Ready to ‘ditch’ road work?

GEOFF LIESIK, Uintah Basin Standard

L&L Motor Co. service technician Troy Collins, left, waits Tuesday night while construction crews attach cables to an SUV, after its driver drove into a trench in U.S. Highway 40 in Roosevelt. By Steve Puro Uintah Basin Standard It’s a question more and more drivers in the Roosevelt area are asking themselves each day: Which way should I pick to get through town? “You can’t drive anywhere down there without taking 20 (minutes) to get from one end to the other,” wrote Jessica Kennedy-Blunt on the Uintah Basin Standard’s Facebook page. “Even the side roads are under construction,” she added. “Hope they are able to finish by winter or it’s gonna

be one scary driving experience!” Last Tuesday afternoon the intersection of U.S. Highway 40 and Lagoon Street became a four-way stop. Later that night the driver of a sport-utility vehicle hauling a trailer loaded with ATVs crashed into the construction trench on US-40 near 200 South. No one was injured in the crash, but drivers are understandably frustrated. “Construction in Roosevelt is ridiculous,” wrote Kate Cesspooch, who drove her SUV into a construction trench near Davis Jubilee Aug.

20 after a storm blew road signs and barrels away. The work in Roosevelt is full of moving targets that are hard to define or even get clarified. Moving target No. 1 is completion dates. Secondary water line installation is right on schedule or slightly ahead. Roosevelt City is involved with weekly progress meetings with Condie Construction, the contractor for the project. “Secondary water is coming along very well,” said Assistant Roosevelt City Manager Roger Eschler. “They

are on schedule and hope to be pretty well done at the end of the month.” Work on the culinary line running the length of town on main street is a “couple of weeks behind,” according to Roosevelt City Manager Justin Johnson. “They are trying to finish by the 23rd of September,” Johnson said. “That would put completion ahead of the UDOT repaving project.” The Utah Department of Transportation’s project at 200 North and US40 — known to most area residents as L&L corner — has had to overcome

numerous obstacles and is possibly the farthest off schedule. Byron Colton, Roosevelt office manager for Horrocks Engineers, said the project could be as much as seven weeks behind schedule, though that is “unsubstantiated at this point,” he said. UDOT Region 3 Director Shane Marshall told the city earlier in the summer that the repaving of US-40 would be done ahead of cold weather, which would end construction if day time temperatures fall below 50 deSEE ROADS on page A-2

Sewer district eyed Vernal officer awarded Purple Heart for Hancock Cove By Ranae Bangerter and Geoff Liesik

By Geoff Liesik Uintah Basin Standard The TriCounty Health Department is supporting a proposal to build a sewer system in Hancock Cove. The proposed system is the topic of a public meeting slated for 8 p.m. Thursday at the Crossroads Community Center in Roosevelt. Hancock Cove is an area the health department has always been concerned about, said Darrin Brown, the agency’s director of environmental health. “It’s not an ideal place to have a septic system,” Brown said, noting that the Cove has a high water table, which leads to more frequent problems with residential wastewater systems. Brown said the health department is in favor of the creation of the Hancock Cove Sewer District, which is being touted by Craig Ashby. Ashby, the former publisher of the Uintah Basin Standard, said the

purpose of Thursday night’s meeting is to gauge public support for a sewer district. He has already helped secured money from the state Permanent Community Impact Board and Duchesne County to conduct a feasibility study. Representatives from the state Division of Environmental Quality will be at Thursday’s meeting to hear from the public. DEQ’s board will decide whether to contribute additional money to the feasibility study at its Sept. 28 meeting, Ashby said. All of the funds are being managed by the Duchesne County Municipal Building Authority because a sewer district has not been formed, he said. “We need to answer two questions,” Ashby said, explaining the need for the study. “Does a potential health risk exist (with the current septic systems), and do people need (a sewer system)?” The district may only serve the SEE SEWER on page A-5

Vernal police officer Dustin Gray fully expected to be called to a report of someone prowling around a house on Oct. 31, 2009. After all it was Halloween night. What he didn’t expect was that he’d find himself under fire and wounded in both legs within seconds of responding to the call. “When it happened I just remember the flash of the gun in the dark, it’s the first thing I remember,” said Gray, who was decorated at Wednesday night’s Vernal City Council meeting with a Purple Heart awarded by the National Peace Officer’s Hall of Fame. “I don’t even know what was going on in my head,” he said. “I think my training kicked in — ‘I need to look for cover and pull my gun,’ — and I was like, ‘This can’t be happening.’” As Gray approached the home at 150 Dale Ave. that night he recognized the man crouching in the shadows from previous encounters. The officer tried to move around a vehicle in the driveway of the home, but Jesus E. Martinez circled the vehicle, then

One bullet passed through the 30year-old’s left thigh. Another grazed his right leg. He managed to get behind another vehicle.

“When I was able to get cover he disappeared so I didn’t return fire, which is good I guess,” Gray said. “At SEE OFFICER on page A-5

Trucker loses court case, denied ‘hardship’ waiver USU’s business program By Steve Puro Uintah Basin Standard Ren Lamb had his day in court and lost — for now. Lamb, who parks his tractor-trailer truck behind his home in a residential area on Lagoon Street, was cited in November 2010 for violating Roosevelt City’s truck route ordinance. His fought the ticket, but lost the case last month and was ordered to pay a $100 fine. Last Tuesday, Lamb asked the Roosevelt City Council to grant him consideration as a “hardship case” and allow him to continue trucking from his home until December. “I wanted to see if you would let me continue out this season,” he told the council. “But, if you want me to move, I also want the people who park for secondary water down on the property where I’m parking my truck — and have for quite a while — I want them off the property tomorrow, too, if I

have to move.” The council decided to take the request under advisement and return a decision within 48 hours. Roosevelt Mayor Vaun Ryan informed the Uintah Basin Standard of the council’s decision. “They have only a home office license, they do not have a trucking business license,” Ryan said, referring to Lamb and his wife, Connie. “I notified them that they would have to comply with the ordinance.” The Lambs were “very good” about the news of the council’s decision, according to Ryan. “I asked them to move it as quickly as possible and we have given them to the end of the month to be in compliance,” he said.

booming at Basin campus By Lacey McMurry Uintah Basin Standard It was the perfect combination of factors that brought Dave Woolstenhulme to the Uintah Basin in 1991. As a young college student without a completed degree, Woolstenhulme landed a teaching and coaching job in Duchesne. That job allowed him to teach during the day and finish his degree at night. His wife, Karen, had also been hired to teach at Utah State University’s regional campus in the Uintah Basin. “Without the campus here, we never would have come to this area,” he said. Woolstenhulme would later go on to pursue a master’s degree in human resources from the regional campus and a doctorate from the University of Wyoming. Today, he is the associate

director of USU Uintah Basin as well as a faculty member in the Huntsman School of Business. “That master’s program definitely had an impact on my life,” Woolstenhulme said. Over the years, Woolstenhulme has seen the program that helped shape his career have its ups and downs. In fact, shortly after he graduated, business class offerings had to be scaled back due to funding changes. Over the next decade, USU Uintah Basin would go without any graduate programs in business. The number of undergraduate business and entrepreneurship programs available was also slashed. Today, that picture has changed once again, and the entrepreneurship and business programs at the regional SEE BUSINESS on page A-2

campus are more plentiful than ever before. Woolstenhulme said the number of students enrolled in entrepreneurship undergraduate courses at regional campuses across the state has doubled in just two years — from 80 enrolled students in the spring of 2009 to 182 enrolled students in the spring of 2011. “What’s even more interesting than that number is the regional campuses had 163 students enrolled in entrepreneurship classes in the 20102011 academic year, compared with 183 students enrolled

on the campus in Logan,” he said. “The fact we had almost as many enrolled as they do in Logan just shows the kind of impact the regional campuses are having.” In addition to skyrocketing growth in entrepreneurship classes, the first cohort in the newly-reestablished master’s of human resources program graduated this year. Woolstenhulme said the recent changes in the vitality of the business and entrepreneurship classes are a direct result of money allocated by the state Legislature beginning in 2007. Funding was allocated to regional campuses throughout the state through the adoption of HB 185, which earmarked money to hire new faculty in rural areas. The bill was championed by Uintah Basin legislators like then-Rep. Gordon Snow, R-Roosevelt, and Sen. Kevin Van Tassell, R-Vernal. “I was a believer that we needed to provide more opportunities in rural Utah,” said Snow, who sponsored the bill in the House. “In particular, I believed in the idea that campuses

in rural Utah needed good, strong business programs.” Woolstenhulme calls HB 185 “one of the best things that has happened to the regional campuses and distance education system,” and said there is no question that now flourishing business programs will have a positive impact on the economic health of local communities. “These are students who, for whatever reason, wouldn’t have the opportunity to pursue a business degree otherwise,” he said. “Now they have the education they need to directly impact the economic development of the communities they reside in. That’s huge.” Entrepreneurial spirit is one of the pillars of the Huntsman School of Business, Woolstenhulme said. The school’s students are taught to constantly look for new ways to solve problems, he said. “That doesn’t just apply to someone starting their own small business,” he said. “Big corporations also want these people ... demand is always there for self-starters who can find solutions and produce results.”

