The Oregon Klamath River Commission was given the specific assignment of cooperating with the California Klamath River Commission in formulating and submitting to the legislative assemblies of both state for their approval an interstate compact relative to the distribution and use of the waters of the Klamath River. It was given authority to make the necessary surveys and investigations upon which to base such negotiations ... it is particularly fortunate that the United States Bureau of Reclamation has been engaged in a study for a Comprehensive Report on the Development of Water and Related Resources of the Upper Klamath Basin, which report was issued as a preliminary draft as of June 15, 1954, and the Bureau has been fully cooperative in making its studies and basic data available to this commission. Also, the State Water Resources Board of California has been prosecuting a study of present and potential uses of waters of the Klamath River in both states and issued an Interim Report on Klamath River Basin Investigation dated March, 1954. Both these reports have been of inestimable value in preparation of the data to be presented herein.
