Q I will ask you, Mr. Reed, if you know, or if there is at this time any irrigation project which contemplated the irrigation from the San Juan River of any of the lands of the Navajo Indians in the State of Utah? A No, sir. Q Or of the Navajo Reservation in northern Arizona on the San Juan River? A Not in Arizona. There is some in New Mexico. Q And from what point is it proposed that that be irrigated? A The head- gate of the canal is where the geologic fault there crosses the San Juan, known as the Hog Back. That is, perhaps, five or six miles east of the Ship Rock School Agency. That is small project now under develop-ment, about 4000 acres, contemplated to ultimately reach about 7000 acres. |
