N. Judd, general man ager, said. , Decision Waited Testings and surveys of the Lake Creek site were made about a year ago and have been in the reclamation office since, awaiting a decision. Another object of the engin eers was to outline plans and commence work on a compre hensive survey of the entire Rogue river watershed to de termine if additional arid lands could be irrigated at a reason able cost. This survey Is being made jointly by the federal gov ernment, the state, and Jackson and Josephine counties. The two counties have entered into contract for the reclamation bureau to make the survey. Forester In Charge The survey will be in charge of Project Engineer Forester, who will make his headquarters at Grants Pass for the present The Merlin district will be sur veyed first, the Applegate and Illinois valleys next, and then the Sams valley-Beagle district in Jackson county, along with any other area advanced. Army engineers are also aid ing in the survey, Judd said. They are making surveys and gathering data on cost and prac ticability of dams and reservoirs for flood control on the Apple- gate and Rogue rivers. It thought the dams might serve the joint purpose of flood con trol and irrigation water stor age. DAVID HOLMES IS NAMED TO AID IN Gov.
