To remedy the emergency situation another meeting was set later this week at both reservoirs to see the areas. of Representatives county, Utah Parks Recreation the and department, Division of Wildlife Resource, Bureau of Land Management, RC&D, Utah and Box Elder Federation Wildlife representatives, and Lynn and Etna shareholders will meet again there. Etna reservoir shareholders outlined their problems during the meeting. They are as follows: There is a terrific ac- cumulation of debris and human excretion. There is a question as to how to handle damage and trespassing. "There is the question of liability. How will the shareholders be reimbursed for leaving carry over water in the reservoir so fish will survive until the next season. The irrigation company said HOga it costs them between $1,500 and $2,500 to do this. Division Stand Rensel said, with the completion of the reservoir in 1961 it was felt that it should be stocked. Since there were state free interest funds were loaned to the company it is felt that the reservoir is under state ownership until it is paid off, and should be open to fishing. Stocked Each Year commented that about 20,000 fingerlings are put in Etna each year and there is a good supply of carry over fish. Its a good recreation area for local and state residents, he said. Rensel explained that conservation Officer Ken Kimber of Snowville had been emptying the trash barrels but it wasnt He his job to do this. The fish and game also put in a cattle guard and posts to keep vehicles off the dike. Sportsmens Funds funds were these things," he Sportsmens used to do explained.

He also said that the irrigation companies have full rights as long as payments are kept up and the reservoirs are kept in working condition. Land Available A spokesman for the BLM advisory board said the bureau would make available any land at the reservoir for any agency or group to develop, but his department doesnt have the funds to do anything. Dwain Lind, representing the South Junction Creek Water Users said Lynn has the same problem as Etna but about half the size. He stressed more citations and a stricter attitude toward littler violators and vandals. The idea of making these reservoirs fee areas to take over the cost of maintaining the restrooms and garbage pickup was also hashed around. Still all agencies involved shied away from taking this responsibility. Plan of Action RC&D officials approved a proposal before closing the meeting to assist all groups involved in improving a plan of action. They said they would help study the problem and find a way to get improved recreation facilities at both reservoirs.
