<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: The next item on the agenda is the appointment of a <br />member on the Colorado Water Quality control Commission. We asked for <br />some volunteers from the board. Have we received any? <br /> <br />Mr. Sparks: I regret to inform you, Mr. Chairman, that we have received <br />no volunteers as yet. I think it will take some urging. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: Who is covering the commission? <br /> <br />Mr. Sparks: At the present time, Mr. Morrill, Deputy Director of the <br />Board, is covering the meetings. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: It is a big job and two of our members have devoted a <br />good deal of time to membership on that board. It meets quite often. <br />The discussions, I understand, are quite lengthy. They are interesting, <br />but it really is in addition to the duties on this board. Nevertheless, <br />I would like to not appoint a staff member until we have heard from no <br />one on the board within another period of say by April 15. I would <br />encourage you to take a look at it, but I realize the problems of time <br />are difficult. I would suggest that if we have no volunteers from the <br />board, then I would like to give authority to the director to appoint <br />one of the staff as a member of that commission. Does that sound like <br />a plausible procedure? Does anybody have any other procedure you would <br />like to follow? If not, I would like to have a motion. <br /> <br />Mr. Kroeqer: So moved, Ben. <br /> <br />Mr. Cornelius: I second it. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: It has been moved and seconded that in the event we don't <br />have a volunteer from the board by April l5, the director be authorized <br />to appoint a member of his staff as the Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board's member on the Water Quality Control Commission. All in favor <br />signify by saying "aye" - opposed, "no." It is so ordered. <br /> <br />The next item is the resolution re funding of reclamation projects. You <br />have that as agenda item number 4. Larry, would you start a review of <br />that? <br /> <br />~~. Sparks: Mr. Chairman, the board will recall that we had a rather <br />trying session almost exactly a year ago with reference to setting up <br />a priority schedule for the funding of authorized reclamation projects <br />in Colorado. As a result of rather lengthy discussions and presentations <br />pro and con concerning the various projects, we adopted a priority <br />schedule which we then forwarded to the governor and to the members of <br /> <br />-13- <br />
