- Description:
- A newspaper article discussing: In January 1980, East Idaho legislators largely opposed changes to the Idaho Water Plan, particularly regarding minimum streamflow regulations. Many, including Senate President Reed Budge and House Speaker Ralph Olmstead, believed there was no immediate need for such changes, emphasizing the importance of water for irrigation and energy. Some legislators suggested alternative approaches, such as using revolving funds to develop water storage projects. While a few favored maintaining water quality standards, most were against rigid streamflow requirements and felt the current plan already struck a good balance.
