The figures which have heretofore been presented to his Honorable Court are grossly inadequate due to the failure of the United States, as Trustee, to expeditiously resolve the boundary disputes and make the necessary soil surveys and land classifications. See section entitled, "Refusal to Establish Boundaries On the Indian Reservations, a Corollary to Interior's Policy to Preclude Exercise of Indian 'Present Perfected Rights.' " There is possible overlapping which should be resolted by an Order from this Court." On the other hand, the Tribe's Motion for Leave to Intervene, dated December 23, 1978, contains the following tabulation for "omitted" lands: Yuma 5,282.32 irrigable acres Chemehuevi 2,367.32 irrigable acres Cocopah 1,175.27 irrigable acres Colorado River 38,769.16 irrigable acres Fort Mohave 3,550.34 irrigable acres Parker Townsite 108.85 irrigable acres 51,253.26 irrigable acres |
