| Description | Letter from Delph Carpenter addressing the Secretary of the Interior's 1929 claims that the Rio Grande Compact did not properly decide the apportionment of the river but did require the federal government to undertake expensive infrastructure projects in the San Luis Valley. Carpenter argued that Senate Bill S. 1501 approving the Rio Grande Compact should be allowed as-is. |
