PowerlForMird alert mow ddi force if or summer The Utah Energy Office has activated the PowerFor-ward PowerFor-ward alert network for the summer of 2003. Each day for the remainder of the summer the PowerForward alert network will relay day-ahead day-ahead information to consumers consum-ers notifying them of those days and times during the summer when electricity conservation efforts are needed to maintain system reliability and reduce the amount of Electricity iJtaji'is utility companies must purchase pur-chase from the wholesale spot market. A light bulb with one of three familiar colors-green, yellow and red-will indicate the level of conservation actions requested request-ed from consumers. A "Green" notification indicates regional conditions with respect to weather, regional power supply and demand, and wholesale market mar-ket prices are normal. On green days, power supplies in Utah are adequate to meet demand, but consumers are still asked to not waste elec-, tricity and to adopt conserva-' tion practices in their daily activities. "Turning off lights, TVs and computers when you're not using them is an easy way to save electricity," said Jeff Burks, PowerForward program director. "Turning up the setting on your air conditioner's thermostat is the most effective way to save electricity during the summer. Each degree above 72 results in a 3 percent savings from your air conditioning condi-tioning system." The PowerForward website, web-site, www.powerforward.ut-ah.gov, www.powerforward.ut-ah.gov, provides consumers access to information about the day's energy conservation alert status, as well as to practical information on voluntary, low-cost and no-cost no-cost conservation actions individuals and businesses can take to reduce non-essential electricity use during peak hours of the summer. Consumers can also sign up to receive automatic e-mail alerts when yellow or red alerts are called. The Utah Energy Office will confer with Utah's electric elec-tric utility companies on a daily basis about weather predictions, regional power supplies and market prices. The Energy Office will then issue the PowerForward alert status for the following day to the media, all government employees and to everyone who has signed up for the e-mail e-mail alert service. The following table shows the alert symbols and their " meanings, and suggests some tips for consumers to follow for each level. Green days indicate con sumers are advised to practice prac-tice "Conservation 247." The "247" message reminds consumers Utah's affordable-priced affordable-priced electricity is too precious pre-cious to waste. Consumers are asked to use electricity wisely. Business and residential residen-tial consumers are urged to turn off appliances not in use, keep thermostats set at 75 degrees or above during the day if possible and minimize mini-mize use of appliances be-! be-! tween noon' and 8 pirn. Yellow days signal a strong need for conservation. Yellow days occur when above normal temperatures and regional power supply conditions have the potential to result in a shortfall between be-tween available electricity supply in Utah and forecasted demand. Conservation is especially important on "Yellow" "Yel-low" days to reduce the need for the state's utilities to purchase power supplies on the wholesale spot market. Consumers are urged to avoid using electricity between be-tween the peak hours of noon and 8 p.m., turn off all unnecessary appliances and set thermostats of. air conditioning condi-tioning systems to 78 degrees. de-grees. ( , Red daysthe most critical criti-cal alert level-occur when power generation and transmission trans-mission conditions are marginal, mar-ginal, threatening delivery of electricity supplies to Utah consumers. Conservation is critical to maintain electric system reliability. Consumers are asked to "voluntarily" curtail all. non-essential electricity elec-tricity use to avoid "involuntary" "involun-tary" brownouts and rolling blackouts. "This is an extremely important tool to help us manage summer power supplies," sup-plies," said Governor Lea- vitt. "Each of the last two summers we have asked Utah consumers for their cooperation coopera-tion in conserving electricity on critical days. They have responded and our ability to manage the power system has been enhanced." Last summer, Utahns conserved an average of 90 megawatts on each of the 1 1 declared "yellow" days saving sav-ing utilities an estimated $750,000 in avoided wholesale whole-sale power purchases. Ninety megawatts is enough power to supply nearly 45,000 hpuses-about 12 percent of all households in the state-for state-for a day. -) "Right now, Utah's power system is in good condition," the Governor observed. "Our utilities .have planned ahead apd scheduled for what we forecast will be adequate electricity supplies to meet summer demand. Still, it is in the interest of the economy econo-my and consumers' pocket-books pocket-books to be vigilant and prepared to conserve electricity electric-ity if market conditions this summer change unexpectedly.", Caimn rates io hj restore justice to legal system Congressman Chris Cannon Can-non (R-UT) today praised House passage of a measure tackling the abuses of class action lawsuits. H.R. 1115, the Class Action Fairness Act, addresses circumstances where trial lawyers make millions while their clients see little more than pennies andor coupons. "Our civil justice system will become simpler, fairer and faster for everyone with this common sense reform," Cannon said. "This legislation legisla-tion will curtail abusive and frivolous lawsuits that have hindered economic growth and job creation for years. The current system is obscene'. ob-scene'. Trial lawyers take advantage, real victims get little and consumers ultimately ultimate-ly pay the price in the form of higher prices. " The bill helps balance the current class action system by expanding federal jurisdiction juris-diction over interstate class action suits to help curb the abuses that now exist. Additionally, Addi-tionally, safeguards would be implemented against large settlements that give lawyers millions of dollars in fees while individual' class members mem-bers receive a small fraction of any settlement. "Filings of state court class actions have increased 1,000 percent in the last ten years and it is clear something some-thing must be done," Cannon said. "BY expanding the role of federal courts and moving large, multi-state class action lawsuits from state to federal tribunals, we will be limiting the widespread practice of 'venue shopping' by trial lawyers." A class action suit against Blockbuster Video totaled more than $9 million in legal fees, but awarded plaintiffs with $1 off" coupons for video rentals. A suit against a bank of Boston yielded $8.64 for each plaintiff while costing each $80 in attorney fees. Plaintiffs in a suit against Chase Manhattan Bank received checks for 33 cents while trial lawyers racked up $4 million in legal fees. Also included in the legislation is a "Consumer Class Action Bill of Rights," which would: - Enhance judicial scrutiny scruti-ny of coupon settlements - Protect against settlements settle-ments that result in net loss to plaintiffs - Prohibit the unjustified payment of bounties in class action cases - Protect American against settlement that favor certain people based upon where they live. For most people, summer barbecues go hand in hand, and usually that means a lot of red meat. However, according ac-cording to the Harvard School of Public Health, red meat is generally high in salt, preservatives and saturated fat and eating too much of it can lead to an increased risk of colon cancer. Grilling vegetables instead offers a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional red meat grilling. This doesn't mean you have to cut out the burgers and steaks altogether. But do cut it down. So next time you're out grilling, try this tasty treat: Cut vegetables such as eggplant, potatoes, carrots, zucchini, mushrooms, bell peppers and onions into one-inch one-inch pieces and, with the exception of the onion, leave the skins on. Parboil the vegetables in boiling water until barely tender (three minutes for eggplant, six minutes for carrots and 20 minutes for potatoes). Mix approximately three parts canola oil to one part white wine vinegar and add minced garlic, Dijon mustard, mus-tard, dry basil, oregano, marjoram, rosemary and pepper or other herbs of your choice. Marinate the vegetables vegeta-bles in the mixture for at least two hours. Drain and reserve the marinade. Arrange the vegetables on metal skewers and place on a grill lightly sprayed with cooking oil, four to six inches inch-es above the hot coals. Cook, turning often and basting with : the reserved marinade for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender. Buy, sell, trade or rent through CLASSIFIED ADS Phone 489 5651 now! PARK ELEMENTARY Librarian.
