Moss (D-Utah) Monday introduced in the U.S. Senate legislation to establish an Intermountain Regional Re-gional Development Commission. Fifteen Utah counties in the southern half of the state are listed list-ed in the Moss bill. They are: SANPETE, SEVIER. PIUTE. GAR FIELD, KANE, CARBON, EMERY, GRAND, WAYNE, SAN JUAN, WASHINGTON, IRON, BEAVER, MILLARD and JUAB. Senator Moss said on the floor of the Senate the legislation would provide public works and economic development programs, and plan ning and coordination essential io the development of the Intermoun tain Region. The proposed legisla tion involves a geographic area known as the Four Corners of Utah, Colorado, New Maxico and Arizona. Senator Moss' statement said economic ec-onomic growth has been slowed by a shortage of wa'.er for municipal, agricultural and industrial expansion, expan-sion, by depressed metal prices, by low standard roads and inadequate transportation generally, and by re- auctions in established industries because of changing requirements of the national economy. There are pockets of unemployment and a lack of opportunity for new jobs in the Four Comers Region. One million dollars would be appropriated ap-propriated for use of the Intermountain Inter-mountain Development Authority. Nine members would sit on the Authority, two from each state and a chairman. "The Authority would work with local, county and state governments govern-ments to establish such plans and achieve coordination of all efforts to upgrade the economy of Four Corners in the widest possible way," said Senator Moss. The legislation would also order preparation of detailed plans for the GOLDEN CIRCLE SCENIC HIGHWAY to provide better access to National Parks and Monuments in the four-st ate ArPA and flcwiA to; tea national forest, public lands. Indian Reservations and State Parks. The bill now goes to the Senate Public Works Committee, of which Senator Moss is a member. |
