<br />NEW MEXICO INTERST ATE STREAM COMMISSION <br /> <br />Detailed Comments <br />on the <br /> <br />... ...~ .............'1""1 <br />January .kJ, ~VV"', <br />Navajo Reservoir Operations Advanced Draft Environmental Impact Statement (ADElS) <br /> <br />March I I, 2002 <br /> <br />SUMMARY <br /> <br />Line I. Replace "implement" with "meet". <br /> <br />Line 4. Replace "while enabling future" with "and in enabling". <br /> <br />Line 5. Replace "court" with "Supreme Court". This change is consistent with the goals of the San <br />Juan River Basin Recovery Implementation Program (SJRBRIP). <br /> <br />Line 6. Insert "would maintain the authorized purposes of the Navajo Unit and" following <br />"Reclamation" . <br /> <br />Line 8. Delete "At the same time,". <br /> <br />Lines 9-10. Delete the two lines in their entirety. <br /> <br />Line 25. Replace "." with "or a reasonable alternative." The Fish and Wildlife Service has indicated <br />that the Flow Recommendations criteria are not necessarily inviolate. <br /> <br />Lines 25-26. Replace "Reclamation would maintain authorized Navajo Unit purposes while <br />enabling future water development to proceed." with "The Navajo Unit would continue to provide <br />for further water development in the San Juan River Basin consistent with its authorized purposes." <br />The sentence as written appears to incorrectly relegate the development and use of compact <br />apportionments to something other than an authorized purpose of the Navajo Unit, or to an additional <br />or secondary purpose. <br /> <br />Line 41. Replace "have changed" with "were modified to accomodate research as to the effects of <br />different streamflow rates and patterns on endangered fish species and their habitat in the San Juan <br />River downstream from Farmington". <br /> <br />Line 45. Replace "for the fish" with "beneficial to endangered fish and to operate Navajo Dam". <br /> <br />Line 60. Replace "court" with "Supreme Court". This change reflects the actual language from the <br />SJRBRIP Program Document. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />00748 <br />
