Local Students Make Trip to Washington with Prevention Coalition

UDWR Announces Finalized Water Resources Plan

Garfield County Commission February 14

SALT LAKE CITY - After processing over 270 public comments, the Utah Division of Water Resources has finalized the Water Resources Plan. This plan is the result of years of data gathering, modeling and other collaborative efforts to identify when and where water will be needed throughout the state.

“A safe, reliable water supply is critical to Utah’s prosperity and quality of life.

This plan provides a comprehensive look at Utah’s current water use and supply conditions and future demand scenarios,” said Candice Hasenyager, director of the Division of Water Resources.

“It’s a long-range planning document that looks 50 years into the future and has been years in the making.”

The plan focuses on three water management principles: • Reliable data is needed to make informed water management decisions.

• Supply security requires a comprehensive approach.

• Healthy watersheds are necessary to ensure the viability of the state’s precious water resources.

SALT LAKE CITY Usually, when people hear the term “poaching,” illegally killing wildlife without proper permits comes to mind. But another form of that is illegally obtaining those permits through fraud, and Utah Division of Wildlife Resources conservation officers have recently investigated several of those types of cases.

The Commissioners approved up to $12K for a cattle guard requested by Doug Cox and Sean Frost for their East Bench allotment near the Panguitch airport. Materials for a 12-ft section would cost $9000, plus concrete and labor. Commissioners discussed lowering costs by using county or jail resources for the labor.

Torrey Town Council

by Amiee Maxwell

February 10 TORREY - The February 10 Torrey Town Council kicked off with a report from Mayor Wright. He provided an update on upcoming UDOT projects in the Torrey area and reported that he is currently pursuing funding options for a walking path through town, a possible speed study, and grants to assist with drainage help needed in town. He also gave a report on possible affordable housing grants to pursue and said that the town is unlikely to get a CIB grant for new playground equipment, so they will pursue a grant through the Eccles Foundation. He also reported that Dave Love was elected chairman of the Planning and Zoning Committee and that Steve Babbitt has offered to take a potential open seat on the committee.

Next, the council approved a resolution related to the number of new connections available for Torrey Torrey Council Cont'd on page 3

PRE-SORT STANDARD PAID RICHFIELD, UTAH PERMIT No. 122

Intermountain Healthcare Launches New Long COVID Navigation Program for ‘Long Haulers’ Who Continue to Experience Symptoms Long After Infection UTAH - Intermountain Healthcare is launching a major new medical resource for Utahns who’re considered “long haulers”—people who have tested positive for coronavirus who continue to experience chronic symptoms months after their recovery from the virus.

Intermountain doctors outlined the new Intermountain Healthcare Long COVID Navigation Program and how it will serve as a resource for Utahns at a press briefing on Monday, February 14, 2022.

The program is designed to help triage resources and care for COVID patients in Utah who have experienced ongoing COVID symptoms for 12 weeks or longer. Based on a patient’s condition, symptoms, and acuity, they’ll be referred to a specialist who can follow up and address their ongoing medical issues.

The phone number for the new Intermountain Healthcare Long COVID Navigation Program is 801408-5888.

“As far as we know, this is one of the first kinds of COVID patient navigation programs in the nation,” said Dixie Harris, MD, a critical care physician at Intermountain Healthcare, who treats patients with COVID. “This is not a standalone clinic, but a multi-disciplinary approach and resource for patients

across the state of Utah who are experiencing Long COVID.” Long COVID refers to COVID-19 patients who have persistent symptoms three months or longer after their initial infection.

Some studies and surveys with patients show that between 30–50% of people infected with COVID continue to have bothersome symptoms for months, even though the virus is no longer in their bodies.

Based on those figures, researchers estimate that 100 million people worldwide have experienced lingering health concerns or are still reporting problems following a COVID infection and can be considered COVID Long Haulers.

“Many patients who we’re treating are frustrated with their ongoing symptoms and that they just don’t feel like they did before they became sick. They need validation that their condition is real and that there is hope,” said Ellie Hirshberg, MD, Intermountain Healthcare critical care physician involved in the Intermountain Long COVID Navigation Program. “The good news is that for many patients, they do get better, but it can be a slow process.”

Water Resources Plan: In

the past, statewide water plans have been more of a status update. This plan focuses on goals the division will strive to accomplish by 2026 and was shaped by input from the State Water Plan Advisory Committee, a diverse group of experts and stakeholders.

