Show THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 26, 1974 PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW, PLEASANT GROVE, UTAH THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1974 Huntington Plant Sets Open House handling facilities. Environmental consideration weighed heavily in the design and construction of the UP&L plant. It incorporates pollution control equipment designed to meet all state and federal stan-dards, air and water standards and other aesthetic and envir-onmental considerations. A welcome mat will be out for visitors at Utah Power & Light Co.'s public open house at its new $137 million Hunt-ington steam-electri- c plant Fri-day and Saturday, Oct. 4 and 5 between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. The coal-burnin- highly au-tomated initial unit of the elec-tric generating station is loca-ted seven miles northwest of the community of Huntington. The plant's initial unit of 430,000 kilowatts can supply enough electricity for two large iudnstrial loads like Kennecott Copper or two cities the size of Ogden, Utah. It incorporates many automated devices inclu-ding automatic data gathering equipment that checks on more than 500 critical areas and. a computer that uses the data to make mathematical calcula-tions necessary for plant oper-ations. Visitors will be impressed with the y boiler, a view into its raging white-ho- t in-terior where temperatures reach 2,600 degrees; and a walk around the turbine hall where the electricity is generated and where the tip of the largest blade of the turbine travels faster than the speed of sound. Fuel source for the plant is a mine two miles distant from the plant where coal is taken from the mine via a covered conveyor to the plant's coal I r H U U; , ! j I " I J: ' !,'" ' 1 .

Planning Commissioners Workshop Set for Friday Calvin E. "Cal" Monson, can-didate for election to the Utah County Commission and mem-ber of the American Fork City Planning Commission, will chair a day-lon- g planning com-missioners workshop to be held as part of the annual conven-tion of the Utah League of Cit-ies and Towns, Sept. 26 to 28 at the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City. Theme of the workshop is how to deal with the rapid pop-ulation growth being exper-ienced in many parts of Utah and its impact on communities. Because Utah County is the fastest growing area in Utah the subject matter of the meet-ing is particularly important. The workshop will open on Friday, Sept. 27 at 10:30 a.m. and a panel discussion on the topic "Growth prospects for Utah's communities, what do they mean to a small town, the large city?" will be held. Mod-erating the panel will be Pat-ricia Swifth, member of the Salt Lake County planning commission. Participants will include Gor-don Harston, Lee Kapoloski, Dr. John Hunt, Dale Carpenter and Don Dunlap. Following a luncheon in the exhibit hall, Keith Richan, of American Fork, chairman of the Utah County Planning Com-mission will discuss the impact of growth on the quality of community life. Mr. Richan will tell how the Utah County Plan-ning Commission is attempting to protect the quality of life through the new county devel-opment plan. At 2 p.m., Mr. Monson will moderate a panel discussion on "Guiding Growth in Your Com-munity." During the 3:30 session, the Utah Land Use Act will be discussed in a joint meeting with mayors and town presi-dents. Karl O. MacFarlane, as-sistant mayor of Ogden, will be the discussion leader. A proposal has been made for the formatiqon of a state-wide association of planning commissioners in affiliation with the Utah League of Citeis and Towns and the Utah Asso-ciation of Counties.

Some people are satisfied to be average. But do you know what you are when you're average? You're the best of the worst and the worst of the best. Is that what you want to be? The ancient writers said some smart things if you ever take the time to read what they wrote. Present and Proposed Changes (cont.)
