The Sierra Club Glen Canyon Group will cover the counties of Carbon, Emery. Garfield, Grand, Kant. San Juan and Wayne. "This geographic area is too important not to have a Sierra Club group working hard to promote its environmental issues, including superlative wilderness, dynamic watersheds and sensitive desert ecosystems," said John Weisheit, the group's chairman. Grazing, off-road vehicles and the Colorado River are other issues the group expects to address. Environmentalists in southern Utah have been frustrated with the Salt Lake chapter of the Sierra Club for focusing more of its efforts on fighting the proposed Legacy Highway than on issues like draining Lake Powell. Glen Canyon joins other Sierra Club groups in Ogden and Salt Lake City.

"Our Executive Committee was unanimous in its approval of Scott Blackmun to take over the post and lead the USOC into the critical period of time for preparation of our athletes and national governing bodies for the 2002 Olvmpic Winter Games in Salt Lake City," USOC President Bill Hvbl said in a written statement. Blackmun joined the USOC in January 1999 as general counsel and director of legal affairs. In April, Blake named him senior managing director for sport resources as part of a restructuring plan. Blake, the USOCs first chief executive officer, resigned last week after nine months in the post. Critics pointed to management techniques they said were better suited to the business world than the athletic field. Blake had unprecedented authority that previously was shared by the president and the executive officer. During the nine months in the office, he fired about 40 employees from the 500-mem-ber staff and reduced the number of working committees and task forces from more than 40 to four.

One of our founder's sons is a past chairman of The Nature Conservancy's board of governors. Nationally, we've helped them establish a tallgrass prairie in Oklahoma. Our employees get personally involved, too. Locally, our pipeline technicians have helped maintain the walking trail in the Matheson Preserve," Wicburg continued. Wetlands are places where land and water meet. They can take the form of a marsh, bog or a flooded bottomland like the Matheson Preserve where the Colorado River brushes against the desert. The Nature Conservancy of Utah began acquiring land in 1990 to establish the preserve. Bellagamba added, "The Matheson Wetlands Preserve is an environmental success story. We've been able to preserve an exotic green world among the red cliffs here in the desert. Today, 890 acres are owned and jointly managed by the conservancy and the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. "What we've seen from Williams is a cooperative understanding under-standing that science and industry can work together. We've been able to teach them about the sensitivity sen-sitivity of the ecosystem in the preserve because we have open lines of communication."
