<br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />MR. SWEET: <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />MR. SWEET: <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />MR. ODELL: <br /> <br />whatever other deficiencies occur between now <br />and the time these events occur. This bill. I <br />understand, is being opposed by the Colorado <br />River Board of the State of California. What <br />its success will be in congress we do not <br />know." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />"Any other questions of Mr. Jennings? If <br />not, thanks very much, Bob. <br /> <br />We'll now ask Bud Sweet to report for <br />Region 5." <br /> <br />"Mr. Chairman, members of the Board,' I <br />can add nothing to this letter to the Board <br />that Leon Hill sent, dated March 30, 1965, <br />except to express our interest in what takes <br />place later on in this meeting." <br /> <br />"Thank you, Bud. You are referring to <br />Colorado's comments on the Closed Basin Proj- <br />ect, Item #5?" <br /> <br />"Right. " <br /> <br />"All right. Does anybody have any ques- <br />tions about any of the other two items on tile <br />report from Region 5? <br /> <br />If not, I'll ask Mr. Odell to report for <br />the U.S.G.S. if he will please. Mr. Odel!." <br /> <br />"l>'"lr. Chairman, members of the Board, ladies <br />and gentlemen, runoff for February (I'll in- <br />clude that month since most of the month was <br />after our last meeting) was near median except <br />in the northwestern part of the state where it <br />was below. This was primarily due to the low <br />temperatures during that period although precip <br />in a good many areas was below normal. As a <br />result of that, our snow pack during the month <br />of February lost from 10% to 20% as compared <br />to the normal snow pack. However, prospects <br />are good for an excellent yield this spring as <br />a result of conditions during March. Tempera- <br />tures still remain below normal but several <br />storms moved in with relatively heavy precip <br /> <br />I <br />