is the question of how much downtown businesses have suffered this summer. “I am sorry to all those businesses I am avoiding, but I just don’t (want) to mess with the hassle,” Jennifer Rook wrote on the Standard’s Facebook page. “I only go through the obstacle course if I absolutely have to.” The obstacle course consists of two lanes of traffic in each direction, driving across metal plates or through ever-worsening potholes, turning onto streets that have suddenly become dead ends and a serious scarcity of parking. “I have really missed the tourism side of the business this summer,” said Jon Venezia, owner of Roots coffee shop. “Thank God for the local customers.” Venezia believes his sales could be off as much as 50 percent. Chad Mortensen, owner of Marion’s Variety, added that it would be “nice if someone would let us know they are going to turn off the water.” “It would (also) be nice if they would tell us when they are going to close off the street,” he added.

9/11 Destruction Allowed Us to Spiritually Rebuild Submitted by President Thomas S. Monson The calamity of Sept. 11, 2001, has cast a long shadow. Ten years later, many of us are still haunted by its terrible tragedy of lost lives and broken hearts. It is an episode of anguish that has become a defining moment in the history of the American nation and the world. There was, as many have noted, a remarkable surge of faith following the tragedy. People across the United States rediscovered the need for God and turned to Him for solace and understanding. Comfortable times were shattered. We felt the great unsteadiness of life and reached for the great steadiness of our Father in Heaven. And, as ever, we found it. Americans of all faiths came together in a remarkable way. Sadly, it seems that much of that renewal of faith has waned in the years that have followed. Healing has come with time, but so has indifference. We forget how vulnerable and sorrowful we felt. Our sorrow moved us to remember the deep purposes of our lives. The darkness of our despair brought us a moment of enlightenment. But we are forgetful. When the depth of grief has passed, its lessons often pass from our minds and hearts as well. Our Father’s commitment to us, His children, is unwavering. Indeed He softens the winters of our lives, but He also brightens our summers. Whether it is the best of times or the worst, He is with us. He has promised us that this will never change. But we are less faithful than He is. By nature we are vain, frail, and foolish. We sometimes neglect God. Sometimes we fail to keep the commandments that He gives us to make us happy. Sometimes we fail to commune with Him in

prayer. Sometimes we forget to succor the poor and the downtrodden who are also His children. And our forgetfulness is very much to our detriment. If there is a spiritual lesson to be learned from our experience of that fateful day, it may be that we owe to God the same faithfulness that He gives to us. We should strive for steadiness, and for a commitment to God that does not ebb and flow with the years or the crises of our lives. It should not require tragedy for us to remember Him, and we should not be compelled to humility before giving Him our faith and trust. We too should be with Him in every season. The way to be with God in every season is to strive to be near Him every week and each day. We truly “need Him every hour,” not just in hours of devastation. We must speak to Him, listen to Him, and serve Him. If we wish to serve Him, we should serve our fellow men. We will mourn the lives we lose, but we should also fix the lives that can be mended and heal the hearts that may yet be healed. It is constancy that God would have from us. Tragedies are not merely opportunities to give Him a fleeting thought, or for momentary insight to His plan for our happiness. Destruction allows us to rebuild our lives in the way He teaches us, and to become something different than we were. We can make Him the center of our thoughts and His Son, Jesus Christ, the pattern for our behavior. We may not only find faith in God in our sorrow. We may also become faithful to Him in times of calm. Thomas S. Monson is president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. First published in the Washington Post.

By Cheryl Mecham I ordered custom blinds for the man cave I told my husband.. “Why?” he asked. “To match the rest of the house,” I simply answered. He sighed and went back to watching TV and I turned the sizzling hamburgers in the pan. “That’s going to be more money,” he said, and I realize he’s muted the volume control. We rarely lock horns, but I turned off the flame under the burgers and entered the boxing ring. As I sat down on the couch, his attention drifted back to the now silent TV and I began to watch with him. It’s America’s Funniest Home Videos — a program that doesn’t need sound effects or commentary to make it funny (sorry Tom Bergeron). I laugh. He laughs. The tension I felt drains out of my body into the sofa cushions. After watching a few minutes I figured my man had said all he wanted to say, but being a woman I couldn’t leave my side of the argument unfinished, I stood and said, “they’ll give our house a finished look.” I returned to the half-cooked

said the “T” word. Grandma was not deterred as she sorted through the casual footwear pulling out what she thought would please those persons she loves so dearly. “I used to buy your mother thongs every summer,” grandma reminisced. “After putting them on, it took her a while to learn how to walk gracefully. “She didn’t look normal right at first,” grandma whispered loudly to the one grandchild that remained. (This girl was hoping grandma would really spring for a pair of flip flops.) “Of course,” grandma continues shaking her head, “Your uncle Joe was the worst. He never knew exactly how to put his thongs on. Always had them on wrong. Preferred wearing your mom’s because hers were bigger.” “I loved my thongs,” grandma continued. “Used to have ‘em in every color. Wore them everywhere I went. But I do like these flowered ones. Things have changed. We could only buy our thongs in solid colors. I guess you kids might like these striped ones.” “Stripes are good, grandma,” the granddaughter agreed. “Just get the striped ones for me.” “But you have to try them on,” grandma insisted. “There is nothing more uncomfortable than tight thongs. You can get blisters. I’ve seen that happen. And those kind of blisters are the hardest to put a band aid on. It just won’t stay stuck.”

Apparently grandfather got blisters from thongs that were too tight. “That’s why he refuses to put on the pair I got him a few years ago,” grandma said. “Won’t even wear his on the boat. I should buy him some of these big blue ones. He can at least roam around the house in them. Or they should be comfortable while he’s weeding or washing the car. I like to wear thongs for weeding.” “Grandma,” the granddaughter said. “They don’t call these thongs anymore. These are called flip-flops. Thongs are different.” Eventually the granddaughter explained exactly what a thong is. Grandma had actually heard of those tiny pieces of underwear. Grandma grinned while saying, “I don’t suppose we should buy your grandfather a thong. Imagine how ridiculous he would look.” “No thanks,” the granddaughter said turning down an invitation to use her imagination. She did, however, let her grandmother buy two pairs of stripped flip-flops.

burgers “It’s going to be more money,” he repeated. “I know,” I sighed and then yanked open the fridge to pull out ketchup and mustard and a jar of dill pickles. With my sharpest knife I sliced pickles then fat garden-fresh tomatoes and finally diced up a sweet onion. I handed him his plate with a burger stacked just the way he likes it. “Thank you honey,” he said. We ate American food, just like American’s — right in front of the TV. After a few bites I said, “I can cancel the blinds.” “No,” he said. “If we’ve got the money, get them.” That’s how it is for us. We never actually spar. We might dance a bit in the ring, heaped up by our opposing views. Then we drop our arms and stop

Chevron to pay $4.5M for 2 oil spills in Utah By Josh Loftin Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Chevron has agreed to a $4.5 million settlement with Salt Lake City and state environmental officials for two oil spills that polluted a creek and city pond, city officials announced last Tuesday. Mayor Ralph Becker said the money will be used to repair the waterways and riparian corridors damaged by the two spills. According to the settlement, the company will pay $3 million for mitigation projects, $1 million to help affected residents and businesses, and a $500,000 civil penalty to the state. It does not end Chevron’s responsibility for the cleanup, which is overseen by federal regulators. It also doesn’t limit private claims that have been filed by people living along Red Butte Creek. “We expect Chevron to continue ... to be responsible for residual oil that needs to be cleaned up, responding to the public as concerns arise and virtually anything else that comes up because of this oil spill,” Becker said. The Utah Rivers Council, which has been working with residents along the creek, questioned whether the settlement went far enough. Executive Director Zach Frankel said the group had pushed for $15 million to track the long-term health effects of the spills.

