Show Governor Seotl M. Matheson says that the decide of the 80s has dawned with considerable less brilliance than expected in Utah, but that "there are positive signs on the immediate horizon which are encouraging in the short term, and considerably more encouraging over the lung haul." In a speei h this week in Salt Lake City, Governor Matheson noted that nearly one quarter of a million of new jobs will be created in Utah during the next ten years even if the MX missile system, the Intermountain Power Project and synthetic fuel development arent implemented. "We, in the west and in Utah, are anticipating a decade of growth and economic vitality that we have never before experienced," said Governor Matheson. "At the state level, we have devoted considerable time and energy exploring Utahs potential and in developing growth management strategies which will prepare us for both the challenges and the opportunities. If IPP, the MX, and synthetic fuel development progresses as currently anticipated, Utahs growth patterns will spiral even more dramatically. "Obviously these massive projects will demand an enormous work force and will add thousands of new jobs to said our region and to our state, Matheson. The Governor added that during the next ten years a number of events are clear and present probabilities for Utah and the western region. -- There will be continued exploration and development of oil and gas reserves in the region which now represents 28 of the total domestic production. -- Accelerated uranium mining for the nations nuclear power industry. The projected growth in the uranium industry over the next ten years will br.ru; some 2.1,000 workers and 136,000 ncA residents at a cost of $1.7 billion to the western states for public facilities to .lucatc, transport, and serve the aiidi il population. : lie west contains 60 of the nation s developable coal reserves.

Thirty six projects in the west have been identified. These protects, combined, will bring in 856,000 new residents to the western region. "We can anticipate a population increase of more than one million people in the next decade in our western states " s:mt Governor Matheson. "The conservative estimate of the public fatiliiics which will have to be provided will be more than $15 billion; and those costs do not include expected growth in urban centers, completion major Colorado River water projects. such as the Central Utah Project, nor the mind boggling dimensions of Fxxons synthetic fuel proposal to produce eight million barrels of oil per day from the Uintah and Piocene Basins in Utah and Colorado. That project alone could result in the addition of .5 million of 1 new residents." Governor also stressed that national security is no longer just military security, "The nation is focusing on Utah and the west in terms of energy security, job security, military security, and economic security.
