(31) In accordance with the request of the Board of Trustees, this proposal is presented for the award of a contract to Harza Engineering Company, Chicago, to investigate alternatives to the 1966 Corps of Engineers plan for a conservation pool behind Oakley Dam and Reservoir, which will permanently inundate 600 acres of land in Robert Allerton Park. The objectives of the study are: 1. To identify and appraise very generally a broad range of concepts for water resource development and management projects as alternatives to the "higher" Oakley Reservoir. 2. To determine whether any of the alternatives are sufficiently promising to merit the expense of further in-depth engineering and economic investigation. 3. To design a program of investigation and analysis for detailed investigation of the promising alternatives. Harza Engineering Company estimates that eight weeks would be required to complete the study, after which they will publish a report. They propose a fee of $15,000 for the study and report. Funds are available for this study from the income of Robert Allerton Farms. The Chairman of the Buildings and Grounds Committee and all appropriate administrative officers have been consulted. On motion of M r . Grimes, the recommendation was approved with the understanding that the proposed fee be appropriately reduced if the study should indicate no need to proceed with item 3 ; this action was taken by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Clement, Mr. Grimes, Mr. Halm, Mr. Jones, M r .
