<br />1340 <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />We are in the process at the present <br />time of preparing a large scale map <br />showing all the Federal land in this <br />State and all special use land, such as <br />national parks, national monuments, <br />scenic, primitive, wilderness, experi- , <br />mental forests, and so on. We will plot <br />all those in on this map. On that map <br />we will plot in every water project we <br />now have under contemplation in the State <br />of Colorado so that we can tell at a <br />glance what access is needed across ex- <br />isting special use areas and across <br />national forest areas so that we can <br />graphically portray the effect of this <br />bill upon our water resource development. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Barnard is busily engaged in col- <br />lecting all information at the hearings <br />that were held this past summer on that <br />bill and all past hearings concerning it. <br />We have received some private information <br />that he will probably have to go to Wash- <br />ington and dig out some things that govern- <br />mental agencies have put out on that bill. <br />That matter will come to a head some time <br />this month and when it does, then that in- <br />formation will be summarized to this'Board. <br />I am certainly glad that was brought up and <br />I think John would nave brought it up. We <br />do want to document special instances in <br />which existing preas have already handi- <br />capped development. We have heard of sev- <br />eral instances where we have had a lot of <br />trouble, people have had trouble with ex- <br />isting special use areas in the State of <br />Colorado. We would like to get correspon- <br />dence in which the Forest Service..has said <br />you can't do ~his or do that. ~e under- <br />stand that many of those instances already <br />exist and we are trying to document that <br />type of evidence right now. If certain <br />of the Board members have information, <br />perhaps, of instances where that has oc- <br />curred in the past, we would like to in- <br />terview the person who had the trouble and <br />we would like to get the correspondence <br />that he has had with federal agencies with <br />reference to this type of thing." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />"Was Mr. Saunders appointed to that <br />commi ttee?" <br />
