<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />O~ r....' 1 <br />~~~..... <br /> <br />CHAPl'ER I <br /> <br />GENERAL DISCUSSIONS <br /> <br />formulate and appraise possible plans of development on the basis of <br />current economic criteria. Field work on land classification and proj- <br />ect features consisted primarily of inspection of previous surveys. <br />Canal lines were projected with the aid of altimeter surveys, aerial <br />pictures, and Geological Survey topographic quadrangle sheets. A rough <br />topographic survey was made of Perry Draw Dam and Reservoir sites. <br />Local farmers and agricultural officials were interviewed regarding <br />farming operations in the area. Office "WOrk included studies of water <br />supply, power development, agricultural economy, and financial analysis; <br />designs and cost estimates of works included in the various development <br />plans considered; conq:>arative studies of the various plans; and prepara- <br />tion of this report. Essentially all of the work so far acconq:>lished <br />is of a reconnaissance degree of accuracy. Supporting data for the <br />estimates and studies made are on file in the Durango Development Office <br />of the Bureau of Reclamation. <br /> <br />7 <br />
