In a letter to all state legislators, the Utah Farm Bureau Federation is urging that flood control and flood prevention be given the "highest priority" in the current budget session ses-sion in the state legislature. , "With the devastatine 1983 floods and the record-breaking combination of saturated soils and heavy snowfall so far this winter...preparation for and mitigation of anticipated serious 1984 flooding must be of highest priority for our state," said UFB President Frank O. Nishiguchi, Garland, in the letter sent in behalf of the organization's nearly 20,000 member families. Nishiguchi said efforts to divert water from the Bear River drainage, the drainages into Utah Lake and then to the Great Salt Lake before the water reaches those lakes should have top priority in the long-range solution to the flooding problem. He said Farm Bureau has, for many years, advocated more rapid development develop-ment of upstream storage and utilization of water as an alternative to the loss of that clean water to a saline lake. "Now is the time to accelerate water storage development in Utah," he said. "The economic impact of the 1983 floods will be felt for many years by farmers, landowners, homeowners and the many people in Utah who depend de-pend directly or indirectly on agriculture and food production for their livelihood," the Farm Bureau leader said. "We are confident the Legislature will recognize the necessity of doing everything possible to minimize the damage from another year of flooding in 1984." "With each Utah farm dollar generating at least four-and-a-half dollars in the non-farm economy, it is critical that we maintain a viable agriculture in Utah," Nishiguchi said "Safe Not Sorry Business Insurance" Topic At Breakfast "Safe Not Sorry - Business Insurance" In-surance" will be the topic for discussion at the next "Ask the Experts" Ex-perts" breakfast, sponsored by the Orem Chamber of Commerce Small Business Council.

The breakfast will be held January 12, 7:30 a.m. at Bill and Iva's Refinery, 225 South State in Orem. The breakfast will be an informal in-formal question and answer session on the general discussion topic and will last one hour.
