This letter when approved will be sent to Representative Gordon E.Snow,Rep-reeentativJack ASeitx and Senator Beverly Evans. As a Duchesne County Commission we would like to make you aware of the reason Duchesne County is not participating in the Utah Stale Fire Suppression Fund for wildland fires. In 1998 the County participated in this program with a premium of twenty thousand dollars, a figure based upon assessed evaluation etc. It was our understanding at the time that up to 75'! oTthis premium would be relumed upon completion ofa fire hazard reduction program in the County. This wss done, however, we were informed that the Fund lacked sufficient monies to reimburse Duchesne County for their effort. After this turn of events the County elected not to participate in future years premiums. As you are probably aware, the 2000 fire year was a tremendous burden on fire budgets everywhere, and the State Fund has been depleted. We have been approached to join the Fund again, but at this time the Division of Forestry, Fire and Sute Lands has placed a reentry of three times the premium, which of course is not acceptable to us, or for that matter anyone else who may wish to join. We therefore suggest legislation that would let counties into the fiind with no hark penalties. As the Fund is totally depleted at this time it seems fair for such legislation as all participants will be starting anew to create the Fund, and there should be no concern about counties having to share fluids with those that have no partia pa led in previous year. Your support for such legislation would be appreciated.
