With the purchase of a special overweight permit, loads up to 86,000 pounds will be allowed on tandem axles, however no overweight allowances are provided for single axles. The proposed regulations increase the gross vehicle weight allowed on the States highways from 79,900 to 80,000 pounds, and allow a five percent overload by special permit. The new federal weight tables will be used to calculate the total gross loads allowable under various axle configurations and spacing. The program is financed by the Accelerated Range Program, which for regulations federal limits passed by Congress in January. If adopted by the Commission, the regulations will become effective for the funds proposed tentatively approved by the Commission in August as an effort to conform Utahs vehicle weight limits with the new equipment and labor for the final planting this year. provides additional federal range improvement projects. 1975 The Utah Transporatation Commission rest-rotatio- Inc., contracted 13. will hold a public hearing Thursday, Nov. 13, on proposed regulations which would change the vehicle weight limits in Utah.

This is one of several reseeding projects underway by the Forest Service. A range analysis done in 1965 determined that Sowers Canyon was overstocked. Forestry personnel decided to plow up the brush and seed the area to improve benefits for range, wildlife, and watershed. The project began in 1969 when 330 acres were seeded. 645 acres were seeded in 1972, and the forest service is currently seeding the final 593 acres of the allotment. A total of 1,568 acres were replanted under the Sowers Canyon project. During the seeding, permitees volunteered to reduce livestock on the allotment by 55 percent. The Forest Service and permittees have outlined a n management system of one unit with rested being grazing, every third year. The area previously seeded produced an average of 1,600 pounds of air dry forage per acre this year for livestock and wildlife. It is expected that at least part of the livestock reduction taken by permittees will he restored in the future. This year, the land was burned, plowed, disked, and drilled with varieties of seed. Alfalfa, yellow sweet clover, small burnett, four wing saltbush, and several grass species were used. The plowing and drilling is contracted to private Arms.

Looking for ways to cut down your food bill? Try chocking to see how much you actually throw away. University of Arizona archaeology researchers conducted a two-yestudy of household waste, checking garbage cans of randomly selected families in Tucson. They found that the average waste was about nine or 10 per cent of a family's total food resources. Significant quantities of food ar items such as whole, uncooked portions of meat or partial loaves of bread made up' 60 per cent of the findings. Scrapings of plates made up the remainder. Projecting from this data, the researchers estimated that Tucson households discarded . about 9,500 tons of food yearly valued at about $10 million. This would feed about 4,000 persons for a year.
