Show Vandals destroy property in parks of number The recrationists visiting and enjoying Bureau of Land Management - administered public lands in Utah is rising, and unfortunately, so is vandalism. Graffiti, litter, arson, theft, and destruction are the calling cards of vandals. Vandalism is as old as civilization. The ancient city of Rome was plagued by arson, graffiti and other forms of destruction. In fact, the term, "vandal," comes from an ancient tribe of barbarians called Vandals, who looted and ravaged Rome. The cost of preventing vandalism is high, but the price of repairing and replacing public property is even higher. "In Utah this year, the Bureau of Land Management has about $40,000, spent including the cost of replacing destroyed equipment and facilities," noted Paul L. Howard, BLM state director for Utah. However, the $40,000 price tag does not include vandalism to archeological sites. "Here the price can not be measured in dollars," said Howard. Of all vandalism committed on public lands, defacing and destroying archeological sites is the most frustrating, childish and senseless behavior of adults. "There is no cost to the public in dollars" said Howard, referring to archeological destruction. "The price can only be measured in Ml y BOLD, BEAUTIFUL BMX INSPIRED Cantilever frame with "tank" insert BMX style handlebar nasuc man-hour- numDer pidie , New color styling we Ttnuio it i social coabiutioa of fine Sdmim quality Miotrnctioi art link MI styling Designed lot coneotioul nding M ft street er sideialk, H it tide" ttut mm Scfcwiw. l ptrftct tiaieak Um The Note: An error appeared in last week's ad.

Most BLM signs are at remote trail or road junctions which makes replacing them difficult. These signs also the are only guideposts to thousands of recreationists fishing, hiking, or just seeking solitude. Besides the obvious recreational inconvenience to the public, the cost of replacing signs is high. A small sign will run about medium-size- d a $25; explanatory sign, and a large sign, about $500 to $1,000. This cost does not include the wages of BLM personnel replacing a sign.