—Rachel Shilton, Utah Division of Water Resources River Basin Planning Manager

Water Resources Plan Cont'd from page 1

It also prioritizes actions the Utah Division of Water Resources will undertake in the coming years.

“In the past, statewide water plans have been more of a status update,” said Rachel Shilton, the division’s river basin planning manager. “This plan focuses on goals the division will strive to accomplish by 2026 and was shaped by input from the State Water Plan Advisory Committee, a diverse group of experts and stakeholders.”

“We appreciate all those who took time to review the plan,” said Hasenyager. “Input from the public is valuable. We reviewed the comments and made changes to the plan where appropriate.”

Although the numbers did not change, the comments improved the readability of the report including text clarifications that make the report better. All 274 original comments and the division’s response to them are included in Appendix I of the report.

The comments were collected during a 45-day comment period that ran from Sept. 29 -

Nov. 15.

Water management is complicated and involves the coordination of several state agencies as well as local suppliers that have already begun a collaborative effort to produce a more holistic plan.

Utah’s Coordinated Water Action Plan has contributing agencies: Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget, Department of Agriculture and Food, Department of Environmental Quality (divisions of Drinking Water and Water Quality), and Department of Natural Resources (divisions of Water Resources, Water Rights, Wildlife and Forestry, Fire and State Lands). This coordinated action plan will include a comprehensive implementation strategy as the state continues to plan for rapid growth, climate change and sound management of an uncertain natural resource.

Vote for Evan McMullin to Replace Senator Mike Lee I think it is safe to say that the overwhelming majority of concerned Americans can agree that strengthening our democracy, rejecting extremism, ensuring access to voting for all citizens, lowering health care costs, reducing unaccountable government spending, protecting our environment and keeping America safe from enemies—foreign and domestic—are pressing issues around which we can all rally.

This is the platform of Evan McMullin.

He is experienced in government affairs, national security, and politics. Evan was recruited by the CIA in college, and after 9/11, he volunteered to serve in the Middle East to fight terrorism. Later, he was a chief policy director in Congress.

If we want our country to come together, resolve our differences and move forward towards a better America, we MUST start voting differently.

Please, take some time to explore who Evan McMullin is, what he stands for, and how he can help Utahns and Americans alike.

He is running to replace Senator Mike Lee. Lee has little to show for his more than ten years in congress. He won the seat by running a campaign that ridiculed former Sen. Bob Bennett for serving more than two terms in congress. This

year, Lee is running for his third term. His hypocrisy runs deep.

McMullin is not accepting any money from PACs or special interest groups. In the most recent fundraising report, Lee accepted more than a quarter million dollars from PACs and special interest groups. We need a senator who answers to citizens and citizens alone. Evan has pledged to do this.

I’m writing this letter today because every single voter in Garfield and Wayne counties can make an important difference. This race will be close. Evan is running as an independent so that he won’t have to answer to party bosses or special interest groups. Despite being an independent, he still outraised Mike Lee in his first three months on the campaign trail. If we rally behind Evan McMullin, we will create much needed improvements for our state. His influence, leadership, experience and willingness to work with all concerned groups will carry our state and country forward like we truly need.

In November, Evan will be on the ballot as an independent candidate. I hope you’ll join me in voting for him and bringing change to our broken politics. Now is the time.

"I’m So Glad You’re Here" Moving to a new town, and a small rural area, is exciting, and you are grateful for the handful of people you know. Yet, additional welcoming angels seem to come out of the woodwork to make you feel at home, included and loved. In fact, when I attended church one of the first Sundays in Loa, one sweet angel, Karen Ellet, greeted me with, “I’m so glad you’re here,” and hugged me. And every time I saw her after that, she’d say and do the same thing. The best part about Karen’s comments and actions were that she meant them. In fact, I could feel her genuineness.

I had a chance to sit down with Karen. “The best people on earth are here,” she said. “There’s something about this place. The people that are from here and the people that move here. I have always been excited to have new people move here with their many talents, skills and interests who want to help build our community.”

Similarly, another angel, Chris Olsen, during a church women’s meeting, patted the seat next to hers saying, “sit here.” When I asked her why she did that sweet gesture, she replied, “Just to extend a hand of friendship. Life is hard and we can all use more friends.”

