Doug wanted to clarify with the commission one more time that the reimbursement to Horrocks Engineering for irrigation supplies on the Strawberry River Bridges project is for 20% of the $1462.  UDOT will pay the remaining 80% if Duchesne County will agree to pay 20%.  Horrocks Engineering will then refund the 20% back to the county.  If the commission will not approve the payment UDOT will not pay.  Commissioner Thayne stated that an engineering mistake was made by Horrocks Engineers.  The tax payers should not be responsible for payment of engineering errors.

Commissioner Stradinger informed Doug that she had talked with Dallas Perank BIA road supervisor regarding a memorandum of understanding on the Arcaida Road with Vernon Palmer BIA.

Commissioner Thayne asked Doug what his plans were for the 1992 dump truck.  The commissionr has received a call asking if the truck is for sale.  Doug answered that he would like to trade it on a new one or offer it for sale.

Mr. Hagman asked if the survey and the engineering on the Road #64 in Arcadia had been done.  Doug informed him that as soon as UDOT provides the paperwork indicating that the project is on the Special Transportation Improvement Project they will get started.  The road will be widened from Hwy 40 west to the proposed bridge.  Mr. Hagman will provide at fifty cents per ton pit run material to be used on the project in exchange for a right-of-way on his property for the proposed new bridge.  Mr. Hagman asked if the old dump property could be deeded back to him so he could fence it to keep illegal dumping and shooters out.  This would eliminate a liability problem for the county.  Commissioner Thayne suggested that Doug check with Department of Environmental Quality to see if this transfer can be done.   Doug will get the information and turn it over to Attorney Uresk for an opinion.

Dorothy Ivie - Rock Creek Road Issues:   Mrs. Ivie reminded the commission that she had been in a few months ago requesting work on Road #93 in Utahn.

Doug stated that the grader will be there sometime this fall or winter.  Commissioner Thayne stated that rights-of-way are being obtained from SR 35 to the curve by Potters.  We will build the road up and gravel it this winter.

There will be snow removal as needed this winter.   Road #93 will not be in line for pavement until after 2002.

CIB Application for Geo-Thermo Energy Study - Laurie Brummond.  The commission will review this application with commissioner Ross before a decision is made.
