in the 1984 fire at utility's Wilberg Mine in central Utah the parties announced The settlement resolves a $250 million consolidated lawsuit filed by relatives of the 26 men and one woman killed in Utah's worst coal mine fire Terms of the agreement which involves all 27 families were not disclosed The Salt Lake Tribune quoted a source as saying the figure was about $22 million The miners were attempting to world production set a record for mining machines in the Wilberg's 5th Right section when fire broke out Dec 19 1984 near the section's intersection with the main set of tunnels that extended to the area from the surface One man escaped but the others were overcome by carbon monoxide gas and smoke Preliminary results of a federal Mine Safety and Health Administration investigation determined the fire probably was caused by an air compressor with two defective safety devices that may have been left running inadvertently for as long as two days MSHA's formal report is expected to be published this spring A statement prepared jointly by the parties Thursday said the suit was settled because "it was felt that protracted litigation would have benefited no one It is hoped that this settlement will allow the families to continue the healing process" The families wrongful death suits initially filed piecemeal in 4th District Court contended that UP&L and Savage Industries Inc which formerly operated ths mine through subsidiary Emery Mining Corp claimed the victims lied because the Wilberg Mine lacked escape routes had inadequate fire detection and protection systems and a ventilation system that was unsafe if a fire broke out UP&L spokesman John Ward said the families asked that officials not disclose terms of the settlement The joint statement said "Settlement payments have been tailored to the needs of the individual families Some of the money will be paid immediately but the majority of payments will be deferred to help the families manage the funds wisely "Utah Power will fund most of the settlement and will continue with a previously filed lawsuit that seeks to force liability insurance companies to reimburse Utah Power for the settlement costs" it added UP&L filed suit in US District Court in January against four liability insurance carriers for Emery Mining and 30 of the utility's general liability insurance companies The utility asked the court to force the insurance companies to negotiate a settlement or to pay UP&L to do so and it also sought damages for the insurance carriers' hesitancy to reach an agreement Coyotes killed Controversial program defended By JIM WRIGHT outdoors editor LOGAN — Helicopter gunners killed four coyotes on and around the Mount Naomi wilderness Thursday in the first of three flights approved by the US Forest Service One coyote was killed on the wilderness area and three others outside the boundary said Dave Baumgartner Logan District Ranger The helicopter flew for about three hours and spent about 50 minutes flying over three areas in the wilderness The shooting was done by the Animal Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) as a form of predator control requested by sheep herders who graze their flocks on and around Mount Naomi Baumgartner said Mount Naomi is located northeast of Logan in the Bear River range The controversial helicopter shooting must be done following a snowfall when fresh coyote tracks are visible from the air and the animal can be followed and shot Baumgartner said The lack of new snow and unsafe winds kept the helicopters grounded until Thursday Helicopter shooting has met with repeated protests from the Utah Wilderness Association and the Sierra Club who contend it violates a number of provisions of the federal Wilderness Act which generally forbids motorized access Mount Naomi was included in the federal wilderness system under the 1984 Utah Wilderness Act The conservation groups also contend it hasn't been proven coyotes are causing serious losses of sheep admitted the Baumgartner shooting is an activity not normally associated with wilderness but he defends it as having the least impact on other uses of the wilderness area By shooting only in the winter when few people visit the area recreation is not disrupted he said Baumgartner said Congress allowed existing livestock management practices to continue when the Utah Wilderness Act was passed Helicopter shooting has been done on Mount Naomi since 1972 he said Sheep ranchers claim to have lost at least 91 sheep to coyotes on Mount Naomi in 1986 APHIS confirmed 57 kills K Mary
