The planning activities were transferred to the Natural <br />Resources Board in 1951 and project-type planning has been continuously <br />conducted since that time. Wyolningls participation in comprehensive <br />river basin planning began in a small way "ith cooperation in Federal <br />river basin planning notably in the Missouri River Basin. <br /> <br />A massive State effort in comprehensive water planning began when <br />the 1967 legislature gave the State Engineer the responsibility and <br />the authority to initiate the planning efforts. The impctus for this <br />action was the growing concern for the Nation' s '\nlter rf'.SDurces among <br />neighboring States and in the Federal Government and the crea tion of <br />the Water Resources Council with its Title III matching funds avail- <br />able for comprehensive planning. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The basic objectives of the Wyoming State Water Plan are five: <br />(1) To point out how the "later supply for existing uses in Wyoming <br />can be stabilized or better support the existing uses; (2) to point <br />out how water resources can be used to stimulate and support the <br />futur" development of I,yoming; (3) to point out hOI-l Ivyoming's decreed <br />or co.npncted share of int:erstate Haters can be fully utilized bene- <br />ficially; (4) to point out these portions of decreed or compacted <br />interstate "aters ,,,hich a"e beyond the State's share can be benefi- <br />cially utilized while they are "ithin Hyoming; and (5) to develop <br />data criteria and rationale pertaining to Wyoming's interstate 'tvilters <br />still undivided for desirable changes and existing compacts or decrees <br />that might be arrived at by mutual agreement with other parties to <br />these compacts or decrees. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />He indicated that th" comprehensive "ater planning effort in <br />the State of Wyoming "as adequately funded from several sources. <br />The organizational and administrative chores have been completed <br />and next year should sho" productive results in th" comprehensive <br />water field in the State. <br /> <br />"t. <br /> <br />,. <br /> <br />The Nebraska State \-later Plan and Its Relationship to Compreh"nsive <br />Planning <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Warren Fairchild, Executive Secretary of the Nebraska Soil <br />and Water Conservation Commission, told th" Committee that the <br /> <br />:''-':'<<.:1 <br />" .... <br />-..:-<..'..-;.' <br /> <br />., ...... <br />r....:; '-'~";" <br />~ '. .:..
