The 96 mile pipeline ends just south of Rock Springs where a fertilizer plant will be built. Presently phosphate ore is trucked through Ver nal td a rail head north of Heber City at Phoston. This 154 mile truck hauling operation will cease when the slurry pipeline is in operation. The Rock Springs plant will transport sulfur from its Carter Creek plant north of Evanston, Wyo.

Schlecht, president of Chevron Resources. "The assistance and cooperation of all agencies and departments depart-ments were key," agreed Robert W. Davis, president of Chevron Chemical. According to David C. Smith, vice president of Chevron Chemical Company Com-pany and general manager of the Or-tho Or-tho Fertilizer Division, the decision to proceed with the new plant underscores Ortho's commitment to the fertilizer business. "It assures our customers of a long-term, reliable supply of quality ammonium phosphate products," Smith said.

Hints on water storage Sheriff's office arrests man on felony charge Water for drinking, cooking and sanitation is so abundant in the home that it is taken for granted. We expect to see water rushing from our taps whenever we turn them on. Many circumstances, cir-cumstances, ranging from repair work on the water main to an earthquake earth-quake or other disaster can, however, interrupt water service or contaminate con-taminate the water supply. In such cases, an emergency supply of water stored at home can be of great value. AMOUNT OF WATER TO STORE It is a fact that only a short-term supply of water can be stored in most homes. A two-week supply of water is a realistic amount. Recommendations for the amount of water to be stored vary from one-half gallon to one gallon per day, per person, for food preparation prepara-tion and drinking purposes only. The Department of Defense, Office of Civil Defense, states that a quart of water or other fluid a day will sustain life, but humans would be much more comfortable, especially in warm weather, with an allowance of a gallon per day. An additional one-half to one gallon per day is recommended for washing, toothbrushing and dishwashing. The amount for consumption might be reduced somewhat, depending on the total fruit juices and other drinks and high moisture foods which are available. Other sources of water available in emergency situations are the hot water heater, water softener containers and the water storage area of the toilet. CONTAlNKItS FOR VVATKIt STORAGE Many types of containers are available for water storage. The most commonly used containers are glass, plastic and metal. PLASTIC: Plastic gallon jugs are reqiiently used for water storage, These containers are lightweight and not easily broken. There are many types of plastic containers manufactured. manufac-tured. Generally polyethylene type plastics are safe for storing water. Some are not recommended for food storage because they could contribute hirmful chemicals to the contents. Most plastics used In waterfowls are not approved food storage plastics. Always use plastic containers which have previously been used for food storage or which are being advertised advertis-ed as fod storage products. Plastic Jugs with secure lids, which have contained con-tained milk or other edible substances, are safe for w ater storage; however, it Is essentia! that the milk bottles be very thoroughly washed to remove the fat traces. Since plastic is permeable (o certain vapors, water stored in plastic should not be near gasoline, kerosene, pesticides, or similar substances. It is advisable to store plastic water containers away from direct sunlight. To prevent leakage use undamaged containers, store plastic containers on a smooth, flat surface only in a single layer, fill containers full and check periodically for any leaks. METAL: Some metals, such as stainless steel, can successfully be used us-ed for water storage. A metal water storage container should be resistant to rust. A metallic taste can be picked pick-ed up by the stored water in some types of metal containers. Water stored in metal containers should not be treated, prior to storage, with chlorine since the chlorine compound is corrosive to most metals. TREATMENT FOR STORED WATER Water which is to be stored for long periods of time should be sanitized or disinfected. Be sure to use tha best quality water possible for storage. Water from a system with a state division divi-sion of health "approved" rating is recommended. Likewise, the containers con-tainers should be clean. HEAT TREATMENT: One effective way to store water is in clean canning jars. Fill clean fruit jars with water, leaving one inch of headspace at the top of the jars. Place unused clean lids and screw bands and process the water in a boiling water bath as fruit is processed. Quart jars should be processed pro-cessed 20 minutes, two quart jars for 25 minutes. CHLORINE TREATMENT: Liquid chlorine bleach can be used to disinfect water for long term storage. One gallon can be treated by the addition ad-dition of 1 4 teaspoon of liquid chlorine bleach containing 4 to 6 percent sodium hypochlorite (most bleaches contain 5.25 percent). This is equivalent to 16 drops of liquid chlorine bleach. Treated water should be allowed to stand for 30 minutes before using. Treated water should have a slight chlorine odor; if not, repeat the treatment and let stand for an additional 15 minutes. Only fresh bleach should be used for water disinfection. Closure of water containers should be secure. Stored water should be checked occasionally. If any changes are noted, replace the water with clean water and treat as before. Sterilized or disinfected water, stored in clean, foodontact approved containers with secure lids or caps, should be safe for use even after many years of storage. Replacement of stored water with fresh water should be necessary only if the stored w ater becomes contaminated in some way or if the container should begin to leak. Re certain to label each container as it is filled so there will foe no question about its contents when it is used at a later date. Include information on the method of disinfection used at the lime of storage and the date. Sammie Lewis Fletcher, a Kentucky native, was arrested by the Uintah County Sheriff's Office, April 27 on third degree felony theft charges. The charges against Fletcher stem from an incident which occurred at Frontier Kemper of the White River Shale Oil Project. Taken in the theft were two cutting torches and a grinder valued at approximately $500. Dale Brock, of Frontier Kemper, reported the theft to the Sheriff's Office Of-fice at approximately 12:30 p.m. Thursday. Brock reported that Flet cher who was employed by the company com-pany had possibly committed the theft. After obtaining a search warrant, Detective Sgt. Manuel Cantu, recovered the stolen property at a local residence and Fletcher was taken into custody. Fletcher plead guilty to a reduced charge of a Class A misdemeanor and received a fine of $106 and was sentenced to five days in the county jail. The jail sentence, however, was suspended.

Chamber meeting 'Freedom-America's last great hope' "At White River we are still going ahead," Robert N. Pratt, president of White River Shale Oil Corporation, said at the annual Vernal Area Chamber of Commerce meeting. Pratt's energetic speech rallied Chamber members around the basic principles of America freedom. "The greatest freedom is the freedom of enterprise," he said. "Is there anybody out there that can see what I see," he said quoting the words of John Adams. Businessmen and women have the power to turn the world around. "Business is the science of loving. We're only a minority, but it's the minority that can make the difference." The U.S. Synthetic Fuels Corporation Corpora-tion was formed under the Carter ad- ministration to share the risk of oil shale development. They have imposed impos-ed some stiff terms which caused White River to withdraw, Pratt said. "We have the finest mine in the world and we are going to complete the project," he said. One of the problems, Pratt said White River has encountered is that White River purchased a license to use Union technology to retort oil shale, but the Union retort hasn't started up. "They have engineers tyring to get it started and we've sent our engineer to get it started. White River won't go ahead with the design until they see it works." Pratt said that government imposed impos-ed restrictions on business should be limited. "Government, like fire is dangerous, but alone a powerful master. "Freedom is the last great hope for America." During the business portion of the Chamber, Bob Foley, Bill Gurr, Brad Gale, Dennis Mott and Harvey Madsen were elected to the Chamber's board of directors. They will replace Gene Hall, Gayle McKeachnie, Laura Morrison and Gary Taylor. Bob Foley was appointed to a second term. By Lillian Bono V Bono's 7 ARIES.
