But this doesn't interrupt or delay the system. The locomotives leave their cars of raw coal, pick up a (trainload of d coal, and take off on their ran to the steel plant. At Helper, Utah, the system achieves a triumph of locomotive utilization. Here the Rio Grande main line west starts a climb of 1,631 feet to Soldier Summit. at Helper, two locomotive units have stopped on their return eastward from the steel mill with empty cars. These units are uncoupled from their train, tied onto the westbound loaded train, and "help" the payload 7,440 feet up to the summit, above sea level. After the big push, they return to Helper and continue on to the mines with empties, starting the cycle all over.

Two Utah Projects were presented to the Commission by its professional staff, for consideration. Both of the projects were approved for funding under the Commissions supplemental funding program. Funded projects were: One of $245,000 to Price River the District, and other to the Gunnison Valley Hospital Assn., for $55,000. The Carbon project is an integral and Inseparable part of the comprehensive water 4 sewage disposal plant for the Price River Improvement t. The tack of such basic facilities have been an insurmountable bottleneck to the ec. onomic development in coai-ric- h Carbon County, the com-- ) mission pointed out. Only a minimal numbers of jobs can presently be tied directly to this project. However, economic development efforts of various individuals, local, state & federal agencies have indicated beyond dispute that no economic development Is possible without these facilities. The Price River area has lost a very great many opportunities for industrial development both manufacturing and devel opment in the basic coal industry because of a lack of facilities.
