Scott Matheson a highway safety bill whicn will let motorists speed up to 9 m.p.h. over the speed limit without fear of losing their licenses. The House Wednesday ratified a Sonatp version of the bill which con tains an amendment allowing motorists to go nine miles over posted limits and be subject, if cited, only to a fine. There would no penalty points assestoward the revocation of the motorist's driver's license. Senators, disgruntled with the 55-p h speed limit, added the amendment to a bill which makes Utah's Idghav Safety Code nearly identical to that of other states. sed The im pose of the bill is to achieve national uniformity of traffic regulations so that cross country motorists do not have to familiarize themselves - spending on sewage treatment facilities. Matheson. chairman of the subcommittee on water management of the National Governors Conference, appeared before the House Public Works Committee's water resources subcom- mittee.

"Disconnections of gas and electrical service, under the severe conditions of winter, can present a grave danger to human life and a serious hazard to health." UCAA Chairman Bill Biggs said the winter constituted "an energy crisis for the low income and elderly. "The extreme cold weather the past week has amplified the crisis caused by higher and higher rates. Winter has been here for several months and after three or four huge gas or electric bills people are reaching the breaking point." He said his organization had received a "tremendous" volume of calls from persons facing shutoffs. "These people have nut been shut off but they are close to it or in absolute fear of it. "We know the utility companies are trying the best they can, but no one should be cut c ff in this cold weather." Biggs said it the PSC fails to act "we think the utilities should and will be willing to negotiate some kind of understanding with our association." The UCAA is composed of Utah's six community action agencies and Utah Issues Information, the Coalition of Senior Citizens, the Utah Minority Coalition, the Utah Migrant Council The SALT LAKE CITY (UPI Utah Community Action Association has asked the Public Service Commission to order a halt to electric and gas shutoffs where they might endanger human life. The UCAA filed a formal petition for a moratorium Wednesday with the PSC. and also asked that Gov. Scott Matheson call an emergency meeting ol utility representatives, the state energy coordinator and community groups to discuss methods of implementing the ban. ''' .

The result, he said, is that the projects covered by the Water Pollution Control Act have moved forward "in fits and starts. "Past federal funding has never matched the ambitious programs imposed by the act, and the gap between piograms and available resources has grown wider with the passage of time, population growth and the complexities of the program," he said.

The amendment prohibits a judge trom issuing penalty points in cases involving "minimum violations'' of the posted speed limit. A minimum violation of a 55-p h. posted limit would be speeding up to 64 m.p.h. The law now on the books assesses a motorist 60 penalty points for any speeding violation. Once a driver has accumulated 200 points, his license is revoked. Proponents of the amendment in the state's upper house argued successfully that the 55 m.p.h. limit was imposed by the federal government to conserve fuel. They said it was unfair to assess points, which are issued on the belief that a speeder is a safety hazard, when a driver fails to conserve fuel. They said exceeding 55 m.p.h. in wide - open areas did not constitute a Matheson Argues for Utah Gov.
