Show Collectors Road 535 Completed Coastal States Energy announced the completion of Collectors Road 535 leading to their Unit Train Coal Loading Facility near Levan, Utah. This road, which is approximately 12 miles long, was completed under the Resource Development Act. This act encourages the development of our states natural resources by allowing companies to prepay their expected sales tax in order to construct adequate access roads. The road, completed in July, was constructed in cooperation with state and county officials, the Utah Department of Transportation and the company. The layout work and was work engineering handled by Unita Engineering and Cox Rocks of Centerfield was the prime contractor. Prior to construction, studies were made on access problems, routing cost estipossibilities, mates. traffic studies and the percentage of benefits to both company and public. After review and approval by the Utah Department of Transportation Commission, the project was recommended to the State Legislature. This road bill was passed in the fall of 979 at an authorized amount of $350,000. Representative Cary Peterson introduced the bill in the House and Senator Thorpe Wadding-hacarried it through the Senate. The first road to be 1 completed under the Resource Development Act was Collectors Road 464 which provides access to the Southern Utah Fuel Company mine in Convulsion Canyon.

Marvin Higbee Snow College mencement exercises your community collogo At Snow College we have just completed an exercise which focused again to me the quality of our faculty and staff. Weve compiled a "Publications and Service Record describing the special activities of our faculty members. Im reminded by this exercise, in reviewing the materials, that many of our faculty have received not only state-- ide but national attention for their scholarly activities. A couple of examples will demonstrate what 1 mean. Garth Beacham, Prof, of Social Science and Education, has twice presented papers to national conventions and has presented papers to a half dozen regional conferences. Boyd Beck, from our chemistry department, has published over a half dozen articles in national publications. Our athletic director has published a paper in a national publication. Clyde Blauer. in the biology half dozen also has some department, to his credit. publications In addition to various presentations, many have had leadership assignments, and been president of state-wid- e organizations. This would include aid director, Ross Findlay, our financial Snow, Jay Asst. Dean of Students, and Roger Baker, Asst, to . the President. have musicians and artists of our Many performed in both national and regional settings. Another thing that impressed me in review ing this material is that there seemed to be no distinction betwen the productivity of senior and junior faculty members in that even the younger and newer members of our staff were energetic in their scholarly activities. People like English department members, Mary Ann Christison and Greg Clark, have followed the lead of humanities division chairman Demon! Howell in being-activin scholarly activities. 1 know it is sometimes dangerous to mention names as i have done in this article because inevitably many have been left off who are making outstanding contributions to the institution. Perhaps I could take opportunities in some future column to go into greater detail regarding the accomplishments of some of these individual faculty and staff members of which we are so proud. J. J.
