The Colorado River Water Conservation District <br />addressed.this concern by passing a resolution on October 15. This <br />resolution states their intention to apply for an enhancement grant <br />if it. is determined by the Division of Wildlife, the Water <br />Conservation Board, and the River District that the potential for <br />a stream fishery exists. <br /> <br />On November 20, 1991 the wildlife Commission approved the attached <br />resolution about the mitigation grant/mitigation plan for the <br />proposed Muddy Creek Reservoir in Grand County. The Wildlife <br />Commission and the River District agree on this resolution and the <br />mitigation plan referred to. <br /> <br />I am sending the resolution and mitigation plan to you with a <br />request that the Water Conservation Board adopt the plan as the <br />official state position on the mitigation action required of the <br />applicant. Adoption by the Board will clear the way for the <br />mitigation grant to be made to the River District pursuant to H.B. <br />1158. When the applicant and the wildlife Commission agree on the <br />mitigation plan, H.B. 1158 stipulates that the Water Conservation <br />Board shall adopt the plan as the official state position. <br /> <br />PDO:JFT:cr <br />enclosure <br /> <br />cc: Caskey <br />Goodman <br />Monahan <br /> <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
