Description: This book provides a record of a Congressional hearing held to discuss amending the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park to allow for the creation of an irrigation reservoir. Yellowstone National Park was established in 1872, making it the first national park in the United States. The author of this book, Senator Stanfield, was tasked with chairing a committee to investigate and make a final recommendation on the boundary adjustment. The committee ultimately recommended against removing part of the southwestern section of the park, despite testimony from farmers and residents of nearby communities that an irrigation reservoir was essential to their survival. The book includes testimony from farmers, environmentalists, and government officials, providing valuable insight into the competing interests at play.
