<br />,132 <br /> <br />132 <br /> <br />There are reservoirs in Colorado and Utah that Nill have to be <br />cons,tructed ultimately. That is a matter for our territory to <br />bring about because the benefits will rvn primarily to our country. <br />MR. NORVIEL: It is not intended, of course, to assume that any <br />. other State is particularly interested in this, but as you have <br />expressed yourself that the lower states are practically at their <br />full development, further reclamation development is arrested now. <br />. MR. McCLURE: Do you mean Mr. Carpenter that this will put a stop <br />to construction elsewhere? <br />MR. CARPENTE.R: It provents allocation until that rese'rvoir is <br />constructed. <br />MR. NORVIEL: We might add without objection a word "may" which <br />would lake the clause read: "Provided that adequate storage may <br />. ,be created at one of the major dam sites in the Grand Canyon." <br />MR. CARPBNTER: Your maj or dam site it would require a year <br />and a half running constantly 1dthout any vlithdraHal to fUl that <br />reservoir. vlhether there are one or a dozen reservoirs, the effect <br />vlould be the same. <br />MR. HOOVER: We revolve round and round this point. Is there <br /> <br /> <br />interstate priority of utilization or is there not? <br /> <br /> <br />iiJR. .CARPENTER: I thought this statement covered that: <br /> <br /> <br />"That the construction of any and all reservoirs or other vlOrks <br /> <br /> <br />upon th8lower river shall in no mariner arrest or interfere with <br />the. subsequent deyelopment of the territory of any of the upper <br />states or the use of the up-ter therein and said vlOrks upon the <br />10vrer river shall not have, assert or claim any prior or preferred <br />right or title to the use of the waters of said stream as against <br /> <br />the upper states."
