J. Gidney, director of the construction and supply division of the Grand Junction AEC office. Heavy equipment belonging to the government and Nielsen, Inc., of Dolores has been working on the main tailing pond this week leveling and filling in preparation to covering the pond with dirt. Approximately 225 tons of barn- yard fertilizer have been hauled to the mill area and will be used on the dirt fill. If weather permits the filling and seeding portion of the program are to be next Summer. Purpose of the filling and planting, according to Mr. Gidney, is twofold as the covering will, from a safety standpoint, keep the tailings from sifting with the wind and will also remove the hazard of humans or animals wandering into the pond, which in some places would be of quicksand consistency. Another advantage to the seeding will be to beautify the area and bring the ground back to a productive use. Preliminary work at the site is expected to cost in the neighborhood of $80,000, which will include the filling and seeding phase. Plans call for seeding with a mixture of wheat grasses of the crested variety. Supervising the operation locally is Frank (Bo) Montella, resident completed by Oct. 31, lijr. Gidney said, and further work of installing sprinklers and clearing of drainage channels will continue manager at the plant.

The agreement covers areas adjacent to Monticello which to date had no fire protection and since the county had no-fi-re fighting equipment or personnel, provisions of Utah law were checked and it was found that the city could furnish such protection under an agreement with the county government. Areas which will be covered include the rural district north of town bounded by Carlisle, the area south bounded by Verdure, east of town to Eastland and bounded on the west by Baker Ranger Station. Terms of the agreement provide that should a conflict of interest arise w'hereby there are fire calls in both the rural and city sections the city call will have precedence. In order to comply with provisions of law the county agrees to pay the city the sum of $1 for each rural fire call made by the city trucks. The agreement is for a period of five years.
