Most states, including Utah, have formed task fbrces to pass legislation will that fundamentally try to make the largest market in the world more competitive. Several states California, Rhode bland, Texas, Montana and Pennsylvania - have already made moves to open their -- markets. "Opening access to the power industry is the largest deregulation and restructuring ever undertaken in the United States," says Doug Hunter the general manager for UAMPS, a . member owned nonprofit agency that wholesales . to electricity municipalities throughout the Intermountain West. "Most people don't realize how big the industry is - the American electricity market represents nearly $200 billion-a-yein revenues." ar For months, analysts have been reviewing who will be the winners and who will be the losers once the electrical industry has open access, According to Hunter, large users aremost likely up the winners and one or more of the following options: become independent aggregators (purchasing a block of power for citizens in their communities) or join with other . through an ' organization such as UAMPS. to until users the loser?, unless they purchase as a group; become, a . do something about it municipal utility; or contract with ' other entities to serve customers., i "Communities need to participate in the restructuring process fully to, Right now, actions can be taken ensure, electric power will bd to protect vital interests of both delivered to them in the manner electric suppliers and customers most responsive to their unique Hunter emphasizes.

Told through the eyes of photographers, it is about who we are in tire West, and how our lifestyles and culture have evolved from the raw, unchartered landscape. photographers, "Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Tetons, and the Colorado River are places we take for granted in the 1990s because we can drive our can to a tourist spot, pull out our pocket camera, and snap off dozen pictures," uys Verdoia. "But these photographers carried hundreds of pounds of equipment, worked with n very delicate glass plate process that could be fouled by wind, min, or heat, and they managed to secure the first images of these places. They preserved for each of us this sense of what the landscape wu like before it wu tamed through the westward expansion. Their photographs leave us a legacy of love of the landscape that is central to the Western experience."
