Doran Kay, council member, said the loan from the Utah State Drinking Water Board will be for $686,000. The face value of the bond will be $686,000 to be repaid over 20 years, said Kay.

See Mona on page 2 GocsmCy ds Little Sahara Sand Dunes has always been popular, said Carter. Yuba used to be the spot I worried about the most because, on Memorial holiday weekend, a lot of water fans would go to the area. Many of those seeking fun and excitement were there for a party time, he said. Law enforcement officers had an almost impossible time trying to control the crowd. Many of them were drunk, used drugs, and caused fights, accidents, littered beaches and, in general, just caused one big headache for me and the other officers. Juab County Commissioners agreed to back up landowners who had property surrounding the lake, the Bureau of Land Management, and Utah State Parks and Recreation officials and close the area to camping, except for the des- recreation areas. In addition to the Little Sahara Sand Dunes, we expect a lot of campers at Burraston Ponds, and in the canyons. We always have a lot of people scattered in camps in the West Desert, he said. Fans of fishing also liked the small streams and the reservoirs in the area. If the weather is warm we will have several thousand, 70,000 or more, people in our county, he said. Every year, as the population grows along the Wasatch Front, we get more and more visitors to our county during holidays. The reason for that, he said, was that there were a lot of fun things to do in the county fishing, boating, d vehicle recreation, and camping. We have a varied terrain and many recreoff-roa- ational opportunities: mountains, desert, water, and sand.