Now nothing matters to us, but us. I never expected my husband to whistle in appreciation when those blinds were hung up over his work bench. He just went about his business like men do hammering, grinding and fixing stuff. I never saw him lower or raise them. They hang on the garage windows just to make me happy. I tell my young friends that marriage just gets sweeter when they get older. I wonder if they believe me? It’s been true for us. When I wonder how we got here I think ... it’s pretty much a miracle.

Without the study, people who develop illnesses attributable to the spills — especially cancer — will be “in it alone, having to fight with their insurance company and Chevron’s attorneys,” Frankel said. Chevron spokesman Mickey Driver said the company was happy with the settlement. “We’re glad to reach this milestone and be able to move on with our clean-up efforts,” Driver said. According to the settlement agreement, Chevron has spent $37 million on its own remediation efforts following the two spills. In addition, it has paid almost $6 million for restoration work done by the city, state agencies or private parties. A pipeline failure in June 2010 in the mountains above Salt Lake City sent 33,000 gallons of oil downstream and killed all the fish at Liberty Lake, state regulators said, as well as large trees and insects. About 300 birds were coated in oil and had to be cleaned at Hogle Zoo. Fewer than 10 died. The city decided to stop the oil spill at Liberty Lake and use it as a collection point. The lake was drained, dredged of contaminated sediment, then lined with a protective concrete barrier and rock wall before it was reopened 11 months later. Chevron was fined $423,000 after federal regulators determined the oil company needed better leak detection safeguards. About 500 barrels spilled nearby in December that officials blamed on a frozen valve. That oil did not make it to the creek.

Duchesne County hosts fishing and family fun at Starvation By Steve Puro Uintah Basin Standard Starvation Reservoir may be the home the 20-year-old Walleye Classic, but the fishing event is just an excuse for a party. “We noticed that every year the anglers brought their families and children, but there wasn’t anything for them to do,” said Executive Director for the Duchesne County Area Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism and Convention Bureau Irene Hansen. “We realized there was a real opportunity to build Starvation, bring families in, and celebrate what we have here.” The Fifth Annual Family Fun Day at Starvation Reservoir hosted games, giveaways, and educational booths including two new interests: photography and rock climbing. The fun day began after the Walleye Classic had been going for about 12 years Hansen said. It has grown from about 20 people to nearly 300 this year. A group of 25 volunteers organize the fun day from as far away as Colorado and Idaho. The chamber used to be in charge of the fishing tournament but now The Bass Federation and Rocky Mountain Anglers organize it, while the chamber focuses on the fun day. Paul Reutlinger, with the Utah Bass Federation was on location to oversee the event. “This is a great tournament,” Reutlinger said. “I wouldn’t miss it. It’s the only tournament around where the community gets involved with the tournament.” He said in most cases the anglers arrive, check in, fish,

check back in, and there is no community ownership. “Duchesne County and the folks around here are just great,” Reutlinger said. “They pay back into the event. It’s a great, great program.” The economic impact of the

tournament and fun day is not lost on Hansen. “We rented lots of rooms in Duchesne, every campsite in the park was full,” Hansen said. “This is just a great way to promote what we have in Duchesne County.”

least everyone is alive.” After shooting Gray, Martinez walked over to the home and fired at least eight shots through a window into the basement living room. Police say he jumped through the window and attacked the homeowner, who was dating and living with Martinez’s exwife. Martinez, whose parents are longtime supporters of local law enforcement, pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted aggravated murder, and one count each of aggravated burglary and discharge of a firearm into a home. He was sentenced to prison. Gray was nominated for the Purple Heart in July by a fellow Vernal police officer. Vernal Mayor Gary Showalter lauded Gray for his service and praised the police department. “I can clearly say that I think we have the best law enforcement division — at least within the Uintah Basin — here in Vernal City,” Showalter said following the Purple Heart presentation. “Their professionalism and their dedication and duty are just top notch,” he added. Vernal Police Chief Dylan Rooks, who pinned the commendation on Gray, also commented on the officer’s professionalism, noting that Gray never held his assailant’s actions against the man’s family. For his part, Gray said he was grateful for the award. “It’s one of those ones you hope you never get, but when something like that does happen, it’s nice to be recognized by my fellow officers,” he said.

Cove or may also take in the Vonsville subdivision and homes along Pole Line Road from U.S. Highway 40 to State Street. “The line hasn’t been drawn,” Ashby said. “We don’t know who we’re going to serve yet.” If it’s created, the district would be a subdivision of the county. The maximum monthly fee it could charge would be determined by formula estab-

lished by the state that is based on the median gross adjusted income. At present, that fee could be no more than $51.40 per month, Ashby said. As for whether the district would charge a connection fee, how much that fee would be and whether the district would have the power to levy taxes, Ashby said those questions would “all be determined by a vote of the people” in the area the district serves. Anyone with questions about the proposal should attend Thursday’s meeting in Roosevelt, Ashby said.

Roosevelt man arrested after rolling stolen SUV A Roosevelt man could face felony charges after Uintah County sheriff’s deputies say he stole a sportutility vehicle while he was drunk and then Dee Green crashed it. Deputies and other emergency responders were called about 10:30 p.m. Sept. 1 to the area just south of Todd Dugway in Ballard on a report of a crash, according to Uintah County Sheriff’s Cpl. Brian Fletcher. They found Dee Green pinned

inside a GMC Jimmy that had rolled off the road that climbs the dugway, Fletcher said. Crews extricated Green, 51, from the SUV and took him to Uintah Basin Medical Center for treatment. Investigators later determined that Green was extremely intoxicated when he finished fishing at a nearby reservoir and began to walk home, Fletcher said. Green found the GMC at a home a short distance from his fishing spot and stole the vehicle, the corporal said. Green was driving on the Todd Dugway road when, for

reasons still unknown to authorities, he tried to turn the SUV around. “When Green began backing the vehicle, he backed too far, causing the vehicle to go off the edge of the road,” Fletcher said. The SUV rolled backward down the 100-foot embankment, trapping Green inside. After Green was released from the hospital he was arrested and booked into the Uintah County Jail for investigation of DUI and vehicle theft. — Geoff Liesik, Uintah Basin Standard

Vernal Mayor Gary Showalter will appoint McRae’s successor after a commission of five non-elected individuals selects the top candidates for the position. The nomination commission is comprised of two people picked by the Vernal City Council; one individual picked by the mayors of Ballard, Naples and Vernal; one individual picked by the Uintah County Bar Association; and one person picked by the Uintah County Commission.

Conflicts arise as panel maps new Utah districts By Josh Loftin Associated Press

RANAE BANGERTER, VERNAL EXPRESS

Naples City firefighters pose for a photo with an engine the city purchased from New York City after the Sept. 11, 2011, terror attacks. The engine carries a memorial to a pair of New York firefighters who were killed in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.

Naples fire truck honors 9/11 fallen By Ranae Bangerter Vernal Express Sunday marked a decade since terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Virginia and Pennsylvania. A memorial to that day — and the men, women and children who died — can be found in Naples. It’s a fire engine that was used by a fire department to help cleanup after the Sept. 11 attacks and bears the names of two fallen New York firefighters. One was an engineer, Lt. Peter Brennan, who was in New York City during the attacks and was killed there. The other was Ray Meisenheimer, a former Hauppauge Fire Department captain, who had recently left the department to serve at a nearby station and was also killed on 9/11. Naples firefighter Levi Pummell traveled to New York to pick up the gently-used truck in the winter of 2002. While there he visited with the firefighters serving there. The group welcomed him and other visiting firefighters warmly, Pummell said. “There’s just such a tight brotherhood,� he said. “Even though we were from Utah they brought us in just like we were one of them. “It was really, really a neat feeling,� Pummell added. “I don’t even know how do describe it, it was just remarkable.� The truck was purchased from the Hauppauge Fire Department because of the price, and because it had low miles, according to Naples Fire Chief Brett Reynolds. Only later did Reynolds find out about its significance. “This truck is kind of a rolling memorial to us,� he said, pointing to the stickers that were added to the truck bearing the names of the fallen New York firefighters. The truck was also used specifically for the graveside services last month for Marine Sgt. Daniel Gurr of Vernal who was killed in action on Aug. 5 in Afghanistan, “because this truck was there when the whole

