<br />Lower Basin states is consistent with Colorado's position. The proposal deserves our <br />support. <br /> <br />But we should not entertain any proposal to market Colorado's future by marketing our <br />water. We must stick to our strategy of protecting Colorado's rights under the Compact. <br />!fwe deviate, we will throwaway all the protection the Compact affords us, that was <br />carefully negotiated for Colorado and has been guarded by our leaders for 75 years. To <br />risk the loss of the protection of the Colorado River Compact would be folly. This is <br />especially true now that California is making an effort to reduce its water use and with the <br />advent of Lower Basin water banking. That would be irresponsible to both present <br />Coloradans and future generations. <br />
