Settlement Talks Backed By Senator Aims To Restore Idaho Water
Boise July 8 Water returns to about 180 farms covering roughly ten thousand acres in the Boise project after a temporary court order by Judge Dana Brinck. Delinquent payments prompted the shutoff on July 2 by J B Bond under Elwood Mead’s authority. Brinck delays further action until a hearing July 14 while Senator William Norah offers to represent settlers in negotiations with Mead. Mead warns Idaho court action could derail federal reclamation nationwide, affecting American Falls dam plans.
