April 21-27, 1999 Washington D.C. report The group met with the Congressional Delegations of the States of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming, Congressional committee staff for the authorizing and appropriations committees having jurisdiction over the Bureau of Reclamation and Fish and Wildlife Service, Administration officials and several other entities. We were quite pleased with the indications of support for Program funding evidenced by getting nine of the ten members of the House delegations from Colorado, Utah and Wyoming to consent to sign the joint delegation funding support letters. In addition, letters supporting funding for the San Juan River Basin Endangered Fish Recovery Implementation Program were shared with the Congressional delegations of the States of Colorado and New Mexico and the request was made that they sign onto these letters addressed to the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Subcommittees of the House and Senate. www.r6.fws.gov /crrip/doc/dc/dctrip99.htm

Definition of United States Congressional Apportionment University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill by over 2,000 students; although this was not a large enough error to tip the seat to the Utah delegation, it meant that Utah was, according to revised figures, only about 80 residents short of earning an additional Congressional seat. The size of the Congressional delegations from the thirteen original states were assigned by the Constitution for use until the completion of the first U.S. Census. A compromise measure was introduced to Congress by Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia, but did not reach a floor vote; it would have temporarily increased the size of Congress to 437 seats until 2010, granting an additional seat to Utah and a voting seat to the District of Columbia. www.wordiq.com /definition/United_States_Congressional_Apportionment

WorldNetDaily: U.S. quietly grabs Utah land The Utah legislature was completely left out of the deals that were made, and many were left with the feeling that the state was first blindsided by Clinton and then blindsided by Leavitt and the congressional delegation. Utah's loss of 62 billion tons of coal on the Kaiporowitz Plateau is to be offset by receipt of 160 million tons of coal in the exchange. Two Utah counties, Emery and Garfield, suffered a major loss when their land was declared a new national monument by Clinton in 1996, and they suffered another loss when Leavitt agreed to swap that land for other federal property. www.worldnetdaily.com /news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=16724   (2537 words)

High Country News -- March 22, 1993: ANIMAS-LA PLATA: The last big dam in the West With the help of then Interior Secretary Manuel Lujan and the Colorado and New Mexico congressional delegations, the coalition bullied the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service into delaying its ruling until a seven-year study could be conducted. In the last five years, Colorado's Two Forks Dam, North Dakota's Garrison Project, Cliff Dam in Arizona, and the Central Utah Project, to name a few, were all either killed, changed beyond recognition, or indefinitely delayed. At the same time, Campbell says he and the rest of the Colorado delegation will push to see that A-LP stays on track. www.hcn.org /1993/mar22/dir/lead2.html   (2578 words)

Wilderness Society The Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, The Wilderness Society, and the Sierra Club joined with the Utah congressional delegation, Governor Jon Huntsman, and a coalition of citizens opposing nuclear waste storage in Utah to voice support for reintroduction of the Utah Test and Training Range Protection Act. In addition to wilderness designation for the Cedar Mountains, the legislation continues the effort to address longstanding public concern over a proposed nuclear waste storage facility on the Goshute Indian Reserveration just 40 miles from downtown Salt Lake City and adjacent to the Utah Test and Training Range. Protecting this stunning desert mountain range from development and off-road vehicle abuse will ensure that this local treasure will continue to be available for generations to come. www.commondreams.org /cgi-bin/print.cgi?file=/news2005/0331-01.htm   (1031 words)
