0 Complete Report Of Water Group Given Th following over-all reDort of the Jackson county water re sources ommittee will be pre sented with sub-committee re ports to the public during a county-wide meeting Monday at 8 p.m. in the courthouse. The same report will be pre sented the state water resourceiy board at 8 p.m. Dec. 11 in the county courthouse. This, too, is a public meeting. Members of the Jackson coun ty water resources committee and the members of the sub-committees, representing the various phases of water use in the coun ty, appreciate greatly this oppor tunity to present their views on the future use of surplus and un appropriated water in the coun ty. The views expressed by the committee and in the reports of the sub-committees are based on studies made by the more than 110 committee members. These studies utilized the facts avail able and were made with the knowledge that optimum use of the county's water will to a large extent depend on the findings and recommendations of this board and on the findings and recommendations of the Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army as im plemented by the state legisla ture and the congress of the United States. The studies of the sub-committees, although direct ed toward a particular water use, were made with an appreciation of the necessary multiple use of water, and with the recognition thai any subsequently developed water use plan must also, in all probability, be a compromise; since "ideal" conditions of water use for each interest are, for the most part, not campatible. Fur thermore, although the reports are for Jackson county, the com mittees fully appreciate the ne cessity of a basin-wide approach to such a study. Findings Outlined The Jackson county water re sources committee with the unan imous agreement of the sub-committee chairmen submits its find ings as follows: 1. The Rogue river and its tributaries are a major resource of Jackson county. 2. There exist at the present time certain problems associated with the Rogue river system which demand solution: a. Floods flooding presents a threat to life and is very cost ly in terms of property dam age. b. Threat to the fishery in adequate minimum flows, in creased fishing pressure, pol lution, and floods threaten the maintenance of the sports fishery even at its present level. c. Pollution certain tribu taries present a potential men ace to health, and an unques tionable loss to property, es- tb-s basin's water will solve. Increasing popula- thetic, and recreational values because of man introduced substances and turbidity, and inadequte minimum flows. Problem in Watershed d. Erosion less than the op timum in watershed manage ment practices has resulted in erosion in certain of the moun tain segments of the watershed and an increasing stream chan nel erosion problem in the valley lands. 3. There are other problems of the basin, both now existant and foreseeable, which vise develop ment of help tion will require increased mu nicipal and domestic water, more work opportunities, and in creased recreational opportuni ties. The long run transition to a sustained yield program in the primary timber industry of the county may well result in the need for new job opportunities for some of those now employed in that field. 4. Historically there has been a conflict of interest between the various types of water users, however this committee realis tically recognizes that the Rogue basin in its middle segment is not a primitive area, that irrespec tive of the desirability of setting it aside as such from a recrea tional standpoint, it is some fifty years too late. On the other hand, recreation is a major basin resource and should be so re garded in any plan of develop ment. 5. As outlined in the report of the sub-committee on industry, mining and power, future eco nomic development of the basin will probably be found in the field of agriculture with its as sociated service industries. Sec ondly, a development of the chemical wood by-product indus try should be encouraged when suitable water and air pollution safeguards are developed. Should Be Multiple Us 6. Any plan of development should be multiple use in char acter. It is recognized that any such plan is unlikely to afford all desirable characteristics to all water users. It is the belief of this committee that given the facts in regards to such plans facts developed through studies by competent technicians in the pertinent physical and biological fields that reasonable men, faced with those facts, will suc cessfully reconcile their differ ences. 7. It is recognized that as part of any plan of water develop ment a main stem structure may be a component. Depending on its location such a structure could have an adverse effect on an dromus fish the lower down on the main stem the more dele terious the effect. The commit tee holds its essential that any 111 For Your Toy Shopping Convenience o o The Toy House will be o MGHT 4 The 'Til 9 p.m. Beginning Monday, December 2 Until Christmas Toy House MAR. 22 jfcATO. 20 H20-26-3Wtf 4L E 42-47-56-53 61-63-85-36) STAR GA2ER TAURUS - APR. 21 MAY 21 GEMINI MAY 22 JUNE 22 fTM 3-25-35-41 HJ 64-67-84-87 CANCSt JULY 23 a 1 X" (fiA'iM uo JULY 24 -AUG. 23 33-33-43 65-77-81-9 VKCO j AUG. 3 fA SEPT 22 YT 1- 6-45-431 RV51-1 1-70-76 -By CLAY H POLLAN- M Yow Doily Adfvrfy Gui6 H if According to th Stan.
