During all four years of his high school career, Bruce took an active part in student government and reached the pinnacle this year when he served as the Dugway studentbody president.

Phil Didericksen was killed in an industrial accident July 30, 1981 after a brilliant high school career at Grantsville High School. Didericksen was a state champion or an allstater in five sports as well as taking an active part in school activities. It would be extremely difficult to find a person that more closely emulates Phil Didericksens As a senior Bruce led Dugway to an 3 record guiding the Mustangs to the quarterfinals for the first time in history before they i 8-- were defeated by the eventual state champion.

The operation, a joint venture between Azeredo Minerals, Incorporated and Combined Metals Reduction Company, proposes to process CMRs mining dumps and ore in the Stocking Mining District. At full capacity, 20 to 30 workers will be employed. The joint venture plans to recover silver and gold from the mining dumps using technology, and will apply technology to minimize environmental degradation. A startup is scheduled if all necessary approvals can be obtained. The operation is currently permitting the proposed project.

Two major objections were ..raised, however. One, commission-- , er expressed concern regarding wind affecting processing opera, tions. A joint venture spokesman stated that an automatic shutoff for excessive winds was incorporated in the plants design. Another commissioner, noting that there were two or three similar operations throughout the county, expressed a desire to consolidate these at one site.

Beat von Allmen, consulting engineer for POMA of America, designers and manufacturers of cable transport systems, told members of the countys tourism committee Tuesday that the project is a wide-ope- ' n venture. In its present planning stage, the project calls for a gondola system to be built in two phases which would transport tourists to a scenic view high above the great Salt Lake. According to Mr. von Allmen, that is just the beginning. The group looked at a slide presentation prepared by Mr. von Allmen of different types of aerial conveyances suited to the specific need of the mecca. POMAs proposal for the first phase includes 7 gondolas, designed to handle up to 400 visitors each hour. Preliminary cost estimates for the detachable gondola system calls for an expenditure of just over $1 million dollars. ' That cost does not include the construction of the system nor the expense of terminal buildings and an information center, all part of the first phase plan. Phase II, which still in the future, calls for extending the lift 3,700 more feet tq a scenic viewpoint closer to the top. Financing the venture is of prime Importance at the present time said Joe Liddell, committee member, and the group is contacting both government and private business Representatives of POMA and the county group met with various state officials whose offices would be concerned in a feasibility study. Still to be decided are type of terminals and location of the visitors center, extent of facilities for visitors, and exact positioning of access roads from the Mr. von Allmen outlined some options for committee members to consider. Economically speaking he said such recreation facilities and sugshould be gested not to cross skiing from their list of possibilities. Because the scenic beauty of the Great Salt Lake is a prime factor in the feasibility of establishing Black Rock Beach Mecca, this could open up opportunities to keep visitors on the mountain with a restaurant where they could watch the famous sunsets on the lake. Marked hiking trails could utilize the geological and archaeological inland sea bed multi-season- that committee members do some brainstorming exploring the many options. It is feasible to have a section of the aerial system going east and west along the beach, a scenic loop drive, open air picnicking facilities that would entice residents of the Wasatch Front to the facility as well as tourists. 'There is no end of possibilities, one committee member said. Black Rock Beach Mecca is expected to be a part of the whole Great Salt Lake Beach Development which stretches eastward to Saltair resort.

Demanding such a purchase, he stated, would allow only large multinational corporations to begin mineral development in the Stock-todistrict.

Persons can obtain the national flood insurance from any of several hundred agents in Utah who have the necessary training from the fed-- 1 eral government. Information about the private insurance, which is a comprehensive disaster policy and which covers catastrophe damage other than flood, can be obtained from the Independent Agents Association of Utah. Before residents can be eligible their home, the community in Management. Although it can take about three weeks for a community to become registered, the criteria for eligibility may be met by local government officials agreeing to cooperate with the federal government in providing information and assisting in identifying flood plain areas. Communities must also be willing to evluate and eliminate or minimize potential damage In these areas. - Once communities are accepted, maps are drawn showing flood plane areas. Anyone in an eligible community is eligible for coverage, regardless of whether or not they live in a designated flood plane. Two different programs exist under the federal flood insurance program, the emergency program and the regular program. Communities start in the emergency program, and enter the regular program after flood plane maps are drawn and differential rates are established for different areas of the community. The regular program uses rates which depend on the location and the nature of the risk and which vary greatly. In addition, the limits in the regular plrogram are much higher; $185,000 on dwellings and $60,000 on dwelling contents. Rates under the regular program start at 1 1 cents per $100.00 and go up from there.

Governor Calls Legislature State legislators will march back to the capitol June 23 for the fourth special session in the past 12 months. Gov. Scott M. Matheson said the session is necessary because funds need to be allocated as a potential source for paying for flood damage. Through an executive order, the governor has directed that most capital expenditures for the next year and mineral lease money be frozen until the legislature can determine necessary appropriations. The money earmarked by the legislature could be several million dollars, according to Gov. Matheson. However, the exact amount and definite projects will be hard to determine cause the flooding season is beginning. be- just IN THIS ISSUI. WEEKLY LVM U CtH.1 ALSO TV USTMD U |
