Beneficial Use Said Chief Aim Of Water Board The maximum beneficial use of water is the object of the state water resources board, ac cording to Don Lane, who spoke before the Siskiyou chapter of theSociety of American forest ers' meeting last Friday even ing. In addition, to Lane, who Is secretary of the board, Bill Jess, chairman of the Jackson county water resources board spoke to the group on the results of a recently completed survey of the Rogue River area. Jess told the group that sev eral subcommittees were set up by the Jackson resources group, which was appointed by the county court. The sub-commit tees' reports were compiled into a booklet which will be placed into evidence at the hearing the state board is holding at the Jackson county court house on Dec. 11. The Jackson county committee and its subcommittees are to give the local point of view to the state committee to help in determining a middle ground in distributing the water available, Jess said. He told the group that all subcommittees agreed that: (1) The Rogue River is a major resource of Southern Oregon and (2) the Rogue basin is not a primative area. Lane said the growing pres sures for use of the available wSter caused creation of the state board which has the power to establish a state policy for water distribution, an agency to resolve disputes and power to enforce decisions. Lane told the Foresters that the demand for water was in creasing in every type of re quirement in the state. He said the average use of water per person in Oregon during peak season was 350 gallons per day while the national average was only 150 per day. Another job of the board is to decide what the future needs of water are going to be in Oregon, Lane said. He said the state board was setting up the county boards to act as a local representative.