She also shared, “I was once new in town and I know what that feels like.”

Another angel, Monte Laing, jokes, “It’s your turn to visit me,” after she paid a visit with treats. And during the writing of this piece, she appeared again with another plate of treats. I asked Monte why she does things like this.

“Because I don’t think there’s another way to be, and be happy,” she said. And speaking of treats, angels Eileen Fahey and Duella Brown have got that down pat as well.

by Cynthia Kimball Davis Angel Melanie Olyer befriended me years ago with an abundance of kindness and compassion and continues to do so.

And Angel Linda Blackburn smiles big, winks, hugs you like a bear and says, “I love you.”

Torrey Council Cont'd from page 1

Town’s culinary water system. The council approved the resolution which limits new connections to 64.

Then, the council welcomed April Morrison as the new Town Clerk. Her request for a credit and debit card for both herself and Mayor Wright was approved by the council. Morrison also provided an update on a certified letter that was sent to a citizen regarding a garbage complaint. Morrison reported that the citizen did not accept the letter. Her attorney was present at the meeting and said the issue should be resolved and that his client has been compliant this whole time.

Colleen Dudleston then presented the financial report. Councilmember Pat Kearney suggested moving some of the town’s money from checking to an interestbearing account. Dudleston will research the options.

Dudleston also presented a brief audit report saying that the town increased its revenue last year but also that she didn’t have the chance to delve into it completely so she will report more on the audit results next month.

Then, it was on to council member reports. Councilmember Kearney reported that an Arbor Day celebration is planned for May 7 and that they will be planting trees with Tree Utah. Councilmember Doug Robinson was not present, but Mayor Wright reported that he went

up Sand Creek to inspect flood damage and vandalism with Robinson and came up with some ideas on how to mitigate the damage.

Councilmember Jordan Pace reported continual issues with the town’s grader and said that Jackson Excavation has a used model available for purchase for $35,000. No decisions were made regarding the grader purchase, but the council approved a motion to have Jackson Excavation take care of some immediate road repair issues.

Carrie Torrey then put out a plea for additional donations for the town’s Easter Egg Hunt, which will be held on April 23. She’s also looking for Apple Days volunteers and a few extra tents to use for the event. More details can be found on the town website.

Representatives from Planning and Zoning reported that they approved Chak Balam’s expansion plan, approved the Mercantile lighting plan, and received an application for Dark Sky Coffee to put in a storage shed and a new sign.

Eduardo Nava then re-

quested a business license for a new restaurant going in at Slackers 2. He recently signed a 2-year-lease to purchase and hopes to open an Americanstyle breakfast restaurant on March 1. The council approved the license contingent on addressing some lighting concerns. The council then reviewed a water connection for Lincoln and Karin Hobbs.

They plan to build a singlefamily residence in the Red Ridge subdivision. The council approved their water connection request.

The last item on the agenda was a complaint regarding a mountain lion hunting guide service operating out of a citizen’s home with several dogs kennelled. Mayor Wright addressed the complaint stating the council found no evidence of a business being run and that there are no town ordinances against the number of dogs at a residence.

Torrey Town Council meetings are held on the 2nd Thursday of every month at 7:00 p.m. June - October and 6:30 p.m November - May— unless otherwise noted.

Swing is the Thing at the Panguitch Valentine's Day Dance

Courtesy Becky Henrie

Over 150 people showed up to dance at the Valentine's Day Dance at the Panguitch Social Hall on February 14, 2022.

PANGUITCH - It looks like swing dancing is going to be a thing now.

Cole from Pangutich, Cooper from Puite, and others came to the Valentine's Day Dance at the Panguitch Social Hall on February 14 with a huge pocket full of new moves they had learned since the New Years Dance, and they taught them to as many kids as they could.

You'll never know just how fun swing can be if you don't give it a good try, and I

don't mean dance a few songs and go home. Try to learn the moves, and then, go out there and dance. Make yourself vulnerable; scary, right? As Dr. Brene Brown said, “Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.

Vulnerability is not weakness; it's our greatest measure of courage...Vulnerability is the cornerstone of confidence."

It can be scary to try something that no one in your

community has tried for decades. There was a reason dancing was a thing for so long; maybe, because it's so fun! Just walking around the Valentine's Dance was evidence of that. If anyone was dancing, they were smiling; you just couldn't help it.

