I, <br /> <br />therefore, specifically commend to your consideration the testimony <br /> <br />of my associates and constituents from the Upper Colorado River <br /> <br />Basin who will follow me at this table. They will ask you to in- <br /> <br />crease the budget in a number of cases and will give you detailed <br /> <br />justification in support of their request. Cumulat'ively, these <br /> <br />amounts are minor, but their effect on progress toward mutual goals <br /> <br />is very significant. <br /> <br />I have studied each and everyone of these items and approve <br /> <br />them without reservation. Without going into detail at this time, <br /> <br />I would like to merely mention them for the record; <br /> <br />Construction - Fruitland Mesa Project <br />Construction - Savery-Pot Hook Project <br />Planning San Miguel Project . . <br />Planning - Narrows Unit, Missouri River <br /> <br />.' <br /> <br />$ SOO,OOO <br />500,000 <br />100,000 <br />Basin 500,000 <br /> <br />Of course, we have other on-going programs in Colorado and <br /> <br />elsewhere in the West which have meritorious fund requests in <br /> <br />the President's pending budget.
