    Utah Geological Survey Project: Investigation of the April 11, 2009, 1550 East Provo rock fall, Provo, Utah By: Date: County: Richard E. Giraud, P.G., 07-2-09 Utah Ashley H. Elliott, and Jessica J. Castleton USGS Quadrangles: Section/Township/Range: Orem (1088), Bridal Veil Sections 32 and 33, R. 3 E., T. 6 S., Falls (1087) SLBM Requested by: Job number: Lewis Billings, Mayor, 09-02 Provo City INTRODUCTION On April 11, 2009, around 11:30 a.m., rock detached from a cliff band producing a rock fall on the upper part of Y Mountain (figures 1 and 2) above Provo, Utah. Rock debris traveled down the west side of Y Mountain into a subdivision. One rock impacted and severely damaged a vacant house at 1496 North 1550 East (figure 3). Another rock damaged a fence and playhouse at 1522 North 1550 East (figure 4). The damaged house at 1496 North 1550 East is one lot north of 1468 North 1550 East, where a guest house was destroyed by a rock fall on May 12, 2005 (Christenson and Giraud, 2005). The 2005 and 2009 rock-fall paths are shown in figure 2. Provo City Mayor Lewis Billings requested that the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) investigate the rock fall. On April 15, 2009, we provided Mayor Billings a letter with our initial conclusions and recommendations. This report provides supplemental information on the rock- fall hazard and restates our conclusions and recommendations. The purpose of our investigation was to determine the geologic characteristics of the rock fall and evaluate future-hazard potential to aid Provo City in assessing the risk to houses and city infrastructure in the area.

    Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Denver Airports District Office DRAFT SECTION 303(c)/4(f) DE MINIMIS FINDING For the Provo Municipal Airport City of Provo, Utah County, Utah I. Introduction - Section 4(f) Section 4(f) was initially codified in Title 49 United States Code (USC) § 1653(f) (Section 4(f) of the USDOT Act of 1966). In 1983, § 1653(f) was reworded and recodified as Title 49 USC § 303 but is still commonly referred to as Section 4(f). Congress amended Section 4(f) in 2005 when the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) was enacted. Section 4(f) declares that “it is the policy of the US Government that special effort should be made to preserve the natural beauty of the countryside and public park and recreation lands, wildlife and waterfowl refuges, and historic sites.” In addition: Section 4(f) prohibits the use of land of significant publicly owned public parks, recreation areas, wildlife and waterfowl refuges, and land of a historic site for transportation projects unless the Administration determines that there is no feasible and prudent avoidance alternative and that all possible planning to minimize harm has occurred. De minimis impacts related to historic sites are defined as the determination of either “no adverse effect” or “no historic properties affected” in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. For publicly owned parks, recreation areas, and wildlife/waterfowl refuges, de minimis impacts are defined as those that do not “adversely affect the activities, features, and attributes” of the Section 4(f) resource.

Honors Thesis KARL G. MAESER: THE MORMON PESTALOZZIAN by Renae Myers Submitted to Brigham Young University in partial fulfillment of graduation requirements for University Honors Philosophy Department Brigham Young University August 2020 Advisor: A. LeGrand Richards Honors Coordinator: Ryan Christensen ii ABSTRACT KARL G. MAESER: THE MORMON PESTALOZZIAN Renae Myers Philosophy Department Bachelor of Arts Karl G. Maeser, the founder of Brigham Young Academy (now Brigham Young University), was able to bring progressive education to a pioneer society largely due to his educational and spiritual preparation. He was trained in the pedagogical methods of Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi who believed that children learned best inductively, mainly through observation. Pestalozzi also believed that children were worthy of love and respect. Maeser was able to emulate Pestalozzi’s methods in an unprecedented way not only because the doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ aligned so well with Pestalozzi’s methods, but because Maeser strove to have the Spirit of God influence every lesson. The tributes given by his students at Brigham Young Academy are evidence of his unique influence.

BACKGROUND/HISTORY The Maeser Neighborhood is located south of Center Street, east of University Avenue, west of 900 East, and north of 600 South. Center, University, and 900 E. are all arterial (major) streets. 300 South (Highway 89) bisects the neighborhood along the east-west axis. Development of this area of the City began with some of the early settlers and gradually continued throughout the years. As one of the early areas to develop in Provo, the Maeser Neighborhood is often referred to as a Pioneer Neighborhood. Like the other Pioneer Neighborhoods in Provo, Maeser was named after the school that is in the neighborhood. The Maeser School gets its name from a renowned educator in Provo, Karl G. Maeser. The Maeser School is the oldest existing school building in Provo, having been built in 1898. The area was laid out on a block grid with eight lots per block that alternated orientation from one block to the next. The southern border of the neighborhood was the edge of the platted block grid.

  • PROVO RIVER DELTA RESTORATION PROJECT Final Environmental Impact Statement Volume I: Chapters 1–5
    PROVO RIVER DELTA RESTORATION PROJECT Final Environmental Impact Statement Volume I: Chapters 1–5 April 2015 UTAH RECLAMATION 230 South 500 East, #230, Salt Lake City, UT 84102 COMMISSIONERS Phone: (801) 524-3146 – Fax: (801) 524-3148 Don A. Christiansen MITIGATION Brad T. Barber AND CONSERVATION Dallin W. Jensen COMMISSION Dear Reader, April 2015 Attached is the Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Provo River Delta Restoration Project (PRDRP). The proposed project would restore a naturally functioning river- lake interface essential for recruitment of June sucker (Chasmistes liorus), an endangered fish species that exists naturally only in Utah Lake and its tributaries. In addition to fulfilling environmental commitments associated with water development projects in Utah and contributing to recovery of an endangered species, the project is intended to help improve water quality on the lower Provo River and to provide enhancements for public recreation in Utah County. Alternative B has been identified as the preferred alternative because it would minimize the amount of private lands that would need to be acquired for the project while still providing adequate space for a naturally functioning river delta and sufficient habitat enhancement for achieving the need for the project. The agencies preparing the Final EIS are the Utah Reclamation Mitigation and Conservation Commission (Mitigation Commission), the Central Utah Water Conservancy District, and the Central Utah Project Completion Act (CUPCA) Office of the U.S. Department of the Interior, collectively referred to as the Joint Lead Agencies. The Final EIS, Executive Summary and Technical Reports can be viewed or downloaded from the project website www.ProvoRiverDelta.us or by requesting a copy on CD.