The 4H is having another dance on March 19th from 7 to 10 p.m. at Ebenezer's up at Ruby's. It's free this time, so bring as many people as you can!

PHS Sports Sidelines

Both Bobcat teams play in the finals at Region 20, and State will be at SVC in Richfield on March 2.

Thanks to the State Champion Cheerleaders who keep crowds entertained, and to coaches for all their hard work

The Cats had a great Region 20 tournament, with both teams playing in the finals before a huge crowd.

The tournament ran for three days, and the last two days were at the High School.

The games started at 8:30, and the last games started at 8:00 at night. Each team played till they had two losses, and those with only one loss had games starting at 3:00 to determine who finished where.

The Lady Cats started off the tournament on Wednesday with a victory over Bryce Valley, with a score of 37 to 31. The game was close till senior Abbee Holman caught fire in the fourth quarter and made everything she threw up and ended the game with 19 points and saved the game.

On Friday against the Wayne Badgers, it was the game of the tournament. The Cats had played Wayne three times this season, and the first game went into double overtime, with Cats coming out ahead.

The ladies were behind most of the game, but Sophomore Tabbie Henrie came to the rescue and tied up the game at the buzzer. Tabbie had 23 points, and in the overtime, the Cats went ahead by 6. But

with only a minute left, they made some bad fouls, and the Badgers got back in the game.

The Badgers got the ball with only 8 seconds left, but missed a jump shot at the buzzer, and the Cats came away with a squeaker, 45 to 44.

For the third time this year, the Lady Cats met up with the Piute T-Birds. The girls played much better in this game, but with three minutes left in the game, they came and got me. They were out of popcorn, so I don’t know the final score of the game, and the paper I get the scores from didn’t have the championship scores.

Next week, I will have all of them. I feel that the Lady Cats haven’t seen the last of the TBirds, with State coming up on March 2 at SVC in Richfield.

The Bobcats are getting better with each game, and that is bad news to their opponents. In their opener on Thursday night against Water Canyon, the Cats ran roughshod over a team that they had beaten twice, winning with a score of 84 to 30. Klyn Fullmer had 16, and the rest of the team all got in the scoring column. On Friday night, it was more of the same. Bryce Valley was treated to the Cats' killer defense. Kyler Bennett and Paxton Wolfley blocked shots, holding the Mustang’s 31 points, while the Cats managed 56. Klyn Fullmer had 15, Cody Hatch 13 and Kyler Bennett had 12. In the championship game, the Cats faced Piute, a team that they had beaten by one point at the buzzer. But the Cats just keep getting better with each day and game, and before a large Piute fan base, the Cats used a strong defense and took a close game in the 3rd quarter to a runaway victory, 49 to 37.

The T-Birds rank 2nd in the state, behind the Bobcats, and I expect to see them again at State. Kyler Bennett finished with 14 and Tucker Chappell pitched in 12. State for both teams start March 2 at SVC. Congratulations to all of the Bobcats on being selected to the All Region Academic

team. Hailee Eyre, Abigail Holman and Kyan Orton were chosen for the girls team. Kyler Bennett, Jaron Miller and Paxton Wolfley were chosen for the boys team. They had an accumulative high school grade point average of 3.75.

No matter how the outcome of the State meet ends up, the Bobcats and the Lady Cats have done really well, and their coaches should be commended for all of the many hours that they put in to make these teams this good.

Coaches Nadine and Shae Owens took a team that only won five games last year, and with the same players, they made it through the season with only five losses, with three of those losses being against Piute. They beat a number of 2A teams and have had a really good time playing together.

What can I say about the Bobcats? They were last year’s champs, but with a number of losses this year, they just got stronger and are a much better team than last year with the same players and only had one loss against the first team they played this year. Clint Barney always gets the most out of his players through hard practices. If you didn’t know any better, you would think that Panguitch were State champs every year, but over the years, Coach Barney is the only coach whose teams have won more than one championship.

I can’t say enough about our cheerleaders. At half time, they perform with a new routine each game. This takes many hours of practice, and they are also State champs this year. They are Addison Wright, Berklee Smith, Chanlee Owens, Ryley Veater, Atli Blevins, Oaklee Woolsey, Paisley Henrie, Josslyn Griffin, and this year they have added a stunter in Tyler Cox. Thanks, cheerleader, for your entertainment this year.

