United States Reclamation
Service Gives Formal Ap-
proval Of Plan

Formal approval of the proposed
gravity canal irrigation project for
the Lower Rio Grande Valley is Civ
en- in an official report just made
public by the United States Recla-
nation Service according TO the San
Benito Light. The report is one Of
the most thorough and complete do
cuments ever issued by the depart
ment and covers the work of federal
engineers in the Valley and the upper
reaches o fthe Rio Grande over a
period of years.
II contains 500 pages of legal sized
paper and besides declaring the pro-
ject feasible from an engineering
standpoint gives estimates of con
struction, goes into the various
routes along which it might be CON
structed and takes up fully the
amount of acreage that could be
watered.
The report was compiled several
months ago when engineers COM
pleted their preliminary survey Of
routes, dam sites and storage reser-
voirs. It's release followed close up
on the heels of a personal investiga-
tion of the Valley by A. p. Davis,
director of the Reclamation Service.

several months ago when Mr.. Davis
sent one of the departments attor-
neys here to assist in the formation
of a Water Users Association
through which federal aid must be
given if the canal is ever TO become
a reality.
To those who have been working
for years nthe interest of the plan
this step was regarded as highly sig

completion of the engineers investi-
cations.
