<br />001303 <br /> <br />The wild and Scenic Rivers Act (P.L. 90-542 as <br />amended) designated the segment of the Yampa River <br />within the boundaries of the monument for potential <br />addition to the national wild and scenic rivers <br />system. The Bureau of Outdoor Recreation has <br />initiated and is the Federal lead agency on a <br />study of that river segment to determine its <br />suitability for inclusion in the national system. <br />Congress has directed that the study be completed <br />and the report submitted no later than October 2, <br />1979." <br /> <br />2) By letter dated August 13, 1976,BOR <br /> <br />requested (by 20 questions) information from the <br /> <br />River District on proposed upstream developments, <br /> <br />stating, in part, as follows: <br /> <br />"The study team for the Yampa and Green wild and <br />Scenic Rivers Study has determined that the Yampa <br />River within Dinosaur National Monument qualifies <br />as a wild river area according to the criteria <br />specified in the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, P.L. <br />90-542. The outstandingly remarkable qualities <br />identified in and along this segment of the Yampa <br />are its scenic, recreational, geologic, and fish <br />values. <br /> <br />Pursuant to Principles and Standards for Planning <br />Water and Related Land Resources, wild and scenic <br />river s.tudies must display the beneficial and <br />adverse effects of alternative plans for the use <br />of the Nation's water and land resources in <br />separate accounts. These accounts must show the <br />beneficial and adverse effects of these plans on <br />national economic development, environmental <br />quality, regional development, and social well- <br />being. "(Emphasis supplied). <br /> <br />The River District responded thereto on September 28, <br /> <br />1976, in an eleven page letter, detailing information <br /> <br />-6- <br />