There is also a broadcasting team that broadcasts the home games for the shut-ins.

Bless you.

Digital Assets and Estate Planning

by Jeffery J. McKenna Because we spend a lot of time online – banking, shopping, social networking, etc., a new category of personal property seems to have emerged known to estate planners as “digital assets.”

Digital assets include any work or possessions stored on computers, hard drives and the internet. They include photos, videos, emails and playlists. People also store medical records and tax documents. More and more financial institutions encourage account holders to sign up for paperless statements. The list – and potential value – continues to grow. To complicate matters, each of the assets may even require different user names and passwords.

When a person dies without a will (known as dying “intestate”), the state decides how that person’s assets are distributed. But digital assets such as e-mail and social networking accounts are so recent that most courts have not yet developed rules for how to distribute them when there are no instructions by the owner.

Even when there are in-

structions, there are other legal hurdles. Just because you have a user name and password with the user’s consent, you could still violate laws by accessing the other person’s account because many social media websites have contracts that protect the privacy of users.

Many people have arrangements to pay bills online or have assets online that are tied to PayPal, eBay or Amazon.com, etc. Business owners are also likely to store important information on computers, or have a domain name or a blog that can only be accessed by password or email.

For now, until there is legislation enacted that makes it permissible to access online accounts with the consent of account owners, it is probably wise to carefully consider all accounts that are accessed online, including photo-storing sites, PayPal accounts, social media sites, etc. and communicate details to permit access to your personal representative or the trustee of your estate lest important information be inaccessible and lost.

In conclusion, it would be wise to include with your es-

"How would you feel," she asked, "If someone showed up on your doorstep looking very different, spoke a strange language and wore unusual clothes? Wouldn't you be a bit scared?"

"Nah" one boy answered, "I'd just figure it was my sister's date."

Get a Gripe

A mayor of a small town passed out pens imprinted with the message, "Got a gripe?

Call the mayor." One morning the phone rang and his secretary answered it.

"Who was that?" the mayor asked.

"A citizen with a gripe," came the reply. "He said that the pen you gave him doesn't work."

FYI PanguItch

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com For winter time, the weather couldn’t be better, except for the wind. But according to the weather people, winter finally arrived last Monday with some badly needed snow, and the temperatures are sinking. The weather front is supposed to last for three days, and it is going to be really cold. So far the weather people have been wrong, but hopefully, they got it right this time.

This week, the big event has been the Region 20 championship games. This is the second time in a row that Panguitch has hosted this event.

Last year, because of the COVID, there weren’t any concessions. This year, the concessions were run by Paula Palmer, and they did a land office business. On Friday, they were really busy for the last few games and tripled their normal sales. Saturday, it was busy all day long, and for the later games, they ran out of food. In the two days, they sold over 160 pretzels, over 200 bags of popcorn, all kinds of Mexican food and many pounds of meat that went to make the food. We also ran out of pizza after ordering 37 family pizzas from the C-Stop. All of the candy and most of the drinks were gone, and well over 200 bottles of water were also gone. Paula

got many of the player’s parents to work the concessions all season long, and for those two days, they were outstanding. The young people were there helping out, and when there were things to bring in, you didn’t even have to ask them. They just jumped in to help. They do not know how to make an old man feel bad.

I struggle with a case of soda pop, and they can carry three in at a time, about 130 lbs.

The other businesses did real good also. Henrie’s Drive-in was open for the weekend, and cars backed up on Main St. The Big Fish ran out of food. Their business was that good. The bad thing is that when I was on the School Board, I tried to get the Region playoffs here, but the coaches wouldn’t have it.

I don’t know how many years all of this money went over to Cedar City when it could have stayed in our region, but it is sad. PHS gym is the only gym large enough to seat all of the fans, and there were a lot. The whole west side was filled with blue-shirted Piute fans. I think their whole county was there.

It is my understanding that what came out of the meeting over the Air BnBs is that if you live in Panguitch, you can have two Air BnBs, and if you don’t, you can only

own one. I don’t think that can be retroactive.

Got a note from Clint Albrecht that there is going to be a 4-H Shooting Sports Club, and it will be at the Fair Building. They will have 30 targets set up for air guns. Also, there will be archery sets there to learn how to shoot arrows. You can call Clint at 676-1117 for more information.

