The money for PILT comes from commercial activities on federal lands such as oil and gas leasing and livestock grazing and timber harvesting. For the third year in a row, Secretary Norton is sending PILT checks three months earlier than in the past. "The accelerated payment schedule makes it easier for state and local governments to budget for the upcoming fiscal year, w hich begins July for many jurisdictions. Norton said. These federal payments to county governments may be used for any governmental purpose. PILT payments are computed and disbursed by the Bureau of Land Management on or before September 30th of each year. The payments provide additional support to county governments 1 that have certain federal land within their boundaries. PILT payments have been used to help improve local school, water, and road systems. Payment eligibility is reserved for local governments (usually counties) that provide services such as those in PILT related to public safety, environment, housing, social services, and transportation, and that contain nontaxable federal lands Juab County will receive 8G32.325 as its share of theSl!)

The Utah Safety Council estimates that nationvv ide 27. GOO people will be injured and G13 people will die on the highways. If every person riding in a motor vehicle buckled up over the holiday weekend, an additional 173 lives nationwide, including three Utahns could be saved. We have made great strides in the effort to get motorists and safety belts to buckle-uare proven lifesavers. yet only S3 2 of Utahns wear them. Motorists traveling at high speeds, driving impaired or carelessly, and not using safety belts jeopardize every of how careful or skilled a driver they may be. To help keep motorists safe during this holidav week p ve- offers these driving tips: Watch your speedometer. The majority of fatal crashes are speed related. There is greater risk of being involved and seriously injured in a motor vehicle crash when driving at higher speeds. Speed limits exist for your safety. Buckle-uto save lives. Using your safety belt is the single most effective way you can reduce the chances of serious injury or death in a car crash. Wearing a safety belt can increase your chance of surviving by as much as 50 percent. Whenever you travel in a car, do not leave the driveway without making sure that each passenger is properly secured in a safety belt or child safety seat. Six out of ten children killed in crashes are not restrained. Children age 12 and under should always ride in the p hicles with air bags. Drinking and driving dont mix. Never drink, and drive. Alcohol and crashes are 6.7 times more likely to be fatal than drug-relate- d crashes. Take a vacation on the road. When taking longer trips, allow enough travel time so that you can take frequent breaks. Make frequent stops for light snacks and exercise. If you are too tired to drive, stop and rest.

The Utah State Legislature enacted H.B. 90 during the 200 4 legislative session, which changed the date 1 from July 1, 2005 to July 1, on which a person can 200 be admitted to a child abuse, neglect, or dependency hearing in juvenile court. During the 2003 legislative 1 session, legislators passed H.B. 222 to allow expanded access to abuse, neglect, and dependency hearings in two pilot districts: Third District Juvenile Court (Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele counties) and Sixth District Juvenile Court (Garfield, Kane, Piute, Sanpete, Sevier, and Wayne counties). When H.B. 90 goes into effect July 1, 2004, juvenile courts statew ide w ill open to the public. The public can now ob serve the proceedings and gain a far greater understanding of how child welfare cases are handled, said Ray Wahl, juvenile court administrator for the Administrative Office of the Courts. Our hope is that by allowing additional access to juvenile court, the public will come away with a greater understanding of the child protection system." The change in access w ill now allow family and friends to attend hearings to support family members. About 3,500 dependency referrals are received by juvenile court each year. Juvenile court judges maintain authority to close juvenile court proceedings if grounds exist to close the hearing. For example, if closing a proceeding is in the best interest of the child, if having others in the courtroom will impair the process, or if allowing access is contrary to the interest of justice. The mission of the Utah Courts is to provide an open, fair, efficient, and independent system for the advancement of justice under the law. fact-findin- iWutah Press ASSOCIATION!
