One of the biggest changes on July 1 involves in-volves a requirement that hunters buy either a hunting license (formerly (former-ly called a small game license) or a combination combina-tion license before they can apply for or obtain a hunting permit. For example, before you can apply for or obtain a general season deer hunting permit, you must buy a hunting license or a combination license first. There are two exceptions excep-tions to this rule: if you have a 365-day small game or combination license li-cense that's still valid on July 1, you don't have to buy a new hunting or combination license until your license expires.

Beginning July 1, a hunting license will cost $26 for residents and $65 for nonresidents. A combination com-bination license will cost $30 for residents and $80 for nonresidents. In addition to allowing you to apply for or obtain a hunting permit, a hunting hunt-ing license allows you to hunt small game. A combination com-bination license allows you to fish, hunt small game and apply for or obtain ob-tain a hunting permit. "In the past, paying $5 to try and draw a big game permit was the only financial contribution contribu-tion many people made to Utah's wildlife," says Jim Karpowitz, director of the DWR. "Now people will have to buy a hunting or combination license before be-fore they can apply for or obtain a hunting permit. "We think this is a good way to spread the cost of wildlife management out among all sportsmen." The fee changes will provide the DWR with the funding it needs to continue managing Utah's wildlife effectively. "Not only will the fee changes allow us to meet our operating oper-ating expenses, they'll allow al-low usto help sportsmen and wildlife in some new ways," Karpowitz says. The following are some of the ways the new funding fund-ing will benefit sportsmen and wildlife: The amount of pri-f vate land open to sportsmen sports-men through the DWR's new Walk-In Access program will continue to grow. More habitat work can be done to benefit wildlife across Utah, r - ., Work will continue to control phragmities, a plant that's invaded many of the marshes along the eastern east-ern shore of the Great Salt Lake. The state's wildlife and waterfowl management manage-ment areas will be improved. Another change involves in-volves fishing. Beginning July 1, anglers who are 12 to 13 years old must buy a fishing license to fish in Utah. The license costs $5 for both residents and nonresidents. "Every time a young angler buys one of these licenses, $12 in federal aid will come to Utah," Karpowitz says. "We're going to invest that money mon-ey in fish hatcheries, community fishing wa-, ters and other programs that will make fishing in Utah even better."

Vi 4 vromole vlwn-in hybrid vehicles Senate Finance Committee Commit-tee members Sens. Maria Cantwell (D-Wa;sh.) and Orrin Hatch (RrUtah) with Sen. Barack Obama (MIL) today introduced a bill to help -develop commercially viable plug-in hybrids and other .electric-drive vehicles, which would shift the nation from its dependence on liquid liq-uid fuels and toward much cleaner - and cheaper - electricity elec-tricity for transportation. The,, Senators ; highlighted the goals of the bill with a press conference today featuring fea-turing two plug-in hybrids which can get more than 100 MPG in the city. "With the rapid industrialization industrial-ization of countries like In-dia-jand China, the demand for gasoline is unprecedented, unprecedent-ed, and that's translated into higher costs at the pump," Hatch said. "We're already feeling the pain of that, and it'll get worse unless we start shifting our transportation transpor-tation sector away from liquid liq-uid fuels and on to electrons. The best way to motivate that shift is with these market-based incentives, rather than Federal mandates." "Our transportation system sys-tem in this country is out of date," said Cantwell. We need to take advantage advan-tage of new technologies to bring our cars and trucks up to speed, save consumers consum-ers money, and diversify pur country off of fossil fuels. We produce enough extra electricity right now to power most of the cars, June is National Safety Month When it comes to safety, most Americans are more concerned about being a victim of a random act of violence than they are about being seriously injured in an accident when the reality real-ity is we are more likely to be hurt or even killed from a car accident, poison, or a fall (National Safety Council, Coun-cil, 2007). r, According to the National Safety Council, in 2005 there were 24 million preventable injuries and 113,000 accidental acci-dental deaths. With this in mind, the Utah Safety Council Coun-cil wants to focus on safety by proclaiming June as National Na-tional Safety Month. This year's theme is, Celebrating Cel-ebrating Safe Communities, Communi-ties, which reflects on the realities and the importance f grassroots and commu nity efforts to promote safe and healthy behaviors that protect people from harm in their workplaces, while driving, and in their homes and communities. At the Utah Safety Council, we encourage en-courage the community to come together to promote safe and healthy behaviors in all aspects of life. 5 ij LISTING (First 5 Coupons) (No Gimmics) Personal Guarantee - pickup trucks, and SUVs on our roads. It's time we made plug-in hybrid technology tech-nology available to more Americans." "Developing environmentally environ-mentally friendly fuel alternatives al-ternatives for vehicles is a critical step we can take to reduce America's consumption consump-tion of foreign oil and combat com-bat global climate change," Obama said. "The technology technol-ogy to produce energy alternatives al-ternatives exists, and we must provide the appropriate appropri-ate incentives to encourage consumer and manufacturer manufac-turer use. Supporting energy en-ergy efficient technology and electric vehicles would also help the American auto industry regain its competitive competi-tive edge." Their plan is a three-pronged three-pronged strategy promoting promot-ing Plug-in Electric Drive Vehicles (PEDVs), which includes in-cludes pure battery electric, extended range electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and plug-in fuel cell vehicles. First, their proposal would provide significant tax credits to consumers who purchase PEDVs. The provision will be patterned after the CLEAR ACT, sponsored and passed by Hatch as part of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which is SIEMENS Edison Stanford Hearing Center STRONG CD rate with an even stronger GUARANTEE.
