SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thur.day, Auguit IB, 1958 Waler Experiment Involving Oregon Drainage Outlined Salem OI.R) An experi ment in inter-related uses of wa ter which would involve the en tire drainage basin of an Oregon stream was outlined by Gov. Elmo Smith to the Natural Re sources committee here yester day. The proposal, if carried out, would be the only known test of its kind in the United States, according to members of the Wa ter Resources boad which has been particularly interested in this venture. The board has tak en the initiative in the proposed study. The natural resources com mittee, made up of representa tives of departments and com missions concerned with water uses, authorized Gov. Smith to name a technical committee to develop a detailed outline of procedure including recommen dation of a western Oregon stream for the outdoor labora tory study. Would Determine Usage As a partial approach to the problem of scientific stream management, the governor point ed out that this test stream pro gram would be a means of de termining how Oregon may ach ieve multiple-purpose use of its water resources. "Many studies have been made relative to single uses of water, but little is known of the rela tionships of one use to the oth er," Gov. Smith said. He added that the proposed experiment would be in an area in which for esters, engineers, fishery biolo gists, soil conservationists and others could all test their ideas for the river basin. 5 BIG FREE PARKING LOTS Ask About Extended Free Parking for Other Downtown Shopping (EmaDOTTEIIBM.