FBI, BIA investigate shooting incident Federal investigators are looking into an incident where as many as 10 shots were fired at a group of people standing outside a home in Whiterocks. The shooting occurred about 9 p.m. Sept. 6 at a home near the Whiterocks Community Center, according to police sources. One of the people who was shot at may have been beaten earlier in the evening at another Whiterocks home, the sources said. FBI spokeswoman Debbie Dujanovic said Friday that no one was injured in the gunfire, however, there was damage done to the home. Acting Bureau of Indian Affairs Police Chief Aundreau Gray referred calls about the incident to his supervisors in seeking information about the case was not returned at press time.

mess started,� Reynolds said. Since the truck arrived in 2003, the Naples Fire Department has become more patriotic, the chief said. Each fire truck now bears a special logo featuring an eagle and an American flag. “9/11 kinda means something different to firefighters,� Reynolds said, while turning on a Personal Alert Safety System device and listening to the sound of its alarm. Every firefighter wears one of the devices when responding to a fire. The alarm begins to sound and increase in volume when a firefighter stops moving. After the Sept. 11, attacks people said they heard hundreds of alarms going off for days. Reynolds said when he heard that, it choked him up because he knew what it meant. “Every alarm that they heard was a fireman that was trapped under rubble and not moving,� he said. Reynolds took a trip to New York to see Ground Zero a few years back and said he admired the city’s respect. “You’re just going through

New York and New York is New York and then all the sudden there’s just this hole in the ground where people are still quiet, they’re still respectful,� he said.

As for the truck that bears the memorials to one of the darkest days in U.S. history, Reynolds said: “I hope we keep it forever just because of what it is.�

SALT LAKE CITY — State lawmakers tasked with drafting new election maps are finding that their principles for redistricting are conflicting with each other and causing practical problems. During a meeting Wednesday, the Redistricting Committee tentatively approved a map for the state school board that protected multiple incumbents and, in the process, trampled one of the committee’s primary goals. Committee members also considered a state Senate seat map that the sponsor said was drawn, in part, to prevent two current senators from being placed in the same district. Lawmakers adjourned for the day without voting on the proposal. In both cases, the lines were shifted from initial proposals to protect incumbents because of other, larger concerns, according to the sponsors. For the state school board map, Rep. Ken Sumsion, R-American Fork, said incumbents who were initially allocated to the same district needed to be separated to prevent massive turnover on the board. Otherwise, every seat on the board — members serve staggered four-year terms — would potentially be up for election in 2012. The state Senate map proposed by Sen. Ralph Okerlund, R-Monroe, specifically prevented Sen. Luz Robles, D-Salt Lake, and Sen. Dan Liljenquist,

R-Bountiful, from running against each other. But Okerlund said the motivation was because the senators represent significantly different communities, something reinforced by public comments. Robles’ district is centered on Salt Lake City’s west side, which has a relatively large Hispanic population. Liljenquist primarily represents northern suburbs in Davis County that have a higher median income and less diversity. Democrats were expected to lose at least one incumbent in whatever map the committee approves because the population has grown substantially more in Republican strongholds, such as Utah County. The Senate proposal frustrated people who testified before the committee, which they said simply reinforced the fear that politics would drive redistricting. “If this map passed, the skeptics win because it’s clear you’re protecting incumbents. You’ve perpetuated the problem,’’ said Merrill Nelson, a former legislator from Tooele County. John Fellows, the Legislature’s general counsel, said the U.S. Supreme Court has established seven principles for redistricting, including preserving “communities of interest� and making districts compact. Each district is also required to have approximately the same population. Often, those principles and population requirements cause a “tension� and can force committee members to decide their priorities, Fellows said.

A Salt Lake City company is testing phosphate deposits on land west of the Ashley Gorge, near the face of Dry Fork. Two Dry Fork residents, who asked not to be identified, contacted the Vernal Express after stumbling across drilling operations north of Old Power Line Road. They said the only way they knew about the project was because they were riding four-wheelers around their property and came upon a mining meeting. “Judging from the number of citizens who have called the commission office, there already appears to be significant opposition to the project,” said Uintah County Commissioner Mark Raymond when asked about the drilling. The test drilling is being conducted by Agrium, an international fertilizer company that is a subcontractor to the lease-holder, Ashley Creek Properties LLC of Salt Lake City. “Ashley Creek is developing their leases by exploring 16 drill holes on state and private property,” said Mike Palmer, Agrium senior director of energy and raw materials. The phosphate deposits are located on state School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration and private land at the far north end of 2500 West in Vernal. “At present, the drilling is intended to evaluate the phosphate quality,” Palmer said. “What happens next will be determined by the results of the testing.” Palmer declined to speculate on the prospect of commercial mining, saying the company plans to have test results completed by the end of the year. “Depending on what turns out, we will work with communities and stakeholders, if we get that far,” he said, adding public participation is part of the process. Uintah County officials say the testing is merely part of the company’s due diligence process, not an application of large-scale mining. Ashley Creek Properties received a small mine permit from the state Division of Oil, Gas and Mining after filing for exploration in August. Its project proposes to disturb roughly 6 acres of land using mostly existing roads for access. The drilling will include an area near Ashley Springs, which is a primary source of municipal water diverted throughout the valley. More than 1,600 acre-feet of culinary water is delivered annually to Vernal, Naples, and Maeser from facilities below Ashley

Springs, according to the Central Utah Water Conservancy District. The water source and delivery system is not expected to be impacted by the test drilling. This isn’t the first time phosphate deposits have been evaluated in the area. “About 30 years ago core drilling on the west side of Ashley Gorge raised substantial public opposition and ultimately, the project was blocked,” Raymond said.

And in the late 1990s, Agrium tested Ashley Creek’s phosphate deposits for commercial development but found transporting the ore too pricey to be feasible. Simplot Phosphates, located on the other side of Ashley Gorge, operates a major phosphate mining facility. To resolve its transportation issues, the company constructed a 100mile-long slurry pipeline to the its fertilizer production plant at Rock Springs, Wyo.

Marianne Evans recently returned from the Guatemala Quetzaltenango Mission. She will be reporting on Sept. 18 in Myton 2nd Ward at 9 a.m. All who desire to attend this meeting are welcome.

RANAE BANGERTER, VERNAL EXPRESS

A Marine staff sergeant presents Uintah High School Principal Julie Wilde with the American flag that flew at half staff over the school following the death of Marine Sgt. Daniel Gurr. A Vernal native, Gurr, joined the Marine Corps prior to his senior year at Uintah High. He was killed Aug. 5 in Afghanistan.

Uintah High School retires flag, jersey in fallen Marine’s honor By Ranae Bangerter Vernal Express The wind was the only thing you could hear Friday afternoon outside Uintah High School as students held their hands over their hearts while an American flag was lowered from the flagpole and was retired in remembrance of the death of a former student, Marine Sgt. Daniel Gurr. Uintah High retired the flag, which flew outside the school soon after administrators found out about Gurr’s death. The 21-year-old was killed in action Aug. 5 in Afghanistan. A 2008 graduate of Uintah, he served as a student body officer and was active in athletics. After the flag was folded with help of Marines and student body officers, the Hi-Lites sang a patriotic song as a new

American flag was raised. Prior to the flag retirement ceremony, Uintah held its annual Freedom Assembly in memory of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. During the assembly, students were told that Gurr’s soccer number, No. 20, would be retired and his jersey hung in the school hallway along with a framed photo of him. The decision to retire Gurr’s jersey and the American flag was made “in honor of his service to our school, community and country,” said Uintah High Principal Julie Wilde. “He was a friend to all and supported everyone with his happy disposition and caring demeanor,” Wilde told the student body. “If I ever saw him without a smile, it was because he was concerned about someone else. But mostly he was smiling.” Army Staff Sgt. Joseph Loeb, who is originally from New York and now lives in Ballard, spoke to students about a day in the life of a soldier and how it changed his outlook on freedom. He talked about the ugly

side of the war, about death and being on the front lines and being shot. Of all the things that happened during his service, Loeb said, the thing that affected him the most was when a 19-yearold friend died in Fallujah, Iraq, in 2004 as part of Operation Phantom Fury, which has been named the bloodiest urban battle of the Iraq war. Despite his regrets and trials, Loeb said there were good things going on oversea and he appreciates the people he met while serving. “Anybody (I served with) who wants to call me up and ask me for something I’d go in a heartbeat for them,” Loeb said, “because they had my back out there.” After the event, 2008 Uintah High Senior Class President Kolby Lance made a statement about Gurr on behalf of Gurr’s classmates. “We feel honored by him,” Lance said. “We are so grateful to have had him in our class. We will never for get his ultimate selfless sacrifice.”

