CIBOLA, Ariz., July IS R.-
All of a sudden it seems there's
a new bridge across the Colo
RADIO River. Federal officials
are flabbergasted.
A group Of Arizona farmers
built the bridge without both
ering about red tape-and the
law.
The Army Corps of Engi-
neers, one of the agencies which
should have been notified.
learned about the bridge When
private boat owners started
complaining that it was OBJ
structing their movements.
So the corps, calling the
bridge unlawful" has issued
this ultimatum to the builders:
The bridge will be modified
to provide adequate vertical
and horizontal clearance COM
patible with navigation inter-
ests. or a section of the bridge
will be removed pending such
modification
The 4l0-foot span was built
by nine farmers 20 miles south
of Blythe. Calf. and 40 miles
north Of Yuma. Ariz.. at a cost
Of $4,000. They ignored the
half dozen Federal and State
agencies that are supposed to
be consulted about building
bridges across navigable rivers.
Business has been great. The
builders have been collecting
tolls Of 81 on cars and 50 on
trucks moving over the bridge
at the rate Of 5000 to 5000 a
month.
