As <br /> <br />7 previously described, the first stage would include the Juniper <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />Dam, Reservoir, and Powerplant, irrigation of the 9,000-acre <br /> <br />Maybell-Sunbeam area, recreation developments at Juniper Reser- <br /> <br />SI <br /> <br />voir, and fish and wildlife on the reservoir and on the Yampa <br /> <br />River. This first stage appears to be justified by,itself or <br /> <br />in combination with other alternative plans. ,Besides, it is the <br /> <br />first logical step ih construction of the Juniper Project, and the <br /> <br />lands now estimated to be suitable for irrigation development appear <br /> <br />to be fairly evaluated Ln this reconnaissance study, a1t.ho"."h a modest <br /> <br />reduct [on in acreage may n:: S1! 1 t when more detailed St11d rl-~':; ;doe made. <br /> <br />25 <br />
