<br />",ooi's";s <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. . <br /> <br />of 'the proposed legislation, carefully reviewed the bill. <br />. . <br />I <br />Based on comments by the California cities, communities, and <br /> <br /> <br />counties along the Colorado River and California's Colorado <br /> <br /> <br />River water and power users, California's representative <br /> <br /> <br />developed modifications to the propo<,;ed leg islation that <br /> <br /> <br />would meet the concerns of those entities, while maintaining <br /> <br /> <br />the purpose of the bill. <br /> <br /> <br />The Colorado River Basin state representatives <br /> <br /> <br />considered the amendments proposed by California and reached <br /> <br /> <br />agreement on a further draft of the legislation during a <br /> <br /> <br />meeting on January 9,1985, in San Diego, California. All of <br /> <br /> <br />the representatives were concerned that the pressures for <br /> <br /> <br />continuing developments along the lower Colorado River could <br /> <br /> <br />result in further encroachments into the Colorado River <br /> <br /> <br />floodway. They concluded that the proposed bill would <br /> <br /> <br />provide a tool to help the states and local governmental <br /> <br /> <br />agencies guide future developments along the river so that <br /> <br /> <br />they would not encroach upon the floodway. <br /> <br /> <br />Accordingly, the Colorado River Basin state <br /> <br /> <br />representatives declared their support for the enactment of <br /> <br /> <br />the proposed legislation. The representatives from the seven <br /> <br /> <br />states unanimously passed and signed a "Resolution Supporting <br /> <br /> <br />Enactment of the Colorado River Floodway Protection Act", as <br /> <br /> <br />redrafted during the January 9 meeting. The redraft of the <br /> <br /> <br />legislation developed by the Colorado River Basin states <br /> <br /> <br />formB the basis for House Bill H.R. 1246, now introduced by <br /> <br /> <br />Congressmen Richard Cheney and George Miller. <br /> <br /> <br />-12- <br />
