The Bureau of Reclamation has <br />informed us that there is another budget cate~ory (''Minor work in con- <br />nection with completed project investigation") under which work on the <br />proposed Yellow Jacket Project will be conducted in fiscal year 1976 I <br />and the transition quarter. We request the Water Conservation Board <br />join the River District, however, in asking for assurance that there will <br />be enough money in whatever the budget category for work on the Yellow <br />Jacket Project feasibility study and other development in both the Yampa <br />and White River Basins. Northwestern Colorado should not be expected to <br />forego development based either on funding or the calculation of water <br />supply. <br /> <br />-10- <br />