Jennifer Dykman Squire, age 43, of Roosevelt, beloved wife, mother, daughter, and sister passed away Sept. 11, 2011, at her home. She fought colon cancer valiantly and with the same quiet determination that shaped her life. She was born Sept. 12, 1967, in Panorama City, Calif., to Diane and Victor Dykman.

Jennifer graduated from Hillcrest High School in 1986, served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Atlanta, Ga., and earned a degree in Special Education from Utah State University. Jennifer got a job teaching special education at LaPoint Elementary. She was a great teacher, who understood her student’s needs. While attending institute in Roosevelt, she

Whirling disease found in the Green The parasite that causes whirling disease has been found in four rainbow trout taken from the Green River below Flaming Gorge dam. The disease doesn’t harm people, but it can kill small trout, especially small rainbow trout. Fish pathologists and biologists with the Division of Wildlife Resources don’t expect the parasite to affect fish populations in the Green River in great degree. “We don’t expect trout in the upper Green River to be greatly affected,” said DWR chief of the aquatic section Roger Wilson. “The upper Green River should remain one of the best trout fishing waters in the country.” Most of the trout in the

eight-mile stretch below the dam are brown trout, and brown trout are very resistant to whirling disease. Rainbow trout are more at risk if they are small, but the rainbow trout that the DWR stocks into the upper Green River average eight inches long when they’re stocked, so the trout are too large for the parasite to affect them significantly. The DWR said the parasite has been found in streams and rivers that empty into Flaming Gorge for years. The parasite was found in kokanee salmon in 2010 when biologists collected them as they migrated from Flaming Gorge up Sheep Creek to spawn.

While whirling disease shouldn’t affect trout in the upper Green River much, the disease can affect smaller trout in other bodies of water. To avoid spreading the disease to other waters, DWR biologists encourage you to do the following: — Do not use wading boots that have a felt sole. Felt-soled wading boots can pick up whirling disease spores and move them from one body of water to another. It’s difficult to completely clean and disinfect felt-soled wading boots. — After fishing, clean all of the mud off of fishing equipment, including the boat, trailer, waders, boots, float tubes and fins. Thoroughly dry

the equipment in the sun before using it in other waters. — If traveling directly to another body of water, clean equipment with a solution that’s 10 percent chlorine bleach and 90 percent water. Or, better yet, use another set of equipment. — Don’t dispose of fish heads, skeletons or entrails in any body of water. Instead, place the fish parts in the garbage, bury them deeply or burn them completely. The above suggestions will also lessen the chance that people move New Zealand mud snails, quagga and zebra mussels or other aquatic invasive species from one body of water to another.

OPEC cuts oil demand forecast on growth concerns By Tarek El-Tablawy Associated Press CAIRO — OPEC sharply revised down its forecast for world oil demand for this year and expected consumption would remain weak in 2012, citing on Monday waning economic growth in key industrialized nations and a weak U.S. driving season. The 12-nation group that supplies about a third of the world’s crude oil slashed its global oil demand forecast by 150,000 barrels per day for 2011 and by 40,000 barrels per day for 2012, saying “turbulence in world economic recovery has resulted in considerable uncertainty for demand growth next year.” It also lowered its estimate for crude produced by OPEC nations by about 100,000 barrels per day in 2011. “Uncertainties in the oil market are increasing at a time when the recovery of the global economy is losing momentum and is becoming less evident,” OPEC said in its September monthly oil market report. “Over recent months, a deceleration of economic growth was observed in almost every major

economy.” Oil prices have swung sharply over the past few weeks, affected by volatility in the equities markets. Investors and economists are increasingly worried that the global economy is headed back into a recession amid staggering debt woes in Europe and a decision by credit ratings firm Standard & Poor’s to cut the U.S. debt rating from its top tier level. The concerns about an economic slowdown have been coupled with uncertainty over supply, as output from OPEC member Libya largely stopped because of its civil war, which has now dragged on for over five months. Worries about Libyan crude supplies helped propel the Brent futures contract well above $120 per barrels in the summer earlier, keeping it at a more than $20 premium to its U.S.-based futures contract, West Texas Intermediate. To cool prices, countries belonging to the Paris-based International Energy Agency released 60 million barrels of crude into the market to offset tight supplies over the summer. But the IEA’s new chief said last week that she does not foresee the need for an additional release of crude from strategic reserves. On Monday, WTI was trading down to near $85 per barrel on electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange while Brent on the ICE Futures exchange was down over $2 per barrel at a little over $110 per barrel. Libya’s expected return to the oil market contributed to OPEC’s lowered forecast. The North African nation that sits

atop Africa’s largest proven crude reserves began production at one of its fields in the east, the acting prime minister said on Sunday without providing further details. Before the civil war, Libya produced about 1.6 million barrels per day, a level analysts say it could take about a year to return to. OPEC has left its members’ output quotas unchanged for over two years, declining to raise production targets during its last meeting in Vienna in June. But with concerns building about a new global recession, key OPEC members Saudi Arabia and Kuwait unilaterally boosted their exports as a way to cool overheated prices. The producer group is slated to meet again in December and member states have given conflicting messages about whether they could move to revise their output figures at that gathering. In its latest report, OPEC said that the U.S. summer driving season fell short of its peak, dropping 2 percent year-to date, with the country’s economic troubles contributing “to this devastating performance.” “The setback in the OECD economy has been affecting world oil consumption since the onset of the financial crisis,” OPEC said, adding that the projected downside risks about which it cautioned are already materializing. While demand remains strong in major developing nations, like China and India, OPEC said that even there demand was waning slightly. Overall, it forecast world oil demand for 2011 at 87.99 million barrels per day, down from

its August estimate of 88.14 million barrels per day. Oil demand for 2012 was forecast at 89.26 million barrels per day. “Next year’s oil demand forecast is based on assumptions such as higher GDP, higher retail petroleum product prices, a strong Chinese economy and uncertainty in total world economy in 2012,” OPEC said. “While the forecast for 2012 implies two scenarios, the lower direction is more likely. A worse-thanexpected performance of the US economy might drag down world oil demand growth” by 200,000 barrels per day.”

Country acts to play huge Basin show By Ranae Bangerter Vernal Express The Uintah Basin is set to host one of the largest music events ever assembled in Utah. The first ever Country Explosion will feature 10 artists performing non-stop on a stage assembled in a pasture located just off of Vernal Avenue. “We’re literally taking a pasture and turning it into a concert and then turning it back to a pasture,” said KVEL station manager Steve Evans. The first big star on stage will be Charley Jenkins of Roosevelt. “I’m excited to be a part of the very first (Country Explosion), and be the very first guy on the stage,” Jenkins said. “Anytime you can bring quality entertainment back to the region, to me, is exciting.” He said he hasn’t performed in the Basin in a couple years, and after touring all over the country for the past four months, he said it will be fun to end his summer in Vernal. “I’m proud of where I’m from. I’m proud of being from a small town,” Jenkins said, adding that he grew up with a “real western experience” where he hauled hay and milked cows every morning. Every show he plays Jenkins

makes sure to mention he’s from Roosevelt and says that just about every show, whether it’s California, Washington or wherever someone comes up to him after the show and has a connection to the Basin. Knowing that the region supported him from the beginning when he competed in the annual Country Showdown summer singing competition, and when he released his first album, Jenkins said he gets more nervous to play for the home fans. “I want it to run as smooth as possible, just because I want to do it for them. It’s almost like playing at their wedding,” he said. Many visiting artists will be finishing their summer tours in Vernal. “We kind of get to cheat summer a little bit we get to extend summer,” Evans said. Other Friday night musicians include Andy Griggs and Billy Dean. The show runs from 5-10 p.m. Then beginning at 9 a.m. Saturday, music will run all day until 11 p.m. with Little Texas, Moe Bandy, Marty Sutton, Amber Hayes, Jamie O’Neal, Jagertown, and Opal Hill Drive performing. “We’ve tried to create a balance there for the old and

the young, a good wholesome entertainment opportunity,” Evans said. Bandy said he plans to keep the energy high even with several artists performing all day with him. “I have a real-hot band I’m really proud of, and we just try to really entertain the crowd and get the crowd riled up and get ‘em goin’,” he said. “I’m really looking forward to getting back to Utah, and I understand that this is a real-big show and I’m looking forward to it,” he said. Bandy has played Vernal several times before and enjoys the crowd because “the people out there really love country music.” “I love it out there, that part of the country is so beautiful and one of my favorite places,” he said. Food and drinks, including beer, will be available for pur-

chase at the venue at 1500 N. Vernal Ave. Attendees can feel free to bring their lawn chairs and blankets. Evans said if patrons stay for all of the bands both days the $49.95 weekend pass breaks down to about $5 a band. The event is a production of Home Town Entertainment with several local sponsors making the concert possible. Evans and Jenkins hope this first of its kind event will catch on and people will enjoy it. “It could turn into something where people not only enjoy music, but we’ll have a lot of people who will experience coming to the Basin, which is a big deal,” Jenkins said. Tickets are available at Davis Jubilee in Roosevelt and Vernal. There are still some general admission tickets available. For more information call 801-376-6250 or visit www. countryexplosion.com.

