Workers can Vernal mortuary gets facelift In recognition of their outstanding public service and contributions to the Uintah Basin area, the American Petroleum Institute (API) was presented a "C Flag" award from President Ronald Reagan's program to honor volunteerism. The flag was given to officials of API by Senator Orrin Hatch while he was in Vernal for a task force meeting Tuesday. Accepting the award were Jim Simonton, chairman; chair-man; Kent Abbott, vice chairman; Steve Hale, social director and Dick Abercrombie, secretary treasurer for API. API was nominated for the award by the Utah Area Association Directors Direc-tors of Volunteers (UAADV) who promote the philosophy and concept of volunteerism and to educate its members in the principles and standards stan-dards of administration as they apply to the direction and management of volunteer programs in the Utah area. UAADV member, Rose Anna Miller a resident of Ballard, Utah, prepared a letter recommending API for the national award. Mentioned in the letter were accomplishments ac-complishments made through the efforts ef-forts of API on behalf of local communities com-munities such as: contributing money and manpower to the Uintah Basin Food pantry and Sub-for-Santa programs; giving scholarships for youth leadership training for Kids With Energy, a youth organization developing peer programs focusing on anti-drugs; providing funds for the Duchesne High School "Space Cannister Project"; gave buh time and materials to local governments for expanding recreational programs and facilities such as the Roosevelt industrial park, Vernal Park, swimming swim-ming pools, golf courses and more; purchased and donated emergency medical equipment to the EMT's programs; pro-grams; they were instrumental in the implementation, design and teaching of the Petroleum Technology course at Uintah Basin Obituaries Area Vocational Center, and provided provid-ed scholarships for needy students in this field; encouraged oil companies to purchase rags from local service clubs to raise needed funds; rather than from distributors and donated a much-needed Jacuzzi for Conamore Training School for Handicapped Children. API is comprised of members related to, or interested in the oil industry. in-dustry. It has 55 chapters throughout the nation. The Uintah Basin Chapter was formed in 1974 with over 60 members representing oil-related companies. According to API, the oil industry recognized the problems created by the impact on "boom towns". They feel that as they are part of those problems, pro-blems, they should help provide solutions. solu-tions. Therefore, the objectives of API are to create an awareness of the oil industry, address the needs of the community as well as the industry, and promote good will within communities. com-munities. These things are reflected in the vast sums of money, materials and , volunteer manpower they have given in the past and continue to offer to meet future needs. As many local residents watch with interest, Thomson's Vernal Mortuary Mor-tuary is undergoing an extensive face lift. The building will have an entire new roof line which will be functional for energy conservation as well as aesthetically pleasing as it unifies the old and new parts of the structure. struc-ture. Charles Davidson, the architect who drew up the plans for the new look, is a brother to Mrs. Frank (Sharol) Thomson. Davidson is from the Salt Lake City area. The contractor on the job is also a family member; Frank's brother, Eugene Thomson. He is owner of Thomson Construction of Bountiful, Utah. According to the Thomsons, several individuals have inquired about the project and asked who had designed and was working on the roof addition. At the same time the roof is being built the road construction on 100 North in front of Thomson's Mortuary Mor-tuary is continuing. There is a parking park-ing lot available on the north of the building, and patrons have access from the west entrance. The completion of the road construction con-struction if for the end of August and the roof should be completed by the first of September.

A proposal to increase the rates was brought before part of the city ci-ty council and the county commissioners commis-sioners but has not received final approval. ap-proval. Councilmen Karl Migliori and Jack Stagg have indicated that they would approve an increase in the rates in order to make the landfill self-sustaining. Because the landfill is administered by Vernal City, the city council must pass a new resolution resolu-tion before the rates are increased. Both members of the council and the county commissioners said they would rather see rates increased in an effort to run operations at the landfill than to raise taxes and have entities and residents subsidize the operations. At the present time, the landfill needs to generate revenues of at least $81,000 a year in order to operate without subsidies from the city or county. Last year only S46.1G6 was collected through user fees. City Manager Ken Bassett conducted con-ducted a four week study of activities at the landfill for the past year. Bassett examined the number and type of vehicles that used the landfill during a two week period in the winter months and a two week period during the summer. Most of the trash dumped at the landfill is brought in by pickup trucks. Last year alone over 18,000 pickup loads were dumped at the landfill.
