Rarely do people think of these symbols of good will as dangerous. As birthdays, holidays, and other special occasions occur throughout the year, Utah Power reminds people that metallic balloons can be hazardous and to use caution when handling them. The danger lies in escaped balloons and their strings that end up touching a power line, transformer or substation. Upon making contact or becoming entangled with lines, even the slightest heliu- m-filled amount of metal- - including the amountin metallic balloons- - can conduct electricity. That contact can damage lines, causingpower outages to nearby homes or businesses, or causingpower fluctuations that can damageordestroy home appliances. Metallic balloons that come in contact with power lines can also cause serious personal injury to the person holding it, people who attempt to rescue the balloon or onlookers. Utah Power hopes to prevent electrical accidents by making people aware of the potential danger with balloons and urging caution at all times. Utah Power wants to tell its customers that ifthe balloons are going to b given, there are things both the giver and receiver can do to help minimize the potential dangers of metallic balloons: Keep the balloons indoors, where they cant mingle with overhead power lines or drift into contact with transformers or substations. Make the sure string for each balloon is securely attached and short enough to control its direction. Attach a weight to the balloon's string so it cannot float away. reSupervise children who have ceived balloons as a gift. Never intentionality release balloons. Deflate balloon after the holiday and keep as a memento or dispose of properly. Birds and squirrels have been known tocany balloon remnant onto lines. If you notice a metallic balloon near a power line, do not try to retrieve it. Report it to Utah Power by anytime. calling Hy- Shaune Shiner, a local welder, welded together a base anchor to be cemented into the ground to support the pole. He also hauled his back hoe to the cemetery and duga hole for the base. Metal for the base anchor was donated by Coastol Field Services. Shane Gardner, owner of Concrete, donated equipment and concrete for the base. One of his employees, Jeff Carter, delivered the concrete and helped Jacob Manning and Moroni build the base. Bruce Hunt scheduled Moon Lake Electric Inc. equipment and a crew, Robert Uresk, Mike Davenport, and Russ Larsen to transport the heavy thirty foot metal pole to the cemetery and stand it on the base. Labrum worked with the ' Lynn local American Legion post to secure the donation of an American flag for the cemetery.
