March control the victim. According to handouts from social services, that shouldnt be the case, and the victim should Canyon snow removal policy Policies and procedures regarding winter snow removal in canyon areas will be reviewed by the Utah Department of Transportations Maintenance Standards Committee. The Committee will study snow plow policies as currently practiced by the Departments six districts to determine if they are comparable. One policy to be reviewed is daylight plowing versus an all hours plowing policy. The Department has received requests to expand snow plow operations in some canyons beyond the current daytime periods. The maintenance Standards Committee will examine the benefits of expanding operations as well as possible safety risks equipment operators could be exposed to if nighttime plowing is allowed. The goal of the policy review is to assure that snow removal practices ah consistent throughout all areas such as fear of losing her financial support, or denying the incident because she refuses to believe its possible. Sometimes the spouse might even encourage the relationship, because the child is fulfilling a need or role that the parent no longer desires to. Draper said that if a victim couldn't turn to the parents for help, (such as ifone parent was Gie abuser and the other denied it), then turning to a teacher, clergy or religious leader, law enforcement official, doctor or social service person, were valid alternatives to "suffering in silence. "The abuser must be controlled", Draper explained, "and the only way to do that is to bring the situation to someone's attention, so that help can be provided." Parents can help prevent child al abuse , by persons outside the home by informing them about what to be aware of and watch out for, as well as having children informing their parents of any ind-- 1 dents and then reporting suspected incidents to the proper authorities. Community members can help fight child sexual abuse by being aware of potential problems and sym ptoms of possible abuse in children and reporting them to the proper officials. Some of tiie possible "symptoms of an abused child include physical problems; poor academic perform ance an d failure to relate to other children their age. Draper said that some "typical" characteristics of a family that might have a child sexual abuse problem could include wanting to keep themselves "isolated from the community, alcoholism or other substance abuse, parents wanting to keep social contacts by the children under tight control, to the point of not allowing them any friends or to participate in afterschool activities, among other things. These things could mean that child sexual abuse is involved within that family. Draper said that too often the victim felt "responsible for what happened and that there were feelings of guilt and shame and that such feelings were unfounded, but sometimes used by the abuse to tion on. Several former business committee members were called upon to provide a background on previous efforts and give their thoughts on the issues, especially Maxie Chapoose and Frank Arrochis. One concern raised was that if previous treaties and agreements were not being honored, or only being honored by the tribe, how could the tribe expect a new agreement to make any difference? Business committee members responded that agreements would be enforced, throui legal channels and that the new agreement would add weight and further backing to those previous agreements. During the informational meeting, several timee tribal members gave summaries of key points and issues in Ute for thebenefitof some of the elders of the tribe and there were several passionate discussions on the issue and how something did need to be done on the issue, regardless of whether the petition passed or not. Then tribal business committee members took individual points of the agreement and explained, in detail what the agreement called for on the issue. Maxine Natchees took claim number one. on the reensnition of water rights, which addressed the apportionment of waters from the Colorado River System in perpetuity with the depletion of water in the amount of 385,595 t, including groundwater recognised in perpetuity as the tribes, with the priority date of Oct 3, 186L The recognition also included water from the Hill Creek extension and the fact that there would be further negotiation on other waters promised to the tribe. Committee member Wilford Conetah covered claims two and three on the rights of the tribe to lease water off the reservation and the water storage projects ofWhit-erocand Taskeetch Dams. The first claim would give the tribe the right to claim the water in their areas as excess and to leaseit, receiving payment for it, including water that is actually diverted to the Wasatch front from the Basin A 01111(1 Idea!
