Permanent pool hope grows behind John Martin Dam
Lamar Colorado reports renewed push for a permanent 10 000 acre foot water pool behind John Martin Dam to protect fish life. Arkansas Valley advocates have sought this for 15 years, aided by Colorado Game Fish and Parks purchase of up to 2000 shares in Catlin Canal Co. ARCA must approve, and water rights purchases face legal hurdles under the Arkansas River Compact Administration.
