Show SPECIAL REPORTS 2-C--4O Vol. 35 importance and it it is due to a leaky ditch owned by the Power CJmpany, it requires action by those concerned in order that the situation may be remedied, if it is possible to do 30. Your examination of, and report on, the Power Company's records of flow in their canal will have a bearing on any future action by the Government, and should be made as soon as convenient. In the matter of a new diversion structure for the Indians, this matter was also discussed on the ground by Farrow, Truesdell and Reed, and it was then the consensus of opinion that if a satisfactory arrangement could be made with the Santa Clara Bitch Company, it would be best to make the diversion in conjunction with that company at the site of their present heading, carry the Indian water in the company's ditch for a distance, and then cross the river by means of a syphon to some joint on the Indian ditch where it would be most convenient and best serve the desired purpose. You may, therefore, undertake the making of an agreement with the Ditch Company ana when completed to your satisfaction, submit it here for action by this Oftice. This matter should have early attention so that the present available funds may be used, if an agreement is reached. Sincerely yours, Commissioner. |
