Message: <blockquote data-quote="gst" data-source="post: 105934" data-attributes="member: 373">Tim, I have no doubt that  recreation was added as a "project purpose" AFTER the original 1944 Pick Sloan Flood Control Act was introduced to Congress . Can you show where it was mentioned in the original 1944 language that resulted in private lands being taken for what Pick and Sloan presented and Congress compromised on and passed? At thbis point I am merely curious if it weas or if it was added by amendment in 1946. At this point that is not even the issue I am attempting to get others to consider. I am NOT arguing recreation is not a consideration today. I shared a link to show where it was indeed apparently added in 1946. You seem to be missing that point that that is how the govt operates I mentioned.My comments were merely to show that the Federal govt agencies like the COE and BLM are not honoring the language written in these Acts where promises were made to We the people. I strongly support you trying to hold these govt agencies such as the COE accountable and inform us of their actions. Your factual in depth insight into these issues is appreciated as people like myself do not spend the time to know what is happening, much like others do not spend the time to know what is happening with other Federal agencies like the BLM and USFS as they ignore language from past Acts that some of us follow more closely. I'm on your side in this one Tim. I was only using what is happening with the COE to make a point that other Fed. agencies such as the BLM are operating in the same manner.</blockquote>
