Why would <br />one sector be singled out like this? <br /> <br />Page 111-44, Tahle II1-I2, Why are different categories shown for Archuleta Connty, Co, <br />Ihan for the other counties. For meaningrul comparison, the economic metrics should be <br />the same for all counties. If some data are missing, they should he described. For <br />example, San Juan Co, N~I data are much more sununarized. tfthat is all the levellhat is <br />availahle, then sununarize the other counties similarly to allow for easy comparison. <br /> <br />Page 111-45, Populalion, No actual population numbers are repolled, <br /> <br />Page III-45, Tourism. Nice discussion, but this is an economics section. This is the <br />seclor that is proportedly most impacted, yet there is no quantification of its value or <br />magnitude. <br /> <br />Page 111-45, Agriculture. Does "'is include NI1P?

What are "'e lop five <br />industries referenced? <br /> <br />Page II1-46. Table II1-13. No source referenced for this data. Agriculture seems <br />seriously inconsistent with numbers on Page 111-45 Is this the gross sales, retail sales <br />problem? <br /> <br />Page 111-47, Agriculture. Is this 1977 or 1997 data? Different melric used here than for <br />other counties. We now have earnings represented rather than retail sales or gross sales. <br /> <br />Page 111-47, Jobs and Income. The oil and gas industry is not mentioned here. <br /> <br />Page 111.49, Table 111.14. No agriculture reported.

Are fishing and rafting guides the only ones interviewed? <br />It seems a very hiased method of assessing the overall economic impacts of this project, <br />basing it on the opinions (without data) of the Iwo groups mosl vocally opposed to Ihe <br />recovery program and changes in flows in the basin. <br /> <br />Page 111-48, lines 1395-1400. What are the assumptions used in the implan model? <br />
