<br />MR. HOOVER: Just to get my own mind clear I made this. <br /> <br />note as to principles and no doubt Mr. Carpenter can check it. <br /> <br />I, the Colorado Rivor basin is to include the entire drainage <br /> <br />together with the Imperial and Coachella Valley, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. CARPEI1TER: And all lands served. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />~lR. HOOVER: Outside of the basin as well~ <br /> <br />MR. CARPENTER: Yes, sir. <br /> <br />l-lR. HOOVER: 2, ~hat the rule of equitable apportionment <br /> <br />shall be applied to the basin; 3, that the basin be divided <br /> <br />into the upper division and lower division, the point of <br /> <br />demarkation being Lee's Ferry below the mouth of Paria River; <br /> <br />4, that the lower division shall be apportioned 36% of the <br /> <br />average flow during ten years at Lee's Ferry. <br /> <br />MR. CARPENTER: ,An amount equivalent to 36% of the <br /> <br />Yuma flow. Not 36% of Loe's Ferry flow. An amount equivalent <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />to 36% of the established flow of Yuma. <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: I was wondering,. just for a short consider- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ation, what does that work back to at Lee's Ferry? Under this <br /> <br />plan it works back to some automatic fieures, doosn't it? <br /> <br />MR. CARPENTER: I don't remembor nO"I, I am not prepared <br /> <br />to say just hOll that proportion runs to loe' s Ferry. The <br /> <br />average annual,flow through a period of ten years at Lee's <br /> <br />FerrY Should be equivalent to 36% of the established average <br />annua:lflo\'1 at Yuma. . <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />MR. CA1D\'CLL,:. D.uring the same years ? <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />]VIR. CARPENTER: No, "Ie have already established the <br /> <br />annual at YU111a over a 20 year period. <br /> <br />llth-S.F. <br />21 <br /> <br />29 <br />