The muzzleloader and rifle deer hunts will close early this year in the Vernal unit on the south slope of the Uintas due to a low buck to doe ratio.

Vernal deer hunt will close early The state Division of Wildlife Resources is reminding hunters that this year’s muzzleloader and rifle deer hunts on the south slope of the Uinta Mountains will close early. “All general season deer hunts were shortened on this unit in an effort to reduce the buck harvest as it has fallen under the state guidelines by having less than 15 bucks per 100 does,” said Charlie Greenwood, DWR regional wildlife manager. Season dates for the muzzloader hunt on the Vernal unit run from Sept. 28 through Oct. 2. The rifle season starts Oct.

22 and ends Oct. 26th. “So far we’ve had good cooperation on the general season archery hunt, which ended on September 4,” said DWR Lt. Torrey Christophersen “If someone plans to hunt deer east of the Paradise Road, I strongly recommend they look at a map and read the notes in the Big Game Field Regulations to understand the unit and season dates,” Christophersen said. Guidebooks, maps and boundary descriptions can be found on the Division website, wildlife.utah.gov.

Elk, turkey hunts allowed at refuge Hunting for turkey and elk is now allowed at the Ouray National Wildlife Refuge. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced the revised regulations last week. Only 18 of 250 responses submitted during a 30-day public comment period opposed the amended regulations, allowing for the expansion of hunting. The refuge also allows fishing and the hunting of ducks and geese. Colorado’s Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge also expanded its offerings to include elk hunting. The National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement

Act of 1997 directs the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to permit hunting and fishing — along with four other types of wildlife-dependent recreation — where they are compatible with a refuge’s purpose and mission. Hunting, within specified limits, is offered on more than 300 national wildlife refuges. Fishing is offered on more than 270 national wildlife refuges. Other wildlife-dependent recreation on national wildlife refuges includes wildlife photography, environmental education, wildlife observation and interpretation.

It took 22 seconds for flames to spread to the carpet, 30 seconds for a wall to ignite, and 44 seconds for a cloud of black smoke to envelope the room from three feet off the floor up.

By Cheyenn Clayburn If there’s one week out of the year that schools are buzzing with school spirit, it’s homecoming week. Union’s homecoming week kicked off last Tuesday with Pajama and Crazy Hair Day. During lunch, the homecoming royalty was crowned. The winners were: freshman Dillon Gurr and Jentrie Glines; sophomores Kody Conover and Shalina Bertoch; juniors Steven Welsh and Tori Cole; and seniors Logan Wisener and Karlee Brotherson. After school, many students stayed to make banners and posters for the hall decorating contest. Wednesday was Mustache and Hat Day. There was the powder puff football game after school. The first game was forfeited by the freshman to the seniors because they didn’t have a team. The juniors beat the sophomores in the second game, and for the final game the seniors beat the juniors. Thursday was Backward, Inside Out and Crazy Makeup Day. “I loved the Crazy Makeup Day,” said Asia Evans. “I don’t think we’ve done that in the history of the school and it was really cool.” At lunch there was an ice

cream eating contest, which was won by the seniors. Friday was Black and Gold Day. During lunch there was a tug-o-war contest. The seniors beat the freshman, the juniors beat the sophomores, and then the seniors beat the juniors. A pep assembly was held during the last half hour of school. The cheerleaders, student council, drill team and boys drill team each performed a special dance routine to get the student body excited for the homecoming football game. After school was the annual homecoming parade, which was shorter this year due to road construction. The Cougars played hard during Friday night’s football game against the Carbon Dinos, but lost 17-13. During the halftime show, the drill team held a Kiss the Pig fundraiser. Freshman Kenadee McMullin, sophomore Shalina Bertoch, junior Laura Redmond and senior Mallorie Jenkins each had the most money in their jars and had to kiss a pig. “I think homecoming week is so important,” said Union Spirit Commissioner Jasymn Dulen. “It really helps bring spirit to the school and teaches all of the younger classmen the importance and fun of school spirit.”

Neola Elementary School fourth graders were visited recently by Maj. Gregory Page, who spoke to the students about the events that have occurred in the United States since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

By Kimberly Bruton Duchesne Eagle fans have really shown their spirit this past week. Activities at lunchtime started off FCCLA’s Rush Week. The musical “Great Expectations” was cast and will be performed in November with play practice already underway. On Thursday, Duchesne High hosted college orientation for Duchesne, Altamont and Tabiona. It was well attended and now the seniors can begin deciding their futures. The football team played Sept. 9 against Milford. The next game, which is an away game, will be played against a new school, Diamond Ranch, on Friday. Duchesne’s volleyball team took third at the Syracuse Tour-

you’re not afraid, then you’re not normal. But soldiers can face the dangers despite the fear. That is what you call courage!” Another student asked if serving in the military is fun. Page chuckled, then said that the Army can be fun, but it is mostly a lot of hard work. A third student asked Page if he has helped people since 9/11. Page said he has helped people throughout the world while serving in the Army — whether it be treating soldiers’ dental needs or the needs of children in countries such as Honduras or the Dominican Republic. Page said he’s provided care in gymnasiums, schools and even in tents. Page continues to serve in the Army Reserves. He has orders to leave for Kuwait on Dec. 23. He will be providing dental care for soldiers serving in nearby countries, such as Afghanistan. Mary Jane Page teaches fourth grade at Neola Elementary School. She is married to Maj. Gregory G.

2001, and have no memory of that dreadful day. Some have never heard about the events, but they have felt the fierce resolve of those who witnessed the terrible losses and consequent military involvement in the Middle East since. Maj. Gregory G. Page visited the class to talk about his personal commitment to do his part since 9/11. Page explained that someone asked him once why he was going back into the military at 50 years old and not leaving it to a younger, more physically fit generation. “I did serve as a young man for eight years during and after the Vietnam period,” Page replied. “However, the need is urgent that our current young generation be medically fit for service. This need is urgent. I can help in fulfilling this need. That is why I volunteered.” The children had many questions for Page, including questions about his uniform. One student, asked if it was scary in the Army. “Yes, when you’re in harm’s way it is scary,” Page said. “If

Ex-BYU athlete named superintendent PRICE, UTAH - After an uncertain year in 2010-2011, which saw the Carbon School District bring back retired Superintendent Patsy Bueno temporarily amid allegations against administrative hire George Park, local educators and students alike are ready for established leadership from the district’s top spot. Recently hired Superintendent Steve Carlsen has taken that position and reports a bright future for education in Carbon County. “I think leadership in education in a major challenge, one I enjoy undertaking,” said Carlsen from his newly decorated office this summer.

“Kids in high school have their whole life ahead of them, it’s an exciting time and to have the opportunity to influence them at that point in their journey is an amazing privilege.” For Carlsen, leadership began on the football field, where he finished his playing career as a full-back for Brigham Young University. “You know I was in on the winning play of the Miracle Bowl,” said Carlsen with a smile. “What everyone remembers is McMahon’s Hail-Mary but that touchdown only tied the game. I was the up-back on the extra-point and that’s the play that won the game.”

