Provo City has spent $33,000 on empty bags and $1,662.50 on sand so far, says Kenneth Lee-thaParks Superintendent.

Volunteers have already the city's inital purchase of 350 tons of sand and Provo is buying more, Leetham says. The sand bags will dike public facilities and private homes threatened by the flood. A Tongan LDS Branch in the Provo West Stake helped fill 3,500 bags last week as part of an eagle service project for bagged Michael Dennis. water shed are working to fill a quota of 30,000 sandbags that will dike public areas. So far, volunteers have filled 19,000 said one BYU coed handling a heavy shovel that night. Except for the Tongans, most volunteers make a quiet group digging fast and steady with little energy left for talk. Big groups start with several tons of sand and leave only when neat stacks of plump bags have replaced the mountain. Leetham says the sandbags will definately help the Parks Department save public facilities. Those interested in joining a group can call the Parks Department at Provo City, for a time to come and directions to the water shed. Private individuals can also purchase bags for their homes, at Provo City's cost, from any Provo Fire Department. These bags can be filled for free at one of three Provo sand Fort Utah Park stockpiles Parking Lot, 150 N. Geneva Road; Rock Canyon Debris Basin, 2620 N. 1200 E.,; Mouth of Slate Canyon Debris Basin, bags. Dennis, son of LeRoy Dennis, director of Provo City parks and recreation, organized a sandbagging crew from all the wards in his stake. "Those big, strong Tongans were throwing those sandbags around like they were silk handkerchiefs. They really worked with spirit," says Scoutmaster, Richard Bradford. "They were chanting and and having a great time." About 300 sandbags went to widows in the Stake. Afterwards, the Tongans celeat brated with a Fort Utah Park. singing bar-be-q- Each bag holds 83 pounds of sand. Sandbaggers at the city "We've had really good response," says Jerry Johnson, park maintenance supervisor for Provo. "We've had at least 1,000 people down here," Leetham says. At first, the park asked volunteers to fill sand only on weekends. Last week they made it a nightly job and after volunteers finish this Saturday, the city plans to call citizens back if crises situations arise. "We do know the lake is going to flood and our dikes will help. What we don't know is how fast spring runoff will melt," Leetham says. The community comes to small help in all size groups bundles of service oriented individuals, or 100 BYU students who hold the city's sandbagger record for filling nearly 5,000 bags in one night.

Second Viaor Utah Highway Washed Out By United Press International For the second time in two days, wet weather forced the closure today of a major Utah highway. A flooded portion of U.S. Highway 6 and 50 west of a Hinckley to the boarder was scheduled for indefinite closure as late today. Errosion, apparently caused by an unusually strong flow of water from an underground Utah-Nevad- spring, washed out a section of U.S. Highway 40 Sunday, cutting off traffic between Silver Creak Junction and Heber City. One lane of traffic was open on U.S. 40 today, with flagmen controlling the flow of vehicles. Utah Transportation spokeswoman Whitney said the problem on U.S. 6 and 50 was caused by flooding from the Sevier River. She said the flooded section of road is 30-fo- ot major route. Traffic which normally uses the flooded highway will be detoured to Milford on State Route 257, then west to Nevada on State Route 21. Ms. Whitney said the detour will take motorists about 150 miles out of their way, but she said no other roads are avaialble in that portion of southwestern Utah. Ms. Whitney said the piece of road near Heber fell away at about noon Sunday. Fortun Mono Puts Nusiance Law on Hold Mona residents have NEPHI until the first week of April to voice opinions on a town nusiance ordinance proposal. Though the ordinance could have quite an effect on the town's homeowners, public comment has been sparse, according to board members. The draft copy states whatever is damaging to, human life or health, and whatever renders soil, air, water or food impure or unwholesome is declared to be a nuisance and unlawful. It is also illegal for any person, owner, agent or occupant to contribute to or maintain a nusiance. Specifics would include befouling water, allowing litter to accumulate, failure to provide sanitary privy conditions for dwelling or factory, obstructing streets, sidewalks, lakes or any public park and having unsightly weeds and vegetation. ately, she said, there was no traffic on the section of highway, one mile east of Peoa, at the time it gave way. She said it will take UDOT crews about five days to repair the damage. "A ballpark figure of the cost is between $40,000 and $50,000," she said.
