Construction goes ahead on the administration and dispatching building for the center. A major contract was awarded on May 17, 1963, for construction of a multi-channel microwave radio system for supervision and control of the CRSP power system from the Power Operations Office. No on-site construction was started during the 1963 construction season, but manufacture of the necessary equipment is underway. D. AUTHORIZED PARTICIPATING PROJECTS Of the eleven participating projects authorized by Public Law 485, five are in Colorado, one is in New Mexico, twoi are in Utah, and three are located in Wyoming. Participating projects will consume water of the Upper Colorado River System for irrigation, municipal and industrial purposes, and will participate in the use of revenues in the Basin Fund to help repay the costs of irrigation features beyond the ability of the water users to repay. Since 1956 when the original Colorado River Storage Project Act was signed into law, P. L. 485 has been amended once to include additional participating projects. This amendment was by Public Law 87-483 (76 Stat. 96), which authorized the construction, operation, and maintenance of the Navajo Indian Irrigation Project and the initial stage of the San Juan-Chama Project as participating projects of the Colorado River Storage Project. Although the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project is not a full-fledged participating project of the Colorado River Storage Project because it does not participate in the use of Basin Fund revenues, it could be called a "limited" participating project in the Upper Basin development plan because it does use water apportioned to the Upper Basin by the Colorado River Compact and to the State of Colorado by the Upper Colorado River Basin Compact. This project was authorized by P. L. 87-500 (76 Stat. 389), which was signed by the President August 16, 1962. A brief description of each of the authorized participating projects and the present status of its construction or investigations follows: 53 |
