CHAPTER 12B--COLORADO RIVER STORAGE PROJECT
Sec. 620b. Congressional intent; additional undesignated
projects not precluded; construction not authorized within
national park or monument
It is not the intention of Congress, in authorizing only those
projects designated in section 620 of this title, and in authorizing
priority in planning only those additional projects designated in
section 620a of this title, to limit, restrict, or otherwise interfere
with such comprehensive development as will provide for the consumptive
use by States of the Upper Colorado River Basin of waters, the use of
which is apportioned to the Upper Colorado River Basin by the Colorado
River Compact and to each State thereof by the Upper Colorado River
Basin Compact, nor to preclude consideration and authorization by the
Congress of additional projects under the allocations in the compacts as
additional needs are indicated. It is the intention of Congress that no
dam or reservoir constructed under the authorization of this chapter
shall be within any national park or monument.
