<br />Mr. Fetcher: This particular project is somewhat related to No.6, the <br />Lower Yampa project. As you all know, it is almost up to the construc- <br />tion phase and naturally we would like to see it progress. That is <br />about my only comment. I am sorry that John Sherman who came here to <br />speak on it hasn't arrived yet. He had a doctor's appointment, but I <br />will say a few words on No. 6 when we get to it. <br /> <br />in tha aUdiancal <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: All right. Any comments from any members <br />on the Savery-Pot Hook? John, will you then so move? <br /> <br />Mr. Fetcher: I so move. <br /> <br />~tr. Kroeqer: I second it. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: It has been regularly moved and seconded that the Savery- <br />Pot Hook reclamation project resolution be approved. All those in favor <br />signify by saying "aye" - opposed, "no." The resolution is carried. <br />(See Appendix E) . <br /> <br />Next is the Closed Basin project. Quincy Cornelius, would you like to <br />comment on it? <br /> <br />Mr. Cornelius: l~. Chairman, I would like to introduce Franklin Eddy, <br />Manager of the Rio Grande Water Conservation District, who may have <br />some remarks about this resolution. <br /> <br />ftt. Eddy: Mr. Chairman, a year ago in December of '72 we asked the <br />board to delay any active work on this until we had a chance to do some <br />survey work on the installation of the great many sprinkler systems in <br />the area immediately west of the Closed Basin project. Since that time, <br />we have ran two surveys, and the board is now satisfied that this is <br />not going to be a detriment to the project, or to the water table west <br />of the project. So my board and the Trinchera Conservancy District and <br />the conejos Conservancy District in the last five days have voted to go <br />along with your resolution and the San Luis Conservancy District and <br />the Rio Grande Water Users Association have agreed to stand on their <br />old resolution being in favor of the projects. So we have the major <br />water groups of the valley in favor of this resolution. Thank you. <br /> <br />~tr. Cornelius: ptr. Chairman, I move adoption of the resolution. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Pickrel: I second it, Mr. Chairman. <br /> <br />Mr. Stapleton: It has been regularly moved and seconded that the Closed <br />Basin project resolution as drawn be adopted. Any further discussion? <br /> <br />-16- <br />
