<br />-69- <br />MR. BARRY: Well, I wanted to give Charlie the same opportunity I asked <br />Ron for. Charlie, you're not exactly the expert, but you presented these <br />maps. Would you give me your reaction to the information presented by Battle <br />Mountain at this point on the question of flood plain drainage, etc.. <br />MR. JAQUEZ: Yeah. I'm no expert on this, but I -- we used the maps that <br />were prepared by the Colorado Water Conservation Board. They show -- they're <br />the ones that painted them blue. I didn't. I mean, I copied that. They <br />painted them blue. So I did too. The projection on that is from Battle <br />Mountain's plan. And, I'71 tell you that little arroyo there is not little. <br />We drove up, you can drive up there. <br />MR. HALEPASKA: No, I -- I understand what you're saying is some of those <br />features can, in fact, they're not necessarily small features, they have <br />• simply no drainage above them. It's the catchment area above these features, <br />that is really of engineering concern, and those are readily identifiable on <br />topographic maps, so that while the catchment area fora particuVar feature <br />may be quite large, another one, even though the picture may look, the same, <br />may have a very tiny catchment above it. And, it's along those lines that you <br />engineer these plans. <br />MR. JAQUEZ: I would just like to say that -- and I was just. talking with <br />Jim -- I've -- you know, I live there. And I've walked through there and I've <br />driven through there, and he just told you that one of those trit~utaries runs <br />uphill, and that's bologna. It doesn't. That one on the top, it don't. <br />MR. JOHNSON: I didn't say that. <br />MR. JAQUEZ: Well, he said it drained the other way, which makes it <br />uphill. <br />u <br />
