<br />Upper, Colorado Continuinll; As,essment
<br />
<br />Since the Upper Colorado River Basin area has such a high potential
<br />for development of synthetic 'fuels, which would substantially add
<br />to pressures on the area's wa,t61r resources, the Council staff is
<br />exploring the need to maintain a continuing assessment .process in the
<br />area. The process would encompass "Section 13" assessments as well
<br />as other activities to provide needed coordination and timely compre-
<br />hensive reporting.
