Washington April 28 2000 The Senate committee on Indian Affairs began considering recommendations from the Director of the U S Geological Survey urging funding for a San Carlos Gila site reservoir.

The dam would cost 1 090 023 dollars and set a precedent for federal water projects in the arid west.
