the same charge as that agreed to
in your letter of April 81 1914.
For the information of your gov
eminent and in explanation OF the
foregoing. the investment OF this
district III Iaguna and Imperial
Dams, Qesilting works, and the ALI
American canal to Pilot Knob-all
of which are facilities required in
providing service to Mexico -
amounts to approximately $l6,OOO,-
600. In addition, the district must
pay the operation and maintenance
costs OF these facilities and also is
liable for damage of all KINDS and
and character ira; may result from
the construction, operation and
maintenance of these works.
CITES SILT
In this connection, it should be
noted that to date it has not been
necessary to operate the canal de-
sitting works al Imperial Dam, as
the river silt has been accommodating
in the reservoir formed by the
dam. However, conditions are such
that we are informed by the Bureau
of Reclamation that the diversion
of the additional water to the ALL
American canal for Mexico will
make it necessary TO commence
operation of the deSilting works
Immediately. 1t will require several
days to priVide the necessary per-
sonnet ano get the deSilting works
to operating; however, there will
be no delay in delivery to Mexico OH
this account.
In view OF the serious condition
of the crops in the Mexicali Valley,
of which you and others have in
formed us. and the tremendous
losses that would be incurred by
the agriculturists if relief was not
secured quickly, we are glad that
we have the facilities and means
by which the relief will be accom-
pliShed.
Yours very truly,
