The Secretary of the Interior with the <br /> <br />concurrence of the States and other interests at that time felt that the <br /> <br />need for an actual determination of 602(a) storage was not critical until <br /> <br />additional depletions in the Upper Basin or diversions to the Central Arizona - <br /> <br />Project had taken place. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />J~ /9cq tl970 +~ q'8~;?I'C'b:.-~ /;lacL cJ~ ~ <br />a~<r~) t10~ V1-1 1'197- <1E?- 9ilk:rfb.leo,....,~ <br />~~~,...,o~~ kc:cu.-v>e.of ~ <br />~~#"DJe/O'Y/ee. 10/ Cl..,cq u.e~.aJ. 10 t" 5 ~.r~ <br /> <br />. , <br /> <br />," <br />
