Burning permits arc not a means of restricting the public from open burning. It is however a way by which all fire fighting agencies are made aware of your controlled burn, thus reducing the need and cost of fire fighters responding to a reported fire which turns out to be a controlled fire. A written permit also allows the fire control officer a chance to meet with you to assist you in establishing guidelines for a safe controlled fire.

A MX litigation filed Two Utah state senators and a Nevada Stale assemblyman filed a lawsuit June 8. 1981 against United States government officials stating that the process by which MX missile basing mode decisions were made is illegal. The Complaint asks that a new decision-making process be started which will comply with federal law. Joining the legislators as plaintiffs in the suit arc the Great Basin MX Alliance Legal Defense Fund, a coalition of Nevada and Utah citizens' organizatons and Citizen Alert, a Nevada citizens organizaiton. Utah State Senator Frances Farley Lake), Utah Senate Majority Leader. Karl N. Snow, Jr. and Nevada State Assemblyman Paul Prengaman Reno), said that they had decided to file suit because basic decisions on the MX were made by the United States without complying with environmental requirements or consulting state officials, as required bv law. They concluded that immediate legal challenge was essential because the present MX decisionmaking process should consider the delects of those earlier decisions. The lawsuit challenges decisions that were made, primarily by the Carter Administration, beginning before I9?8. The central complaint is that, without required environmental analysis. the government made the fundamental decision to deploy the MX missiles under a "multiple aimpoint" sttalegv. Adoption of that shell game strategy made it inevitable that massive environmental would consequences result from its deployment regardless nl the region or particular type of shelter ultimately used to implement the shell game strategy. Full development of information to assist those decisions is required bv the National Environment Policv Act (NF.PA) and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act t POLICE be can the her here with Myrtle Beauregard, worked to quilt this of $1.00, to benefit the Chief a drawing for the quilt on the 18 women (FI.PMA). Yet, because of the failure to de- velop and analyze that information, the environmental impacts likely to be caused by the basing mode decisions were understood neither by the decision-makers nor by the public at the time the decisions were made. As a result, the original decisions on the basing mode failed to consider the massive impacts that would follow from any "shell game" deployment. The decisions also failed to weigh those impacts in light of alternatives that might have produced the desired military results w ith less substantial impact. A further problem with the earlier MX decisions was that the multiple shelter system was selected without considering the expansion of the system that is likely to be undertaken if the Soviets were to respond bv expanding the present first strike capacity. Incredibly, the effect on the environment of an all-onuclear attaik on the system was also totally ignored; and the Air Force has recently acknowledged that it has made no study ol the possible impacts on the human environment of nuclear attack on the MX system. I he legal action is against the main governmental agencies responsible for the MX program and their chief administrators. These include the Department of Defense and Caspar Weinberger. Secretary of Defense; the Department of the Interior and James Watt. Secretary of the Interior; the Interior Department's Bureau of land Management and Robert F. Hurtord, Director of the Bureau of Land Management; the United States Air Force and Vern Orr. Secretary of the Air Force, and Ronald Reagan. President of the United States.
