The the Committee congratulates people of Beaver County and encourages them to submit any other "historical, architectural, or archeological sites" from their area. Sites listed on the State Register will be considered for the National Register, will receive state-wid- e recognition, and will gain some protection from destruction by state financed projects. Once a site is listed on the National Register, it has additional recognition and protection but also becomes eligible for federal matching funds for its restoration and preservation. It would also seem advantageous for each county to establish its own register of sites, which could be more inclusive than either the State or National registers, and from which recommendations could be made for the Review Committee. Those people interested in. historic preservation are asked to contact Mr. Smith at the Utah State Historical Society, 603 E.
