One tree for every Utahn is the goal of the "Million Trees For A Million People" Bicentennial Bicen-tennial Program and the Utah Department of Transportation has supported this goal by planting 13,549 trees since the program began, more than enough en-ough to represent the combined com-bined populations of Piute, Rich, Wayne, Daggett, Beaver and Morgan Counties. The UDOT has made Provo's North University Avenue a tree-lined boulevard by planting 96 trees along its right-of-way. The department has also planted 3,535 trees along 1-15 from north Orem to south Orem. As part of the largest landscape lands-cape project ever undertaken in southern Utah, the UDOT has planted 4,160 trees along 1-15 in Cedar City from the north city limits to the south city limits. In the Salt Lake area, the department has planted 2,763 trees along 1-80 from 300 West to 500 sEast, and currently the department is in the process of planting 2,995 trees along the 1-215 Belt Route on the east side of the Salt Lake Valley from 1-80 to 4500 South. In the near future, the UDOT will open bids on a project which will line Salt Lake City's Second South Street with more than 2,600 trees between 1-15 and Redwood Red-wood Road. UDOT Landscape Architect Laird Larsen said the department depart-ment is pleased to participate in the Million Trees Program and commemorate the nation's birthday with projects that will improve the quality of life in Utah. He said the department has designed the projects to not only please motorists, but also adjacent property owners. "We like to be good neighbors," neigh-bors," he explained. Mr. Larsen said some 18 varieties var-ieties of trees have been planted plant-ed in the projects, each one selected to be compatible with the environment. All of the trees, he said, are being watered by automatic irrigation irriga-tion systems. "It will take about five years for these projects to mature and reveal their true beauty, but that's the nice thing about landscaping projects unlike other highway projects, they improve with age," he said. AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN THURSDAY, JULY 29. 1976 j I Progress begins with getting a clear view of the goal. "Certainly we have place to store it ... in our range.' U.S. 1975 Death Toll Down Preliminary figures indicate that the national accident fatality fata-lity toll for 1975 is down 3 percent in all areas compared with 1974. According to the Utah Safety Safe-ty Council one thousand fewer workers died from on - the -job accidents in 1975 than in 1974, according to preliminary data released by the National Safety Council. This resulted in an all-time low death rate of about 14 per 100,000 U.S. workers. Work fatalities dropped from 13,400 in 1974 to 12,400 in 1975, for a decrease of about 7 percent. Excluding agriculture, agricul-ture, the 1975 occupational death toll was 10,400, of which 1,500 fatalities occurred in manufacturing industries. The previous low was established in 1974 when the work death rate was 15 for every 100,000 workers. The death rate stood at about 17 per 100,000 employees emplo-yees in 1973 and 1972. The highest death rate was recorded record-ed in 1937 when work-related accidents killed 43 out of every 100,000 workers.
