The depletion may <br />affect four endangered species of fish in the Colorado River. <br />Bowie Resources Limited hereby commits to implement the <br />conservation measures the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service believes <br />are necessary to mitigate the affect the depletion may have on the <br />four endangered species. The conservation measures include a one <br />time contribution of $1,588.2T~to the National Fish and Wildlife <br />Foundation. The amount of the contribution is calculated by <br />multiplying the estimated depletion of 121.8 acre feet by a <br />contribution factor of $13.04^per acre foot of depletion. <br />Sincerely, ~ (Z~~~p <br />~"~ <br />Jim Stover, P.E. <br />Consulting Engineer <br />cc: Wm.
