The provisions of 25-8-202, 204; and 402 C.R.S., provide the specific statutory authority for adoption of these regulatory amendments. The Commission also adopted, in compliance with 25-4-103(4), C.R.S., the following statement of basis and purpose.
BASIS AND PURPOSE:
The Commission adopted temporary modifications for Segment 1b as a result of its November 1989 hearing on the Arkansas River Basin. These temporary modifications are scheduled to expire December 31, 1992. A hearing for the Arkansas River Basin has been scheduled by the Commission for June 6, 1994. The Commission extended the expiration date of the temporary modification to December 31, 1994, so that the Commission will have an opportunity to hear evidence as to whether these temporary modifications continue to be necessary.
