OCR Text Appendix C MAIN FEATURES OF THE COLORADO RIVER STORAGE PROJECT On December 15, 1950, E. O. Larson, Regional Director at Salt Lake City for the Bureau of Reclamation, submitted his report on the proposed Colorado River Storage Project (No. 4-8a. 81-1, 1950). The Larson report was sent to the Secretary of the Interior on December 22, 1950, by Michael W. Straus, Commissioner of Reclamation, with the recommendation that it be approved. On January 26, 1951, the report was approved by Oscar L. Chapman, Secretary of the Interior. The features of the proposed Colorado River Storage Project were changed many times before the development was finally signed into law in April 1956. The Reclamation Bureau reports which followed the original 1950 report differed, and the several project bills introduced in the House and Senate differed. The chief variations of the reports and bills are set down here in the order in which they appeared.
