Nater Waiver Issue Recalled 1966 Big Water Grab Controversy
Former Navajo Times editor Chet MacRorie questions a proposed water waiver for the Upper Colorado Basin, arguing the plan would dwarf the 1966 Big Water Grab in limiting irrigation and threaten jobs and investment. He cites 1,700 power complex jobs and Navajo Irrigation Project payrolls of about 42 million annually, plus 315 million for related developments, with total project investment near 287.7 million.
