<br />266 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />limited to all perfected rights; and one thinG I want to ask is whether <br /> <br /> <br />or not the reS':lrvoir in the canyon is still desired. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. HOOVIlR: Vie have some expression that that might be helpful. I. <br /> <br /> <br />have a telegram from the Imperial. Valley Association that just came in <br /> <br /> <br />which shows what is goinG on, (reads telegram) Such rights as the lovrer <br /> <br /> <br />states have in the matter only apply to maintenance of the lov! vlater flow, <br /> <br /> <br />it does not apply to the creation of storage of 9 million acre foot. The <br /> <br /> <br />way to approach it is for us to make as flat a statement as we can to the <br /> <br /> <br />present rights. The difficulty lies in inchoate rights and the fact that <br /> <br /> <br />these rights are likely to be dated as vesting at the time they :are filed. <br /> <br /> <br />We must at least make a declaration about perfected rights. <br /> <br /> <br />DJIl. DAVIS: Is there any differc)Jlce in the term "perfected rights" <br /> <br /> <br />and "'beneficial use"? <br /> <br /> <br />!.lR. DAVIS: My thollght was this. I am meroly talking, you understand, <br /> <br /> <br />pr.osent rights to the beneficial' use of water shall not be ir.lpaired. <br /> <br /> <br />~lR. HOOVER: I think you have a useful basis there. The rights to <br /> <br /> <br />the beneficial use of water of the Colorado River System now enjoyed shall <br /> <br /> <br />remain unimpaired Qy: this compact. <br /> <br /> <br />1m, CARPENTER: Isnft a right enjoyed, 'even though it isn't perfected? <br /> <br />'It <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />.. <br />
