  • 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.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • 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.

The early settlement and development of our country occurred along our coasts and water courses. The management of our land and water resources was the catalyst which enabled us to progress from a basically rural and agrarian economy to the urban and industrialized nation we are today. Since the General Survey Act of 1824, the US Army Corps of Engineers has played a vital role in the development and management of our national water resources. At the direction of Presidents and with Congressional authorization and funding, the Corps of Engineers has planned and executed major national programs for navigation, flood control, water supply, hydroelectric power, recreation and water conservation which have been responsive to the changing needs and demands of the American people for 152 years.

  • Elam Luddington: First Latter-Day Saint Missionary to Thailand
    Michael A. Goodman 10 Elam Luddington: First Latter-day Saint Missionary to Thailand I will keep digging till you all say enough, and then if you see fit to call me home, I shall be truly in heaven and happy in the extreme; or if you say “Spend your days in [this part of the world], it shall be even so; not my will but my Heavenly Fathers be done.” Elam Luddington1 lam Luddington, the first Latter-day Saint missionary to Siam (mod- Eern Thailand), faced tremendous hardships in his pioneering proselyt- ing work. Almost killed at sea numerous times, stoned twice, poisoned once, and finally mobbed, he left the Thai people after little more than four months. No further formal missionary work was attempted for over one hundred years in the ancient land of Siam. His sacrifice, however, laid the foundation for the future work of bringing the fullness of the gospel to Thailand. His efforts were not in vain. His legacy of faithfulness would be Michael A. Goodman is an associate professor of Church history and doctrine at Brigham Young University. Go Ye into All the World followed by other modern-day pioneers who would also show tremendous bravery and faithfulness in the face of forbidding odds.

  • County Commission Update: Protecting a Vital Natural Resource
    County Commission Update: Protecting a Vital Natural Resource By Wade Mathews, Public Information Officer It’s a remnant of an ancient body of water that once covered most of our county and much of the western states region. Now the Great Salt Lake is all that remains of Lake Bonneville. Because of its unique mineral qualities, the Great Salt Lake, specifically its south arm, provides a valuable resource to our county. The lake’s minerals are utilized by several large businesses in Tooele County, it provides recreation opportunities, and the lake is a great tourist attraction to this area. But that resource that is the Great Salt Lake is being threatened. The Tooele County Commission has learned of a proposal by Great Salt Lake Minerals Corporation (GSL), located on the north side of the lake that has the potential of decreasing the level of the southern arm by six to 30 inches a year. GSL originally proposed withdrawing 360,000 acre feet of water per year from the north arm of the lake. Due to some criticism, GSL may reduce that request. The lake is already at historic low levels due to the past draught experienced in the region. Commissioner Jerry Hurst says, “GSL’s proposal could have a drastic effect on the operations of our businesses located along the southern shore. Five major companies and several small businesses rely on the lake being at a certain level and on having high salinity content.” Those major companies include Morton Salt, Cargill Salt, Broken Arrow, US Magnesium and Allegheny Technologies. They make up the Tooele County Great Salt Lake South Arm Industry Consortium.
