Abstract

A collection of textual and graphic material, dated 1962-1986, pertaining to the Application for Approval of Homestake Phase II Water Project.

Arrangement Note

This collection has been divided up into two series:

Series I: Application and Preliminary Material, 1962-1985

Series II: Response to Concerns About Completeness of the Application and Additional Material, 1970-1986

The items within the collection were originally arranged by Jaci Spuhler in 2009 according to their attachment number and the items have been left in this order. Please note that this arrangement is not by date and items may be out of order in terms of event and investigation chronology.

Provenance Statement

The "Application for Approval of Homestake Phase II Water Project, 1962-1986" was transferred to the Eagle Valley Library District, Local History and Genealogy Department by Eagle County at an unknown date.

Condition Description

Good. Slight wear and wrinkles noticeable on some material.

Note to the Researcher

Many large maps are included and were not unfolded at the time of receipt, therefore, they have been left as found to prevent further damage.

The first part of the collection used to be available in the reference section of the Colorado Books area of the Eagle Public Library. It was decided, during the migration process to ArchivesSpace, that this was detrimental to the collection and as such that part was recombined with the second part of the collection, which was stored in the archive. As a result, the markings and housings for materials in this collection are slightly inconsistent between boxes one and two.
