3.    One member representing property interests along the Taylor River and/or Gunnison main stem above Blue Mesa Reservoir.
All persons appointed must be residents within the District and experienced and knowledgeable about river conditions along the Taylor and Gunnison Rivers. Selected members shall be notified in writing of their appointment. If interested in serving, please send to the District a letter of interest including the reason for your interest and the Local Users Group that you propose to represent. The Board will also consider letters of support or nomination from user groups of
interested individuals.
The deadline for submitting letters of interest is January 19, 2009. Please send letters of interest to: UGRWCD, P.O. Box 1330, Gunnison, CO 81230. Letters may also be faxed to: (970) 641-1162, or emailed to: ugrwcd@ugrwcd.org. For questions, please call 641-6065.
