Utah Master Naturalist was developed to help you initiate or continue your own personal journey to increase your understanding of, and appreciation for, Utah’s amazing natural world. We will explore and learn aBout the major ecosystems of Utah, the plant and animal communities that depend upon those systems, and our role in shaping our past, in determining our future, and as stewards of the land. Utah Master Naturalist is a certification program developed By Utah State University Extension with the partnership of more than 25 other organizations in Utah.

  • Provo River Watershed Plan Introduction Public Water Systems
    Provo River Watershed Plan Introduction Public water systems (PWSs) in the State of Utah who treat surface water or groundwater under the direct influence of surface water are required by the Drinking Water Source Protection (DWSP) Rule, to develop, submit and implement a DWSP Plan for all sources of public drinking water. All PWSs are required to delineate watershed protection zones, develop a listing of potential contamination sources within the protection zones, and subsequently prepare and implement management plans to provide protection for surface water sources within the watershed protection zones. The following PWSs along the Wasatch Front have formed the Watershed Protection Coalition (Coalition) and have initiated a cooperative project to develop their DWSP Plans for the Provo River Basin Watershed: Central Utah Water Conservancy District Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District Metropolitan Water District of Salt Lake & Sandy The mission of the Watershed Protection Coalition is to: Work cooperatively to understand the watershed, identify priorities, and develop and implement long-term strategies to protect the drinking water source(s) from contamination, as a primary safeguard to protect the public health. Support federal, state and local agencies that are empowered with the authority and jurisdiction necessary to protect the watershed(s) and drinking water source(s) through regulations, rules and ordinances. The members of the Coalition, all of whom are active signing and funding members of the Provo River Watershed Council (PRWC), are working together to protect regional surface water resources. By working together in cooperation with other agencies and programs, the Coalition is able to maximize efficiency, and jointly manage potential contamination sources.

  • Hasan Kwame Jeffries' Essay
    PART THREE Creating and Communicating Movement History: Methodology and Theory HASAN KWAME JEFFRIES Remaking History Barack Obama, Political Cartoons, and the Civil Rights Movement n the forty- !"h anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have Oa Dream” speech, which he delivered on August #$, %&'(, during the March on Washington, Barack Obama accepted the Democratic Party’s nom- ination for president of the United States. In doing so, he became the !rst African American to earn the top spot on a major political party’s presiden- tial ticket. This historical twist of fate was not lost on Obama, but in keeping with his campaign strategy, which called for him to avoid discussing race, he downplayed the happenstance, alluding to it only with a passing refer- ence to “a young preacher from Georgia.”) The media, however, did not hesi- tate to point out the coincidence, freely invoking the spirit of King and the March on Washington. Political cartoonists re*ected this tendency in their work. While covering Obama’s nomination, they made frequent reference to that historic day nearly half a century earlier. Cartoonist R. J. Matson, for example, published a piece the day before Obama’s acceptance speech that featured King, standing on steps not unlike those of the Lincoln Memorial (from which King delivered his most famous speech), holding an oversized replica of Obama’s campaign emblem high above his head., Allusions to King and the March on Washington made by those covering Obama’s campaign neither began nor ended with the Democratic National Convention. Instead, they spanned the full length of Obama’s run for the White House, starting in earnest the day he announced his candidacy in Feb- ruary #--.

  • Ecological Importance of Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Utah Lake
    Ecological Importance of Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Utah Lake File name: Ecological Role of Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Utah Lake Focus on the Keystone Taxon Chironomidae and HABs Version 1.2 Ecological Importance of Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Utah Lake With a Focus on the Role of the Keystone Taxon Chironomidae on HABs Progress Report January 28, 2017 By: David C. Richards, Ph. D. OreoHelix Consulting Phone: 406.580.7816 Email: [email protected] and Theron Miller, Ph.D. Jordan River Farmington Bay Water Quality Council OreoHelix Consulting 1 Ecological Importance of Benthic Macroinvertebrates in Utah Lake Introduction Benthic macroinvertebrates are a critical component of the ecology and ecosystem functioning of Utah Lake. They are a major link between sediment chemistry, water column chemistry, nutrient cycling, benthic algae, phytoplankton, and Utah Lake’s food web including carp, game fish, June suckers, waterfowl, shorebirds, etc. Benthic invertebrates provide underappreciated but invaluable ecosystem services and are keystone taxa instrumental for the functioning of Utah Lake’ ecosystem. It has become clear that several dominant benthic taxa, primarily chironomids, play a key role in the timing and intensity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) in the lake. Very few studies have been conducted on the benthic invertebrate assemblages in Utah Lake (Barnes and Toole 1981, Spencer and Denton 2003, Shiozawa and Barnes 1977) and none were conducted at the level and intensity that is presently being accomplished by this group. No study has ever examined the role of benthic invertebrates on HABs in Utah Lake, this is the first. Our research is also an important element of sediment chemistry, nutrients, and food web models that are presently being conducted by us and others on Utah Lake.

  • Provo River Delta Groundbreaking June 11, 2020
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: June 11, 2020 MEDIA CONTACT: Cindy Gubler at 801-971-5639 or [email protected] A decade in the making: Officials break ground on nearly 260-acre Provo River Delta project to help recover the endangered June sucker PROVO — After more than a decade of planning and coordination, Chris Keleher, Director of Species Recovery at the Utah Department of Natural Resources, climbed aboard an excavator to perform a literal groundbreaking, while other project partners joined him to usher in the construction of the nearly 260-acre Provo River Delta project. The project will restore the interface between the Lower Provo River and Utah Lake as another step in the effort to recover the endangered June sucker. The project, which is located a half mile north of Utah Lake State Park, will take about five years to complete. Crews will start by excavating a system of braided waterways and wetlands into which the last mile and a half of the Lower Provo River will be diverted. This constructed system will provide the environs for Utah Lake and Provo River flows to meet and mingle. In 2022, the northern half of Skipper Bay dike, which was initially constructed in the 1940s to disconnect land east of it from Utah Lake, will be lowered and most of the Lower Provo River’s flow will be diverted north of its current location into a new channel. The Provo River and Utah Lake will once again be interconnected through a delta, providing essential habitat for the survival of the June sucker.
