Hello,

The attached letter to David Harder is of general interest to participants in the Klamath Basin discussions, so I asked Ed Sheets to distribute it yesterday. But I am sending it around since evidently he was unable to do so.

Briefly, the letter indicates that because of the present state of the draft Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement ("KBRA") and the draft Klamath Basin Act, references to Hoopa must be removed from all document versions. This possibility was expressly contemplated in KBRA sec. 15.3.7 and the intent of that reservation of rights must be honored. Hoopa will participate in the next KBRA meeting to determine how that is carried out.

As you know, KBRA parties decided against addressing several key Hoopa concerns when Draft 11 was published. Also, Hoopa representatives have been excluded from the secret talks with PacifiCorp, at least since last fall. The parties remaining in the negotiations must not leave with anyone the impression that the Hoopa Valley Tribe remains part of their agreement. We hope, of course, that that will change.

Tom
