<br />.t.//;j~ <br /> <br />Wilderness Bill. You have a report on <br />that from Mr. Hamburg in your folders. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The Director calls to my attention <br />that the Wilderness Bill will probably take <br />a good deal of discussion and rather than <br />cut it short I think. we may defer this until <br />after lunch. I might announce to the Board <br />that we're meeting for the usual luncheon <br />meeting at 12:15 at the Argonaut, and inas- <br />much as this will be a long meeting today, <br />I'll hope that we can all be back by 1: 30. <br />So if it's agreeable to the Board, I'm <br />going to bypass, temporarily, item #5 and <br />ask now for the reports of the Federal <br />agencies. Jim Knights, are you going to <br />report from Region 7?" <br /> <br />MR. KNIGHTS: <br /> <br />"I can. First, Mr. Chaixman, I would <br />like to announce, as you know from the last <br />meeting, that the Area Engineer of the Denver <br />Development Office was transferred to Thailand; <br />Joe Barrett, and we have now permanently re- <br />placeJ.Mr. Barrett with M. J. Greer who entered <br />on duty on December 4th. Mr. Greer is an old <br />Bureau employee, having served some 23 years <br />with the Bureau up to 1958 when he entered <br />private employment in which he was engaged <br />until this appointment on December 4th. We <br />are most fortunate, I think, in having Mr. <br />Greer in this position. He spent some 16 <br />years, I believe it was, something like that, <br />on the Colorado-Big Thompson Project. He is <br />a graduate of Colorado University and most <br />familiar with all our problems in eastern <br />Colorado and western Colorado as wel!." <br /> <br />I MR. STAPLETON: "Would Mr. Greer stand up? Nice to have <br /> you with us. We will be delighted to work <br /> with you in the future." <br />MR. GREER: "Thank you. " <br /> MR. STAPLETON: "What do we hear from Joe? Is he <br /> enjoying Thailand, by the way?" <br />
