not schedu~das yet. Priority has been given to <br />Fruitland Mesa, Bostwick Park, Ohio Creek, West Divide, <br />Parshall, ~roublesome, and Dallas Creek projects. <br /> <br />With respect to the program schedule outlined <br />above, it should be mentioned that priority has been <br />given to definite plan studies to the 11 initial <br />participating projects after FY 1957. Thus outside of <br />West Divide no new project investigations are scheduled <br />to start in FY 1958 and 1959. After FY 1959 definite <br />plan studies taper off somewhat which permits the <br />initiation of some new project investigations in <br />FY 1960 and after. <br /> <br />We hope this information will be of value to <br />the Board in appraising and understanding our proposed <br />program for "projects in the Cliffs-Divide and Gunnison <br />River areas. We are continuing at a high priority the <br />investigations of the Dolores and Animas-La Plata <br />Projects. Upon completion of the Yampa-White <br />reconnaissance report now scheduled for December 1956 <br />we will then be in a position to appraise future program <br />requirements in the Yampa and White River Basins. <br /> <br />Please advise us as to your concurrence in the <br />program as outlined above. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Very truly yours, <br />/s/ E. O. Larson" <br />
