The ERC re- <br />port was assembled very quickly; and, although your October 30, 1987, letter <br />was included, your letter of January 8, 1988, was mistakenly omitted, I deep- <br />ly regret this error and will do whatever is possible to correct it. <br /> <br />We have stopped distribution of the report so that your comments can be includ- <br />ed as an addendum to the reports yet to be mailed out. In addition, we will <br />send a copy of your comments to all those who have already received the report, <br />with a request that they include it in their copy of the report. <br /> <br />I want to assure you that, although your comments "slipped through the crack" <br />of our assembling and printing process, they did not escape the attention of <br />the executives who are managing the study, nor those at the policy-making lev- <br />el who will control the outcome. The comments of the Lower Basin States have <br />been given the full weight they deserved and will continue to receive that <br />attention. <br /> <br />I will be in the Los Angeles area on August 17 and 18 and would like to take <br />that opportunity to meet with you to discuss the GCES. As my plans become <br />more certain, I will call you to see if a meeting can be arranged. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />11FFORD I.
