Review Staff Two firms BOUNTIFUL are bidding for a chance to build resource recovery plants in West Bountiful Bountiful. The city is considering proposals from the two firms as alternatives to a resource recovery plant proposed by the Wasatch Front Regional Council for the entire county. If either of the two firms is Bountiful given the would withdraw from the proresource reposed county-wid- e covery plant planned for the north end of the county. That plant needs approval of Clearfield City before construction can begin there. One system, a refuse derived fuel facility (RDF) could be built next to the BARD landfill in e Bountiful, Ron Heyns, a from Warren and Berg Manufacturing, told the council. The $8 to $10 million plant would process all material that could be burned. This material would be burned in the plant at a temperature below the level of combustion, which would eliminate smoke from the plant, Heyns said. Cambridge, a musical group made up of former Sounds of Freedom members will present a concert and dance on July 2 at the West Bountiful Stake Center to lead off West Bountifuls Fourth of July commemorations. The Sounds of Freedom group is a Brigham Young d, University performing troupe who have toured all over the world. Cam- bridge was organized with former members of that troupe. They will present a free concert at 8 p.m. At 9 p.m. they will play for a dance, also free. The city is repre-senttiv- footing the bill for both concert and dance as a way to say thank you for all the volunteer help given in sand- bagging during the recent floods. The dance and concert are family events. The awards for the citys Beautiful Home and Garden contest will be given immediately after the concert on July j Wednesday, June 29, 1983 from the plant which could supply 50 percent of Bountifuls power needs, Heyns said. The plant could process anywhere from 50 to 85 percent of Bountifuls refuse and double the life of BARD, he said. He said the plant could be built and come on line within 18 months if the council gave its approval. He said both Hercules and Thiokol are considering RDF plants and the city could benefit from engineering studies done by the two companies. Also a large plant is coming on line in Florida. The other system, proposed by Don Curtis of Bio Mass International, would separate garbage into various components. He said a $13 million plant could be built next to the BARD landfill which would process 90 percent of the waste coming to the landfill. The plant would use a fermentation process which derives three different components from the garbage cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. From the cellulose, ethanol (or ethyl alcohol) could be derived. He said there is a high demand at present for ethanol, From this process, six particularly megawatts of electricity per hour could be produced, Heyns said. In an emergency situation, the city could switch to power 2. The Fourth itself will be kicked off with a 6 a.m. flag ceremony featuring Michael Deamer, former deputy rney-general for the State of Utah, as speaker. The flag ceremony will take place at the city hall grounds. by oil refineries that use it to produce unleaded gasoline. The hemicellulose could produce yeast which could be used as an animal food supplement. The lignin could be made into small pellets which could be used as fuel in small gasifier units, Curtis said. When the lignin is placed in a gasifier unit, it produces steam. He said a linen supply company in Salt Lake and several hotel and motel firms are interested in purchasing the cubes to be used in the place of natural gas to reduce their utility costs. The Bountiful City Council has studied the possibility of heating its swimming pools with gasifier units. Curtis said he could also have his plant on line within 18 months, or perhaps even sooner. He said his firm could purchase equipment from a defunct Hooper company to be used for the resource recovery plant, which would cut down the plants construction time. The Bountiful City Council has also studied a Wyoming plant that uses the process. Heyns said he could guarantee tipping fees would remain at $6 per ton for the first five years of his operation. Electrical power rates from electricity from the plant could also be set for the next 30 years, giving the city an idea of what power from the plant would cost, Dann Larsen, representing the RDF concept, said. atto- At 6:30 MICHAEL ETHINGTON, 8, Bountiful, swats the birdie back over the net at his mother, Diane Ethington (belaw).

The power commission is a committee that makes recommendations to the city council on pow- er matters. City Manager Tom Hardy rt, said the city council had plans to meet with the Bountiful Power Commission last night. The results of that meeting, however, were not available at press time. Cliff Michaelis, a power de- partment staff member, has been named acting power department manager while the matter is under consideration by the council. Hutchings had said he had decided to retire early because he had felt the city council had lost confidence in his performance. He also said he had lost some of the benefits he had accrued such as some of his vacation, overtime and compensation time. When contacted Thursday, Hutchings said he was waiting to hear whats going on before making any definite plans. When asked if he would reconsider his decision to retire if conditions were right, Hutchings said Were not inflexible, thats for sure.

City officials praised the plan, pointing to the prospect that the shopping center may provide a catalyst to help revitalize the downtown area. The plan for a 42,000 square 292-210- 0. was South and Main Street approved unanimously by the Bountiful City Council. The plan included the rezoning of property on Main Street and 500 South to allow for commercial development. Walt Gasser, representing Albertsons, said he has obtained options to buy seven homes that will be removed to make way for the shopping center. The shopping center will stretch to 100 East and down Main Street to 150 South facing foot Albertsons store and west. The shopping center will neighborhood shopping center cover five acres. on the southeast corner of 500 There will also be some small 298-401- 5. r Tourney Time Two area amateur Classified Editorial golfers won tournaments last week at Davis County courses. - Sports B I i'! help that downtown base. He said he talked to the city engineer who felt the streets running near the shopping center could be modified to handle the increased traffic flow. Gasser said he also did not think parking would be a problem. He said Albertsons had looked for a site in Bountiful to build a store for nearly 2V4 years. He said he had looked at other sites in the city for the shopping center, but most of those sites were undesirable. Property owners were unwilling to sell their property also at some of the sites he said he looked at. We feel this is the only site and the best site for commercial redevelopment now. William B. Phipps, assistant manager for the Millstream a complex for apartments senior citizens, said he was concerned that store customers would park right up against the back of the fence, between the two properties. He said there would also be problems with noise. He said that in the apartments now there are 42 very quiet senior Continued on Page 2A Coming Home Index i 1 shops next to the store, according to Dennis Sheehan, who is also representing the company. The Albertsons store will contain a pharmacy, a deli and a bakery department, according to Sheehan. He said the store will employ between 30 and 50 employees. Also a small office building may be included as part of the development. Gasser said he felt the store would provide a good start for redevelopment and will not deter from the downtown area.