The Senior Citizens Center is looking for help in the kitchen. It is a part-time job— working Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday—from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The job market is still holding strong, with 467,000 jobs in January, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics also revised earlier estimates from November and December, adding more than 700,000 to what was initially reported.

You can add cooks to the list of people, along with truck drivers, that the country is badly in need of. You can learn both of these trades at the trade tech schools throughout the state.

I heard in an ad from Walmart that they are looking for truck drivers, and they start at $88K a year with benefits.

The richest 0.1% of Americans saw their share of the nation’s wealth rise up to 19.1% from the end of 2019 to 2020. They control more

wealth than over 3.5 billion people in the world combined.

Inflation has risen 7.5 % a year from January of last year. Most of it is due to high oil prices. OPEC is refusing to raise their output to back what it was before they cut our daily amount by 3 million barrels a day. This was done to help our big oil companies get their oil above $40 a barrel. Big Oil is seeing their profits rebound.

Exxon Mobil reported a net profit of $23 billion in 2021, and Chevron reported $15.6 billion in profits. Shale drilling uses high pressure water and sand to blast oil out of stone. Exxon and Chevron made big investments in this method, but the return on their investments has been dreadful. When gas prices go up, it affects everything, including the shipping, which adds to higher prices. The bad thing is that when gas goes down, the cost of items doesn’t. National gas prices are now at $3.45 for 87 octane, and Utah and California have the highest prices for gas. So, look for gas to go up again, and keep your tank topped off.

Time flies, but remember, you are the pilot.

Permit Fraud: Our once-in-a-lifetime hunts have a very limited number of permits.

When someone lies and obtains one of those permits through fraud, they are robbing someone else of that hunting opportunity. As the name of those hunts implies, many hunters wait their entire lives to have that opportunity, and it is really frustrating to see that limited permit go to someone who obtained it unethically and illegally. It can be difficult to discover fraud cases, and we rely heavily on tips and other information from the public to investigate these incidents.

—Capt. Wade Hovinga, DWR Statewide Investigations Permit Fraud

Cont'd from page 1

residents.

Some of these license fraud cases also include Utahns claiming to be nonresidents in order to obtain bonus points for all of the wildlife species (something only available to nonresidents), so they can increase their odds of drawing permits in the future. However, it is more common for DWR investigators to see nonresidents pretending to be Utahns in an effort to illegally obtain a specific hunting permit. The charges for these cases range from a class B misdemeanor to a third-degree felony.

“Any license that is obtained through fraud, deceit or misrepresentation is not valid,” DWR Statewide Investigations Capt. Wade Hovinga said. “With each hunting permit drawing, our investigators review the applicants’ data to detect any potential fraud. Our officers have also detected fraud by encountering a hunter in the field and discovering that the individual purchased

a Utah hunting license because they have a second home or a cabin in Utah, which doesn’t qualify them as a Utah resident.”

Here are a few examples of recent cases DWR officers investigated: • In 2017, DWR investigators discovered a Utahn had been using their grandfather’s identity to apply for hunting permits and bonus points for two years. The individual was not successful in drawing a permit, but had obtained bonus points to increase their chances of obtaining a permit. The individual was charged with a class B misdemeanor and a third-degree felony for identity fraud.

• In 2019, DWR conservation officers discovered a St. George resident had been claiming to be an Arizona resident for eight years to obtain bonus points for all species.

• In 2019, a South Carolina resident illegally purchased a Utah resident hunting license and drew a premium limited-entry buck deer permit for the Henry Mountains, a hunting unit notorious for having large, world-class mule deer. The individual harvested a tro-

phy mule deer buck with the illegally obtained permit.

DWR investigators detected the fraud after seeing the out-of-state address associated with the permit, and the individual was charged with a third-degree felony and ordered to pay $8,000 in restitution. The mule deer was seized from a residence in Wisconsin.

• In 2020, a California resident illegally obtained a Utah resident permit and harvested a bighorn sheep in Millard County. The individual had applied for this particular permit as a Utah resident for several years, fraudulently obtaining bonus points until successfully drawing the permit. DWR investigators received a tip about the fraudulent permit, which resulted in the successful prosecution of the individual. The individual was charged with a thirddegree felony and ordered to pay $25,000 in restitution. The bighorn sheep was seized from a residence in California.

