BLAA preparing EIS on PR Spring leases The Bureau of Land Management announced this week that it is preparing prepar-ing an enviromental impact statement (EIS) for the proposed conversion of existing oil and gas leases to combined combin-ed hydrocarbon leases within the PR Spring and Hill Creek Special Tar Sand Areas (STSAs) in Uintah and Grand Counties, Utah. These leases would be converted under the Combined Combin-ed Hydrocarbon Leasing Act of 1981. The EIS will analyze the impacts of the proposed lease conversions and proposed surface mining or in situ tar sand projects. The PR Spring Combined Combin-ed Hydrocarbon Lease Conversion EIS will be tiered to the Utah Combined Hydrocarbon Regional EIS, which evaluates the broader issues of combined com-bined hydrocarbon leasing programs for 11 STSAs in Utah, including the PR Spring and the Hill Creek areas. BLM is asking the public to help determine the scope of the EIS through a mail-out scoping procedure. The purpose of the scoping process is (1) to inform the public of the nature of the combined hydrocarbon leasing program and the lease conversions proposed for the PR Spring and the Hill Creek STSAs, (2) to gather resource information from the public, and (3) to consider concerns, problems, pro-blems, and issues important to the public, including alternatives for possible inclusion in the EIS. A summary of the proposed projects, pro-jects, including a response form, may be obtained from the Vernal BLM office. of-fice. Comments will be accepted on this phase of the scoping process through May 29, 1984. Your Oral Plaque, as many people know, is the bacterial film that begins to form within hours after brushing the teeth. It can harden by drawing draw-ing calcium and phosphates out of saliva, forming a brittle white compound called calculus calcu-lus or tartar. This accumulates accumu-lates around the teeth, supporting sup-porting additional bacteria food stains and odor. Dentists have long recommended recom-mended a routine of brushing twice daily and flossing once a day to fight plaque, as well as having regular dental checkups check-ups and cleaning. Recent clinical studies conclude con-clude that rinsing twice daily with Listerine antiseptic, in addition to usual oral hygiene, can reduce plaque buildup by as much as 50 percent over brushing alone.
