<br /> <br />policy and it's not finalized by Regional Counsel ~et. We recerttly <br />reviewed an old moratorium that we had up there on housing since <br />back about 1971. We refused to support new constructed housing on <br />the North Shore primaril~ because those districts up there had been <br />using onsite disposa~.' Recently the Tahoe Truckee Sanitation Plant <br />has been on line. Now with that disposal plant in existence and the <br />. fact that we may have a Federal policy in place, we're about to re- <br />examine that moratorium, Third, EPA designated a sole source aquifer <br />out in Guam, which I think was probably the third country as I recall. <br />We are about to enter into agreement with EPA, the interesting thing <br />is that we supported some public housing back in 75 or 76, right on <br />top that sole source. We recognized it at the time but didn't have <br />the power to stop that kind of thing. But I see at least in the <br />future we are going to try and stay away from that. <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />Department of Transportation <br /> <br />Mr. Lawrence J. Harrison, Regional Hydraulic Engineer, Federal <br />Highway Administration, Denver, Colorado. Keeping in line, the <br />Department of Transportation has a knee jerk or reactive response in <br />regard to water resource and related land resource planning and that <br />sort of thing. The brief report that. members have been sent really <br />refers to an Executive Order 11988 which is entitled "Flood Plain <br />Management" and addresses what we view as an appropriate response <br />policy related and the basis for it of course is the Executive Order. <br />This replaced, as I'm sure all of us know, the Executive Order 11296 <br />which deals with Flood Plain Hazards, and we have noted it in the <br />Federal Register what we would like to do and response time has been <br />given and I think that's closed out as of less than a week ago, some- <br />thing like that, So as I say, the report that I have submitted merely <br />gives an idea of what we propose in that regard and we will of course, <br />mak~ appropriate revisions, etc., depending on the response that we <br />received from any interested parties. For report as distributed, <br />see PART C - ATTACHMENTS. <br /> <br />Department of Agriculture <br /> <br />Mr. Franc1s C, H. Lurn, State Conservationist, Soil Conservation <br />Service, Davis, California. Mr, Cha1rman, I have submitted a rather <br />lenthly report to the Executive Secretary covering a multitude of <br />agencies and study areas in different states and I propose that I do <br />not highlight th1s thing but that it be published, as we usually do <br />in the minutes, and that the members read the report therein. For <br />report as distributed, see PART C - ATTACHMENTS. <br /> <br />State of Colorado <br /> <br />Mr Laren D, Morrill, Deputy Director, Colorado Water Conservation <br />Board, Denver, Colorado, C~lorado's report was mailed out. I might <br />highlight just a couple of things in it. There are now actually under <br />construction two Bureau of Reclamation Projects in Colorado. The <br />Dolores Project and the Dallas Project, they have been a long time <br /> <br />B-20 <br />