• In 2021, a Florida resident who had moved to Florida from Utah still applied in the hunt drawing as a Utah resident and illegally obtained a Rocky Mountain

bighorn sheep permit.

DWR investigators discovered the individual was living in Florida at the time of applying for the permit and contacted the individual prior to the hunt to inform them their permit was invalid because it was obtained through fraud. The individual surrendered their permit and was charged with a class B misdemeanor.

“Our once-in-a-lifetime hunts have a very limited number of permits. When someone lies and obtains one of those permits through fraud, they are robbing someone else of that hunting opportunity,” Hovinga said. “As the name of those hunts implies, many hunters wait their entire lives to have that opportunity, and it is really frustrating to see that limited permit go to someone who obtained it unethically and illegally. It can be difficult to discover fraud cases, and we rely heavily on tips and other information from the public to investigate these incidents.”

If you have information about any wildlife-related crimes in Utah, you should report it to DWR conservation officers in one of the following ways: • Calling the UTiP Hotline at 800-662-3337 • Using the UTDWR Law Enforcement app • Texting 847411 • Submitting a tip online through the DWR website Rewards are available (both monetary and reward permits), and officers will respect requests for confidentiality.

by John Mosley The Sky Report is presented as a public service by the Stellar Vista Observatory, a nonprofit organization based in Kanab, Utah, which provides opportunities for people to observe, appreciate, and comprehend our starry night sky. Additional information is at www.stellarvistaobservatory.org. Send questions and comments to John@StargazingAdventures.org.

Once again, the moon is near the planet Uranus. On the evening of the 6th, the distant planet is 2½° (5 moondiameters) straight above the crescent moon, and you can see both together in binoculars.

The other planets are in the morning sky. Venus is brilliant, low in the southeast before sunrise, far brighter than anything in the sky except the sun and moon.

Almost 5° below Venus, at the 5 o’clock position, is Mars. Mars is only 1/100th as bright, and that’s because it’s on the far side of the sun almost 200 million miles from earth. It’ll be a fraction that distance and brighter than the brightest stars when we it is closest to earth in December.

Saturn and Mercury are separated by a scant 2/3° and would be visible together in a low-power telescope if they weren’t so near the horizon that it will be nearly impossible to see them.

Jupiter is behind the sun on the 5th when it technically moves into the morning sky.

If you have a truly dark sky, where you can see the Milky Way, look for something unusual that very few people have ever seen—the zodiacal light. It’s at its best the next few weeks. The zodiacal light is a faint diffuse triangular glow rising up from the western horizon that rivals the Milky Way in brightness.

It’s about 25° wide at its base and narrow up high where it fades away. The glow is sunlight scattered forward by countless microscopic particles of interplanetary dust, typically the size of smoke

This time of year, it’s visible in the evening; in autumn, it’s visible in the morning; both are when the ecliptic (the path of the planets) makes a steep angle with the horizon and the zodiacal light sticks relatively straight up. Most of these particles are dust shed by comets while some come from collisions of asteroids, and one study published just last March suggests that some come from Mars, although, it’s not known how they would get from Mars, or one of its moons, into the into interplanetary space. If you can see the

Milky Way, you should see the zodiacal light. Avoid moonlit nights.

Queen guitarist Brian May’s PhD thesis in astrophysics was on motions in the zodiacal light.

“We go every year at this time because it’s legislative time. Policy work is a big part of prevention and coalition work so that people from across the country—youth and adults—can meet with representatives and go to conference and learn what others are doing in their communities,” said Veater. During the CADCA conference, Veater did her own presentation on how the Panguitch Prevention Coalition has reduced underage drinking rates and increased family bonding over the ten years of their program. The Panguitch Prevention Coalition—the first in the county—was started in 2010.

During the weeklong trip from January 30 through February 5, 2022, the nine students and sixteen adult coalition members and chaperones, including two local mayors and a county commissioner, attended the two day CADCA conference held in National Harbor, Maryland.

The rest of the week was spent on a breakneck itinerary that included visits with policy makers in Congress, and seeing important national historic sites, monuments and museums.

For three students it was even their first time on an airplane, including for Escalante High School sophomore Ryen Treanor, who described the trip as, “A life changing opportunity.”

“I always think of the big schools going to do things like this, that we’d never get to go because we’re so teeny tiny.

It was a lifetime experience,”
