The Millard County municipalities are among some 83 other Utah cities which missed a Dec. 1985 deadline for filing the plans. Despite the missed deadlines the state Bureau of Water Pollution Control is not upset. We feel we have gotten a lot of cooperation from people in getting into the process of developing plans, said Fred Pehrson, chief of permits. It was expected that there would be a lot of questions as to just what the requirements are. This has led to delays, i7e said. The recent addition to the Wastewater Disposal ' Regulations wis writterrto instlfe that wastewater districts properly plan torgrowth and maintenance ot their systems.

Citing the lack of funds for capital improvements in the city budget, Volunteer Fire Chief Harold Ford is calling for the formation of a fire district to serve Cortez and adjacent rural areas. Ford said that while the city provides his department with a maintenance budget of around $60,000, there isnt enough money to pay for new equipment. Forming a fire district would require a petition bearing at least 200 signatures be filed with the District Court. Once the court had approved the peititon, it would declare a special election, at which time district directors would also be chosen. asks county help Mining group to build a A . . .
