A proposed feasibility report is scheduled for <br /> <br />completion in F.Y. 1966. <br /> <br />Plan fonnulation studies, water supply studies, and agricultural <br /> <br />economy studies are in progress on the BLUESTONE PROJECT. A proposed <br /> <br />feasibility report is scbeduled for completion in F.Y. 1967. <br /> <br />On the UPPER GUNNISON PROJECT, collection of agricultural, economic, <br /> <br />and irrigation data has been completed on representative farms selected <br /> <br />for evaluation in determining the scope of the feasibility studies to be <br /> <br />undertaken. Conclusions reached from the data obtained are that the <br /> <br />scope of the feasibility investigations should be limited to supplying a <br /> <br />supplemental water supply to bolster the economy of the existing farm <br /> <br />units and through bringing in a amall amount of neY lands for irrigation <br /> <br />that can be incorporated into existing units. The scope also should <br /> <br />include feasible municipal and industrial water supplies, related recre- <br />I <br />ation and f'ish and vildJ.ife developnenta, and such pover developnent as <br /> <br />may be found practical. <br /> <br />Plan fonnulation studies, engineering surveys, drainage studies, <br /> <br />and water supply studies are in progress on the GRMlD MESA PROJECT. <br /> <br />Arrangements are underway preparatory to negotiating a contract to secure <br /> <br />aerial topography of the project area. <br /> <br />Preparation of design data and writing of the plan formulation and <br /> <br />water supply appendixes are in progress on the modified plan for the <br /> <br />YELLOW JACKET PROJECT. Cooperative studies with other Federal agencies <br /> <br />are continuing. <br /> <br />Advance Planning <br />On the FRUITIAND MESA PROJECT control surveys required for the <br />aerial mapping contract (negotiated earlier) vere in progress. <br /> <br />5 <br />
