Proposal to Divert
Ditch Creek Talked
Proposal to divert water to
Willow Creek from Ditch creek
by means of an impoundment
in the Herrin Meadows area was
discussed at the Monday meet
Ing of the Heppner-Morrow
county chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber has long been
interested in developing a res
ervolr for recreational use in
the area. It was emphasized that
water from the impoundment
could be used to supplement the
tlow to the proposed Willow
Creek reservoir, thereby adding
more tor potential irigation use.
Judge Paul Jones said that
the county has a water right on
Ditch Creek and said that the
county court is giving the mat
ter serious study.
He oaid there are no figures
available on the amount of flow
that could be obtained by the
diversion, but he said that some
"crude water gauges" are being
installed in an effort to obtain
an estimate.
Orville Cutsforth and Glen
Ward, who attended the meet
ing, said that they had gone to
the area Monday morning in
the hope of making a tentative
survey but were turned back by
14 Inches of snow at Cutsforth
Park. Cutsforth is chairman of
the county parks commission
and Ward represents the state
game commission as agent in
mis area.
cutsiortn also revealed an
idea he has for the creation of
a wild area of some 8,000 to 10,-
uuu acres in the Arbuckle Moun
tain and Cutsforth Park areas
and said that he had discussed
the matter with Congressman
Al Ullman. This is the country
mat ne saia is Known as "The
Devil's Half Acre."
Attention to the water and
recreation matters came up fol
lowing a review of last week's
informational meeting in HeoD-
ner on the Willow Creek project
with Judge Jones commenting
on the meeting. I
The Judge emphasized the
need for all interested in the
project to become better public
relations people.
Cutsforth. who said that the
ranchers who are hesitant about
the project "have their side,
too," said that he and others
are considering formation of an
irrigation district to bring wa
