MR. STAPLETQ.N:

can make up this slight delay. \ole have done some
additional work to include the Four Mile Creek
area as an additional segment to this project.

On the Dallas Creek Project work is on
schedule, progressing along in fine shape. I
Feasibility reports are scheduled on this project
and the West Divide Project in F. Y. 65 and F. Y.
64, Dallas within about six or eight months .
from now and West Divide immediately behind that
time.

I think we reported at the last meeting the
matter of a contribution of $5,000 from the
state Water Board and $1,000 from the Yellow
Jacket Water Conservancy District which we
matched with $14,000 to cover certain mapping
contracts in that area was completed.

Now the three remaining investigations that
we have initiated work on are the Battlement
Mesa Project near Collbran, the Bluestone Project
around DeBeque on up through Grand Valley, and
the Grand Mesa Project in the Cedaredge area.
All of the work has been initiated on these
three investigations and they are coming along
on schedule.

The last remaining item we have is the
Small Reclamation Projects Program and I think
the first project of this type in the state of
Colorado. It is a small pumping project just
north of Delta, Colorado, near Cory, Colorado.
The Orchard City Irrigation District is the
sponsoring agency and all work has been completed
to make a start on this project with the excep-
tion of final court confirmation of the contract.
That is under way. It involves a period of ad-
vertising for three or four weeks and that is
under way. Funds are available to start that
project and we anticipate that it will get
started later on this summer.

I

Mr. Chairman, that concludes my report."

"Thank you, Bob. Are there any questions
from members of the Board?"
