<br />ANNUAL BUDGET
<br />
<br />In accordance with Colorado State Statutes, the
<br />members of the Board of Directors, working through
<br />their respective Committees and the Staff, carefully
<br />prepared a we!l defined Proposed Budget for 1975,
<br />based upon actual expenditures in previous years,
<br />anticipated requirements for the coming year, and
<br />estimated income. Copies of the PrrJposed Budget
<br />were then widely distributed throughout the District,
<br />and Legal Notices published in the newspapers of gen-
<br />eral circulation in the nine Counties in advance of the
<br />Official Budget Hearing. The Formal Hearing was
<br />held Septemher 19, 1974, .t 1:30 p.m. at the District
<br />Offices, 905 Highway 50 West, Pueblo, Colorado.
<br />
<br />WATER LITIGATION AND LEGISLATION
<br />
<br />During the past seven years, members of the Colo-
<br />rado General Assembly have passed a number of
<br />Water Bills relating to Water Resource Management
<br />throughout the State, with particular emphasis on
<br />water supplies in the Arkansas Valley. The South-
<br />eastern Colorado Water Conservancy District, created
<br />under Colurado State Statutes, has a direct interest in
<br />all Water Legislation and Water Statutes, and in the
<br />administration of Water Laws pa5sed by the General
<br />Assembly. It i5 necessary, therefore, that the Board
<br />rA Directors authorize Legal Counsel for the District
<br />to review Applications Filed~ to determine not only
<br />their effect on decrees owned by the District, and the
<br />ultimate operation of the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project,
<br />but also the over-all water regime within and without
<br />the confines of the District as set forth in the Statutes
<br />authorizing the creation of the District. The Boarrl
<br />of Directors, after a thorough discussion of various
<br />Applications Filed in Water Courts, authorized Legal
<br />Counsel to repre5ent the District in appropriate Courts
<br />of Law. Representatives from the District also spend
<br />time during the Annual Session of the Colorado Gen-
<br />eral AS5embly working with memhers of the Legisla-
<br />ture on Amendrnents to Colorado Water Statutes, to
<br />help make current Water Laws more manageable, and
<br />rnore in tune with the times. The Directors are anxious
<br />that water litigation be held to an absolute minimum.
<br />while at the same time assuring the protection of
<br />the rights of decree holders under Colorado Water
<br />Doctrine.
<br />
<br />MUNICIPAL. INDUSTRIAL CONDUITS
<br />
<br />When the Congress of the United States author-
<br />ized the construction of the Fryingpan-Arkansas Proj-
<br />ect in 1962, they provided that two !:'eparate Municipal..
<br />Industrial Conduits could be built after it was deter-
<br />mined the entities could not construct the Conduits
<br />themselves. Studies were subseq!J.ently made by the
