The chief executive said he favors such an approach but legislators have not agreed. One state representative, Edward Kerr (RrTremonton) said he visited Porcupine reservoir, a popular fishing and camping area, and saw an estimated 300 camp sites. "If were going to stock streams for people to fish, we need to provide cleanup," he declared. Commissioner Olsen agreed. Olsen also gave a ringing endorsement to weather modification which is being conducted in Bear River district for. the first time this summer. He cited its value in removing the threat of hall, especially now .with grain ready to harvest, and noted that Rich county had received an unusually heavy rain storm recently something unusual for that area this time of year. "We feel its paying off for people in the north end of the state," Olsen told the governor. Rampton said he had been an early skeptic of weather modification but has since changed his mind. Olsen also raised the problem of weed control, calling for greater state cooperation in the fight against dyers woad and Canadian thistle. He specifically mentioned the' heed 'for spraying along state and cited county highway rights-of-waspraying efforts now underway in Cache county. He mentioned that aerial spraying from helicopters has proved both effective and feasible. , economically We cannot afford to let this thing go as it is, he announced. v On the question of proposed oil exploration on Bear lake, the governor said at his request the state land board rejected applications for this authority. The Bear River Association of Governments board had unanimously taken a position opposing such exploration. ' Governor Rampton also mentioned the steps now planned to arrive at an energy resources plan for Utah, beginning with a citizens committee, hearings and finally adoption by the legislature.

Chief executive discussed with local leaders matters "Utahns are more highly skilled, better educated, . and more motivated than the average citizen in other states. In spite of that, bad fedeal land policies have caused Utahs per capita family income to plummet from near the national average in 1958, to 42nd in the nation by 1974, he stated. Nood awareness Education key to farm safety The National Safety Council (NSC), and the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USD A), urged the nations farmers and ranchers to educate for safety in their 200th year of independence. To save lives and needless suffering in 1976 requires education, dedication, and an of awareness potential hazards," a recent NSC report stated.
