<br />
<br />Other Officials and Guests present: Attorney for the District, Charles Beise;

<br />and Frank Haag, Jr,; U, S. Bureau of Reclamation Officials: James Ogilvie,

<br />Wallace Doe; Pueblo Water BOB.rd Officials: Fred Dunlap, Foster Burba; and
<br />five representatives of Arkansas Valley news media.
<br />
<br />President Nichols advised that a quorum was present, and stated the Special
<br />meeting had been called to receive a report from Mr, James Ogilvie, Project
<br />Manager, Fryingpan-Arkansas Project, relative to engineering changes which
<br />are to be made in the Fryingpan Project,
<br />
<br />Mr. Ogilvie stated that in November, 1965, he met with the Board of the Con-
<br />servancy District to discuss the Project, it's progress.. and also to relate the
<br />concern of Bureau Officials that the Project was getting near the Congressional
<br />authorization because of increased costs. He reported at that time that mod-
<br />ifications in the East Slope Phase were being considered to keep the Project
<br />within authorization, and to employ acceptable concepts in the production of
<br />electric power, water storage, and water disiribution. He also stated that it is
<br />customary to give preliminary estimates on total Projects when testifying
<br />before Congress, and to perfect Some modifications when actual engineering
<br />on the Project is underway.
<br />
<br />He also stated that since the authorization of the Project in 1962, a number of
<br />new concepts in electrical energy manufacture have been introduced, such as,
<br />new and larger Plants, using atomic energy, as well as coal, and new hydro-
<br />electric Plants. He stated that the rates on electrical energy from these
<br />Plants are now below the original projections for the Fryingpan-Arkansas Plants,
<br />He also advised that under the original plan, the seven Plants would be small
<br />.in comparison to the new Plants consiructed since 1962.
<br />
<br />Mr. Ogilvie stated that during the past two years, Field Engineers have analyzed
<br />a wide variety of modifications to keep the amount of electrical energy produced,
