Council was favorable to the request, but funds are not immediately available They encouraged Badback to pursue all other funding sources and will take action at the next council meeting. Council will soon establish a policy regarding the responsibility and liability of the city and property owners in disputes over sewer problems. The whose fault is it? question is always debatable and the city has not been consistent in dealing with it. Council hopes to formulate a policy in the near future. Council heard from Keith Campbell of Petrolane regarding the impact on Petrolanes business in the event natural gas is brought into Blanding. They may have to cut back to one or two employees. Campbell cautioned council that many homes cur- rently using propane will require extensive updating to convert to natural gas. Any home with a system over ten years old may require as much as $1,200 to state, however, that this process would bring up safety standards in homes with unsafe piping systems. Two public hearings are scheduled for Wednesday, May 22 at City Hall. At 6 p.m., San Juan County will conduct a hearing regarding a proposed recreation district. At 7:05, Blanding City will receive input regarding a grant application to the Community Impact Board for funds to add improvements to the CEU College pavilion and stage, and to purchase additional land. accept natural gas.

Andrew Tso, Aneth Chap- ter Navajo National Council delegate and UNDC board member, expressed concern about keeping Cedar Mesa open for Native Americans to continue gathering wood and herbs and to practice religious ceremonies. He cautioned that restrictions on access to Cedar Mesa would violate the Na- tive American Religious Freedom Act, which promises protection of tradi- tional usage for Native Americans. San Juan County officials said they do not see how the county will benefit by wilderness and local officials. Owens stated that the land in question is federal land and that a wilderness bill will be passed. His purpose for meeting with local officials, Owens said, is to make the bill easier for the county and its people to adapt to. Monticello had wind gusts up to 60 miles per hour on Friday, May 10.
