Did A Giand Junction, Cola newspaper says Dinosaur National Monument Superintendent Dennis Huffman retired one day before the results of an investigation by the Modal County Sheriffs Department into the desbuction of boxes owned by ranchers in the monument were made public. According to a stay in the Daily Sentinel, Huffman reportedly ordered the destruction last spring of the property owned by the Mantel family. District Attorney Paul McLimans has declined to pursue criminal charges against Huffman, saying that Mantles would have to seek relief in civil court In a letter to the Mantle family McLiman wrote that if Mr. water-diversio- n Huffman's judgement was erroneous (as it certainly appears it may have been), then the civd court can impose an adequate remedy for the damage done." The boxes were key to the Mantel familys plans to develop a commercial and recreation operation in the isolated south side of the k canyon country, offal County approved commercial development there in 1995. The Mantles said destruction of the boxes delayed their work by two years. "At some point the federal employees have to be held accountable," Lonnie Mantle said of McLiman's decision not to file criminal mischief charges against Huffman. "If Mr. Huffman is allowed to destroy, and delay development of both commercial use as well as agricultural use, you are allowing every federal official or employee the right to trespass, destruction, and a guarantee of immunity to criminal prosecution." Huffman, 57, retired after a 'decade as superintendent of Dinosaur National Monument He said he had been considering retiring for about a year.

Ivie, 27, was arrested by Roosevelt Police on March 23, 1996 just after midnight at Circle K and charged with operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated. A breathalizer test administered to Ivie showed he had a blood alcohol content of .092. The legal limit in Utah is .08.
