The proposed Land and Resource new Management Plan is not a to Ranger Ben according program Black, but a continuation of an existing program with the Forest Service. But some of the recently identified local, regiona, and national issues and management concerns, and resource use or development portunities relating to this Forests management are not fully resolved in the existing plans. A summary of the Forest Services Draft Environmental Impact Statement explains the need to more fully resolve those issues, concerns, and opportunities and to update and set of display information in a that actions integrates proposed management direction for all Forest resources. The proposed actions and set of alternatives to these proposed actions prescribes management of the Forest for the next 50 years with to 15 mandatory reviews each 10 years.

Ferron Mountain Road in the Ferron Ranger District is slated for closure and Harts Draw (part only) is listed in the Monticello Ranger District. Also in the Monticello District, Dark Canyon will be shifted as a motorized trail.

"No road closures are imminent, according to Balck. However, one area will remain roadless, he said.

Items from 13 categories were carted away along with plant records and the operation was closed down. Rampton said it has been difficult for Norbest to carry on any kind of investigation into alleged charges that rejected turkey meat was being introduced into processed turkey products, because the FBI has this vital information in its possession. developed recreation site, recreation According to Rampton, the FBI motorized developed was contacted by a confidential key sites, semiprimitive recreation, source in a position to know who e winter range, general big made the allegation.

No products recalled As of Monday, no turkey products have been recalled, because there has been no word that the alleged charges prompting the investigation have been founded. However, distributors of the products have been contacted and are being asked to hold all product sales until the investigation is completed, Rampton said. This was done to get the products under Norbest control in case a recall was necessary, he said. Since the plant is new, distribution is limited. It's not as if the product was being distributed across the United States " Rampton stressed that NORPRO the only operation under investigation and no other operation is involving processing, packaging, sale or distribution of Norbest fresh or frozen whole turkeys, including the Moroni Processing Plant, is involved. Moroni Processing has some limited further processing facilities for Norbest as does the processing plant in Pelican Rapids, Minn., but neither operations require cooking, Rampton said, and neither is being investigated. NORPRO was being operated under a joint venture between Norbest and the Utah Turkey Growers Association.
