The 39 <br /> <br />million plus is equal to 75% of the total land area which is practically <br /> <br />an impossibility. The Bureau projects usually sverage 50% of total project <br /> <br />area as irrigable and these are picked areas. I certainly don't want this <br /> <br />situation to happen in Colorado. <br /> <br />It will not be possible to complete the entire subrecon. in Eastern Colorado <br /> <br />before the scheduled date for the Interim Report. However, this work could <br /> <br />be continued past the Interim Report date and the completed county maps used <br /> <br />as data-in-support for the final report. This information would then be <br /> <br />available for future planning needs. <br /> <br />..?O$3 <br />