Following his days on the field, Carlsen went after what he called a “football coaching dream,” for 10 years while teaching in Idaho. After gaining his administrative degree during his 11th year of teach first school leadership job as the principal at Bear Lake High School. “I really enjoyed my time as a principal,” said Carlsen. “There is a tremendous amount of reward in that work. You get to work with the kids oneon-one, see them grow. That becomes much more difficult to do as a superintendent.” Sun Advocate

in two semesters that would take years to gain on the worksite,” Duncan said. With the simulator lab, students will be able to confront potentially dangerous events that routinely occur at rig sites. With input from instructors, they will develop and work through solutions for those events without the pressure of an authentic emergency. Classroom studies will include courses in the use of microcomputers, engine and compressor operations, wellhead operations, the use of separators and dehydrators, instrumentation and controls, artificial lifts, business communications, leadership in the petroleum industry and various other vital courses. Throughout the course, students will participate in cooperative on-site work experience. These “on-the-job” experiences can often lead students to permanent employment with a company once they complete the program. As an added benefit, UBATC and Utah State University have developed an agreement that may allow students who complete the 900-hour Petroleum Technology Certificate

The state Department of Workforce Services has two programs that can help employers who have workers interested in participating in petroleum technology training at Uintah Basin Applied Technology College. The Back to Work program will reimburse an employer up to $2,000 per eligible employee. To receive the reimbursement the company must hire someone who has been receiving unemployment benefits and has at least one dependent child. The On the Job program will reimburse an employer up to 50 percent of the wages paid to a new employee while training for a job. Both the employer and employee must apply with DWS prior to signing an employment contract. For more information, or to apply for either of these programs, call DWS at 435-722-6500 in Roosevelt or 435-781-4100 in Vernal.

A new certificate program at Uintah Basin Applied Technology College promises to provide unique opportunities for novices and veterans in the oil and gas industry. The Petroleum Technology Certificate program is expected to be a key to open doors for young adults just beginning a career in the energy service industry. It should also help established employees who know that their path to advancement lies in upgrading their skills and marketability through education. “The program was developed by UBATC through its partnerships with the Uintah Basin’s oil and gas industry leaders, and meets national accreditation standards,” said Jean Mold, the college’s vice president of economic development. The curriculum for the program combines traditional classroom instruction with simulated oil field experiences reproduced in a new outdoor training lab constructed on UBATC’s Vernal campus. Participating companies have donated hundreds of thousand of dollars in equipment for the lab and will use the program to train new hires. Several have also agreed to sponsor students who are working their way through the program. Jeff Duncan, production superintendent in Anadarko’s Greater Natural Buttes field, serves on a UBATC employer advisory committee that developed the curriculum for the new program. He understands the significance of what the 900-hour course will mean to the industry in the Basin. “You can now get experience

to receive 30 semester hours of credit toward USU’s new associate of applied science general technology degree. Students who follow this course toward an associate degree must complete the admissions process at Utah State and an additional 33 to 38 university credit hours, said USU Director of Student Services Bob Peterson. “Exposure to the university experience will build on the skills the student has already developed at UBATC and on the job site,” Peterson said. The Petroleum Technology program begins in late September; class size is limited to 20 students. Interested participants should begin the enrollment process by scheduling assessment testing at the UBATC career center in Roosevelt, 435-722-6946, or Vernal, 435-725-7103. UBATC registration and application forms can be found online at www.ubatc.edu or at UBATC registrar offices. Students seeking company sponsorship should also submit a resumé and application to Jean Mold. Therena Morrill works at Uintah Basin Applied Technology College.

Utah man cast on Survivor series

AURORA - For Aurora rancher Rick Nelson, the 14th time was the charm for getting his long coveted spot as a castaway on the hit television reality series Survivor. “It was like a big habit for me,” Nelson said. “Every time the season finale would come on and Jeff [Probst, host of the show,] would come on and say, ‘if you think you’ve got what it takes, apply now’ ... It was like a ritual every January to get out there and shoot another video. Heck, I might do it again this year, if they’ll let me.” Nelson was announced Aug. 22 as one of 18 castaways for this season - two are former castaways from a previous season playing for redemption. He won his spot on the show by becoming the top vote getter in a cbs.com casting call video poll contest. If the 51-year-old Nelson can outlast the other contestants, and avoid getting voted off the island, becoming the sole survivor, he will take home a $1 million prize. The new season of Survivor, featuring Nelson, is scheduled to premiere Wednesday, Sept. 14, with a special 90-minute episode that starts at 7 p.m., on the local CBS television network station.

gave Union a five-game win at Union. “We got the win. They beat us in five games at St. George and we got them back in Roosevelt. Execution of our plays and hustling on the court were the keys to the win,” said Union coach John Hullinger. “We did well serving the ball and especially Libby Heaton, who served the last seven points of the final game.” Hullinger gave his team a good talk heading to the fifth and final game. “I told them that Emery out hustled us in the third and fourth games. We had to hustle and we did that in the final game to take the win,” he said. Union was in charge of the first game as they jumped out to a 2-0 lead. Emery went up 6-5, but an ace by Taylor Nebeker had Union ahead 8-6. Soon Union was up 11-8. Emery came back for a 12-12 tie. However, Union blocked a shot and Bailee Pickup scored for a 15-12 edge. A Union player put the ball into a corner for an 18-13 lead and Union went up by 19-13 a few seconds later. Nielsen drilled a shot over the net for a 24-17 edge and the Miranda Murdock produced the first game winner at 25-17 for a 1-0 Union team edge. Union seemed on to its way for an easy triumph over Emery by grabbing a 4-0 lead in the second game that included a good shot by Murdock. She also tipped the ball over the net for a 5-3 lead. A couple of foul ups by the Cats enabled the Spartans to stage a comeback that allowed them to tie up the second game. However, an ace by Nielsen gave Union an 11-9 lead, but Emery heated up on more sloppy play by the Cougars to take a 16-13 lead (a shot was just in bounds by Emery). A net serve gave Emery a 19-14 edge. Emery was soon up by 23-17. However, the Cats refused to quit. Nielsen dove in the crowd to make a save and Murdock hit a shot off a Spartan to bring Union within two points of the Emery lead at 23-21. Roberts put a shot between some Spartans for a 23-23 tie and a low return by Emery

that was no good had Union ahead 24-23. Emery couldn’t get the final shot over the net and Union won 25-23 to go up 2-0. However, Union made the victory road a bumpy one with Emery winning game three and four to get back into the contest at 2-2. Heaton made a good shot and Pickup picked up an ace for the Cats. A long serve by Emery and a wide return gave Union a 13-11 edge. Nielsen put a shot just in bounds and Heaton drilled a shot for 16-15 Cat lead. An ace by Morgan Collins and another good shot had Union ahead 19-17. Murdock’s good move over the net had Union up 20-19. Union led 21-19, but Emery won a long volley to tie the match at 23-23. A shot in the corner gave Emery a 24-23 edge and the Spartans won the third game 25-23 when Union couldn’t come up with the ball. The Cats grabbed a 2-0 lead, but soon found themselves behind 16-8 with a backward hit over the net being a key shot in a long, long volley win by Emery. The Spartans cruised to a 25-20 fourth game win. Union woke up from its two game nap and pounded the Spartans to win the fifth and final game.

Union’s Mitch Hall (center) tries to get by a Carbon Dino. Hall netted Union’s first touchdown in its game vs. Carbon.

The win gives Carbon its first 4-0 record since the 1950s when the Dinos were a Utah powerhouse in football with a state title in that period. Naturally Dino head coach Jeff Blanc was proud of his Dinos. “That is what high school football is all about - both teams played their hearts out and especially on defense,” Coach Blanc said. “We clicked on that final drive and got the touchdown by Daulton Nelson.” One Carbon assistant coach couldn’t recall the last time Carbon defeated Union, but said,”It has been a while since Carbon earned a win over Union.” The Dinos were pumped up from the start with a pass catch by Nick Haycock placing Carbon at Union’s 35-yard line. A running play put Carbon at the Union 9-yard line. Union’s defense shut the Dinos down and they settled for a 25-yard field goal by Tanner Gagnon to go up 3-0 with 9:57 left in the

first quarter. Carbon’s offense was stuck in neutral and then J.J. Morley, a former Carbon athlete two years ago made a good punt return to the Dino 35-yard line. Morley wasn’t done. He made a circus catch at the Carbon 3-yard line. Mitch Hall scored Union’s first touchdown on a one-yard run and Hunter Hullinger made the extra-point kick to give the Cats’ a 7-3 edge with 9:14 to go in the second quarter. Hullinger was Union’s starting quarterback. Haycock gave Carbon touchdown fever with three pass catches in one drive with the third one - an 11-yard pass from Dakota Cisneros - giving the Dinos a score and a 10-7 lead with 2:57 left in the first half. Earlier in the drive Cisneros netted a first down on a fourth down quarterback sneak by a hair or two. Union overcame a Carbon halftime lead of 10-7 with a touchdown score early in the third quarter. Union moved down the field on running plays by Morley and Hall plus a face mask penalty placed the Cats on Carbon’s 35. Hall made a good run and Morley advanced Union to Carbon’s 5-yard line. Morley went the rest of the way for a touchdown that put Union up 13-10 with 7:11 to go in the third quarter. The extra-point kick was no good. Penalties tormented Union the rest of game, but Carbon rallied back to beat the Union Cougars to snap a seven game losing streak to the Cats. Union will hit the road for games at Payson (a new 3A team) on Friday and at Park City on Sept. 23.The Miners are 1-3 after a 33-22 loss to Delta. Payson lost to Lehi 56-24 and has 2-2 record.

