The study notes that school enrollments in Utah, which have been more-or-les- s level during recent years, are once again beginning to rise. By the mid-paof the 1980 decade, approximately 15,000 additional students will be entering the Utah school system each year. In addition, the study notes rt more in '77 tnat general fund appropriations for higher education were set at $102,936,000 for the coming year by the 1976 Budget Session. This sum represents an increase of $14.6 million, or 16.5 above the adjusted level for 197576. Included in the final appropriation total for 1976-7- 7 is $1,822,000 in additions to the amounts allocated for higher education. These additions made by an amendment to the general appropriations act in the final minutes before adjournment of the 1976 Budget Session served to bring the overall appropria tion total for higher educatin' close to the level recomended by the State Board of Regents. last-minu- te m zb The report observed that no change will be made in general resident tuitions at Utah public colleges and universities for next year.

We in East Juab County that is we north of the top of the ridge are part of the Great Salt Lake Drainage basin, and the study concerns us.

Here is a summary of the management plan: In October 1972, the United States Congress passed the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The stated objective of the Act is to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nations waters. To achieve this objective, three types of planning programs pertinent to the Western Salt Lake Basin are authorized by the act. The most general is the Basin Planning Program. It is in- tended to identify the water quality problems in seriously afflicted areas of the basin and then to develop the specific institutional and management programs and general technical strategy to solve all existing and anticipated water quality problems. The third pertinent planning is reprogram authorized by P. L. ferred to as the Facilities Planning Program. The funding in this program is intended to assist in the design and construction of facilities to solve the water quality problems of the state. The Western Great Salt Lake Basin study presently under consideration fulfills the requirements of the Basin Plan. It provides an assessment of baseline data and forecast information on basin water quality demography and population. Water Quality data obtained through a minimal stream monitoring program was used to assess existing water quality. The Utah State water quality standards and criteria were reviewed to assure their adequacy for defining water quality problems. Population, economics, and land use were evaluated for impact on water quali- 6 foor-yea- r county commission post sale for new schools Voters of Juab School District said no on the proposed bonding for construction of a new high school and a new middle school in the bonding election conducted Tuesday.
