This was the gist of a letter from the Utah State Department of Health to the General Services Administration in answer to a request for a statement from the Federal agency pertaining to the environmental impact incident to releasing the Castle Valley job Corps Center to Carbon County for use as an industrial park. The state department stated its main concern in development of this property as an industrial park will be centered in the problems of industrial hygiene, air lollution, domestic water supply and waste disposal. The Center is considerably isolated from other habitation for which reason it is our feeling that any future adverse impact on the environment will be minimal and acceptable," the state departments letter stated, after describing the culinary water and waste water systems servicing the Center. The matters of industrial hygiene and air pollution are not possible of definition at present since neither nature or extent of future industrial activity are presently known. Utah statutes covering these matters, however, are felt to be sufficiently comprehensive to properly control such problems as they arise.