Opposing Teams I enjoyed fooling with people’s minds by wearing sports shirts that happened to not be connected with my cap. I recently wore a green Red Sox t-shirt of closer Jonathan Papelbon (green for St. Patrick’s Day) that was topped off by my New York Yankees cap that is covered with the years that New York has won World Series. The Yankees have won World Series from the 1920s to 2009. The only decade that they didn’t win a World Series was in the 1990s (maybe Rickey Henderson - the former Oakland A - had something to do with the Yanks getting a F for that decade when he played for the New York Yankees). So far a guy who doesn’t like the Yankee World Series cap hasn’t seen my Red Sox/Yankee outfit. He tells me I need a skateboard as an accessory to my Yankee gear and said I would look better in a St. Louis Cardinals cap. I wonder how the Cardinal cap would look with a Milwaukee Brewer t-shirt of Prince Fielder (The first place Brewers are up on the Cardinals by about nine games in their division in the National League.) The only person that day who noticed my Red Sox/Yankee outfit was a guy who works at a local bank. A person who works with figures would probably pick out a person wearing

Red Sox and Yankees clothing because of the low number of people dressed in such gear I told the bank man that I purchased the shirt and I was getting my money’s worth no matter what Yankee and Red Sox fans thought. It was a good thing that I wore Red Sox clothing at Fenway Park because there were “drunks” trying to pick fights with other “drunks” right in front of us. I’m glad -some what- that I wore Red Sox stuff because I didn’t want to take part in a fight. I just wanted to watch the game and explain the infield fly rule to my niece Sara. Gardner Beats Red Sox Some times I think that I discovered Yankee outfielder Brett Gardner in 2008. I attended my first Yankee game in New York City in 2008 and to make it a perfect game (not baseball’s perfect game) the Red Sox team was the opponent. It was a wild game that went into one extra inning - the tenth and Gardner took over. With two outs and two strikes Gardner singled up the middle to score Robinson Cano to beat the Red Sox and ace closer Jonathan Papelbon 5-4. My trip to Yankee Stadium was super with a win over the Red Sox being the icing on the cake. The only disappointment was I didn’t get to check out Monument Park (honors Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle, etc.) behind the outfield in Yankee Stadium. Gardner is still with the Yankees. He is currently batting .265 with seven home runs, 35 runs-batted-in, 77 runs scored and 43 stolen bases. Colorado Rockies vs. Yankees I will never forget the game where I saw the Yankees lose to the Colorado Rockies in Denver a few seasons prior to my visit to Yankee Stadium, but what was even worse was afterward when I locked my keys in my rental car’s trunk. I didn’t have an extra key and so I was out of luck. It took about two hours for help to show up at around midnight. Naturally I was wearing a Yankee cap and it seemed that all the folks heading to bars in Denver wanted to know the score. When this Yankee fan in his New York cap said,”The Yankees lost” they had smiles on their faces upon hearing that the Rockies won. I thought that they didn’t bother to attend the game as they had their minds on six-packs. I saw Yankee hurlers Andy Pettitte, Roger Clemens and Mike Messina, but they came out losers to the Rockies. Jeff Francis was one of the pitching heroes for Colorado. They are gone from the Colorado-New York scene and I don’t have to give game updates to Colorado fans. While I was at a game between the Colorado Rockies and New York Yankees I was tormented by a guy dressed in Red Sox gear. He kept bugging me by calling me “A-Rod” because I wearing a brand new Alex Rodriguez t-shirt that I purchased at a Denver store. Rodriguez plays for the Yankees. I told the Red Sox supporter in Denver to go jump in the Great Salt Lake or some place similar that is nice and hot.

Diamond Mountain nets 14 to 7 win over AHS By Aldon Rachele Uintah Basin Standard Altamont led 7-6, but Diamond Mountain, a private school in Hurricane, scored in the final minutes to earn a 14-7 triumph over the Longhorns in Altamont on Friday. Fans who left the game after the third quarter missed the whole game as all the scoring took place in the fourth quarter with Diamond Mountain netting two TDs and Altamont one touchdown. Diamond Mountain got into position for the first touchdown on a 60-yard pass in the third quarter. Altamont was called for a penalty and Diamond

Mountain ran the ball in for a touchdown early in the fourth quarter. Altamont’s Alex Mackey stopped Diamond Mountain on a two-point conversion when he knocked down a pass. Kyle Foy scored Altamont’s touchdown on a running play. A key play was a 60-yard run by Foy that put AHS on the Diamond Mountain 15-yard line. Mackey’s extra-point kick put Altamont ahead 7-6. Good AHS defense had Diamond Mountain stopped some what, but the down south team hit a 50 yard pass to advance to Altamont’s 9-yard line. A few plays later Diamond Mountain

scored the game winning touchdown and added the two-point conversion on a pass with 1:30 left. “They stopped us with minutes to go and that’s the way it goes,� said Altamont coach Mick Fieldsted. “We dominated the first half as twice we had the ball inside the 10-yard line. We couldn’t score and had trouble with penalties and fumbles. We took the opening drive to their 5-yard line. We fumbled and held on to the ball, but suffered a ten-yard loss. They stopped our drive.� Altamont will have a bye this week and then will play at Rich on Sept. 23.

Carbon High School’s Daulton Nelson (right) runs into the end zone for the game winning touchdown in the final minutes of Union’s Homecoming game on Friday. Two Cougars fail in their bid to stop Nelson from scoring. Carbon owns its first 4-0 record since the 1950s.

Carbon Dinos team edges Cats in final minutes 17-13 By Aldon Rachele Uintah Basin Standard The Union High School team was up 13-10 with the ball in Carbon territory and another score would give the Cats a Homecoming game victory, but one big mistake did Union in. Carbon’s Garrett Hunt shot down the Roosevelt team’s hopes on an interception with less than four minutes left in the game on Friday in Roosevelt. The Dinos used Hunt’s interception to pump them

up on their way to a rare win over Union at 17-13 as Daulton Nelson scored a touchdown on an eight yard run with 3:36 remaining. Carbon beat Union for the first time since 2002 when they defeated Union 42-27 behind four touchdowns by Jamal Lewis (not the NFL all-star pro). The Dinos started what turned out to be its winning drive on the Dino 48-yard line. Successful passes moved Carbon to Union’s 8-yard line, and then Nelson took over

offensively with his game winning touchdown. “I got great blocking from my line. I stuck my head down and followed my blockers into the end zone for the game winning touchdown,” said Nelson, who is a senior running back on the Carbon team. Union didn’t quit as the Cats pocketed a first down at their own 41 with minutes left in the game, but they could solve Hunt, who was the Dino defensive hero with another interception late in the quarter and knocked down a Union pass

Union High School lost to Emery at the St. George Tournament on Aug. 19-20, but revenge was sweet and quick as the Lady Cats beat the Spartans in the volleyball rematch 17 days later at Roosevelt in five games 25-17, 25-23, 23-25, 20-25, 15-6 on Tuesday. Union defeated Duchesne’s 1A team on Aug. 31 and the win over Emery was the Cats’ first triumph over a former 3A squad that is now a 2A crew. Union lost to Judge on Thursday in its Region 10 opener. A foul up had Union down 43 in the early stages of the final game, but after 4-4 and 5-5 ties the Cats took charge behind a save at the net by Libby Heaton and Taylor Duncan that was converted into a 7-5 Cat lead. Earlier a net serve by Emery put Union up 6-5. Union went on an 8-0 run to lock up the final game win in the match over Emery. Heaton drilled a shot plus put the ball between a number of Spartans
