Show of the Interior is directed to give priority to completion of planning reports on twenty-five projects. Brief descriptions of these projects are to be found in the Commission's Eighth Annual Report. The Bureau of Reclamation, so far as limited funds and personnel will permit, is continuing its studies on these projects. Considerable progress in investigations has been accomplished during the past year. The San Juan-Chama, Navajo Indian Irrigation and the Savery-Pot Hook Projects have been found feasible and legislation has been introduced in Congress to authorize their construction as participating projects of the Colorado River Storage Project. Other projects in the priority-for-planning category are in various stages of detailed planning for feasibility reports or preliminary investigations for reconnaissance reports. 1. Congressional Authorization Pending NEW MEXICO a. Navajo Indian Irrigation Project The Navajo Indian Irrigation project will be in Northwestern New Mexico along the south side of the San Juan River in the Farmington-Shiprock area. The project will irrigate 110,630 acres of new land on the present or extended Navajo Indian Reservation. Although this project is directly dependent upon the Navajo Storage Unit (currently under construction) of the Colorado River Storage Project, Public Law 485 states that irrigation costs that will be beyond the capability of the Indian irrigators to repay shall be nonreimbursable, and irrigation costs that are within the capability of the lands to repay shall be deferred so long as the lands remain in Indian ownership. b. San Juan-Chama Project The potential San Juan-Chama project is located in Southcentral Colorado and Northcentral New Mexico in the San Juan River, Rio Grande and Canadian River Basins. This project will divert waters from the headwaters of the San Juan River into the Rio Grande Basin for the purpose of providing supplemental water for existing irrigation projects and for municipal and industrial uses in the Albuquerque, New Mexico metropolitan area. Although water for the diversion will be collected from tributaries of the San Juan River in both Colorado and New Mexico, all water will be used in 69 |
