When I hear the word Oilers, I think of Warren Moon and the Houston Oilers. Or the Edmonton Oilers, with Mark Messier, Jari Kurri, and Wayne Gretsky (but not Paulina Gretsky.) But this is another kind of oiler altogther, the upgraded Qiandaohu-class oilers, known as Type 903s:
The Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy now has an aircraft carrier, new jet fighters to fly off the flattop and even new submarines and guided-missile destroyers able to protect the refurbished Soviet carrier. And with the successful first sea trials of two new, 590-foot-long fleet oilers — tanker ships designed to keep other vessels fueled, or "replenished," while sailing long distance — the PLAN could soon be able to deploy all this new hardware beyond coastal waters.
"Replenishment vessel construction rate will be a particularly revealing barometer of the PLAN's future expeditionary intentions," wrote Andrew Erickson, an analyst at the U.S. Naval War College. The more new oilers, the farther China will be able to send its new capital ships. Without underway replenishment, most naval vessels can travel only a few thousand miles; with fuel top-offs, they can circle the globe.
The latest, upgraded Qiandaohu-class oilers, also known as Type 903s, were launched at a shipyards in Guangzhou and Shanghai last spring. After additional work, the tankers began sea trials in the China Seas, testing out the vessels' mechanical systems plus the storage tanks, valves, hoses and other gear for refueling other ships at sea. This week the first of the new Qiandaohus reportedly completed her trials, clearing her for frontline use.
When it comes to prepping new naval vessels for service, nine months is not a long time. Many U.S. vessels take years to go from launch through trials to commissioning. One U.S.-based Chinese military analyst, who blogs under the pseudonym "Coatepeque," calls the oilers' speedy trials "impressive."
Impressive? Maybe. . .

Had the New York Rangers fallen to Phoenix last night at Madison Square Garden, the main story would be the ill-advised (no pun intended) decision of Head Coach Alaine Vigneault to play a visibly incapable Martin St. Louis and Derek Stepan.
Instead, today's headlines read of another third period comeback that resulted in a critical two-point OT victory for New York in an ever-tightening Eastern Conference playoff race.
In the past 10 games, the Rangers are 7-3-0 and winners of four straight going into the most anticipated game of the season Wednesday against the rival Philadelphia Flyers.
While steadfast goaltending by franchise-best Henrik Lundqvist has assuredly been the catalyst in this late-season surge, the Rangers ability to fight thru adversity and prevail late in games has led this victory run.
Three non-King related keys to this late season push:

World Class Equipment Company is a Macomb, Michigan manufacturer of conveyors, robotic work cells, custom automation, robotic end-of-arm-tooling, automatic and manual assembly stations, fully automated weld cells, fixtures and more. The company was formed in 2012 by co-owners Mark Matheson, President, and Jeffrey Hinsperger, Vice President in order to meet the demands of turnkey automation solutions. With over 20 years of experience, World Class Equipment Company is a one stop shop for fully automated systems in the automotive, oil & gas, transportation and aerospace industries.
In 2014, Matheson and Hinsperger were strategizing how to finance export sales worth $2,500,000 from companies in Brazil, China, and Mexico. That's when they were approached by Kyle Anne Sasena, an international product specialist and loan officer at Level One Bank. The community-based financial institution was a relatively new player in the world of small business finance, but it had a seasoned staff of small business bankers who knew the value of the SBA loan guaranty program.
Sasena reviewed the owners' request and knew that the deal would work if she structured it with an SBA export working capital line of credit. She called in SBA Regional Manager John O'Gara to help with the project. O'Gara is a trade finance specialist who has worked on numerous export transactions during his career at the SBA's U.S. Export Assistance Center. O'Gara conducted a site visit to World Class Equipment Company to meet with the owners and discuss their deal.
The partnership among the business owners, the lender, and the SBA resulted in a $1 million revolving line of credit, guaranteed 90% by the SBA, to support pre-shipment working capital needs. Level One was extremely pleased with the support and knowledge that O'Gara provided and Matheson and Hinsperger successfully completed the export transactions. They look forward to growing their company by increasing their international business.

I made this recipe as an Easter dessert. Everyone loved it. I drizzled raspberry preserves over the top and added some fresh raspberries and blackberries. It was so good. Recipe is a keeper - I will be making this again.
I have made many different recipes but none better than this one. My son loves cheesecake and anything lemon so when I found this recipe online I gave it a try for his birthday and was not disappointed. Even though the batter was thick it baked up very smooth, creamy and not dense as I thought it might.I changed the sugar in the crust to cinnamon and sugar and added ground walnuts. I was pleased with the end result. If you like cheesecake with a hint of lemon and many recipes call for either lemon juice or zest anyway, you will certainly enjoy this recipe.

Lake Vida, in one of Antarctica's dry valleys, was once thought to be frozen solid. In 1995, researchers discovered the lake wasn't completely ice -- inside an almost 20-meter-thick ice layer lay veins of super-salty water, sealed off from the rest of the world. Writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Alison Murray and colleagues describe a community of bacteria that survive in the dark, salty, sub-freezing waters of the lake.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – University of Louisville men's basketball senior Mike Marra reinjured his left knee in the early moments of a practice session on Friday afternoon and is likely out for the 2012-13 season.
"Mike was just pivoting, trying to make a pass early in practice and went down," said U of L head coach Rick Pitino. "It's an unfortunate thing that happened in the game. Mike took it very well and said it just wasn't meant to be. He handled it very professionally. Mike wants to be a coach, and this allows him to pursue coaching a year ahead of schedule. We'll miss him, but we want have a deep basketball team."
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test is scheduled for Saturday morning to determine the extent of the injury, but the initial assessment points to a torn anterior cruciate ligament. He tore the same ACL last Nov. 17 against Lamar, the second game of the 2011-12 season, had reconstructive surgery on Nov. 29 and had been on the long road of rehabilitation since then.
A 6-foot-5 guard from Smithfield, R.I., Marra scored six points in each of Louisville's first two games last year. He averaged 6.2 points and two assists, while burying 45 3-point goals as a sophomore in 2010-11, starting 11 games.

Best Uses
Bought the poison ivy soap for my wife who will develop a reaction to plant irritants if she walks within 20 feet of a plant on a windy day. She says this works great for any skin irritation.
Best Uses
My husband manages to get into a patch of poison ivy every year. We got this product years ago when he got into it on a visit out west. The one bar lasted 3 years. You can't beat that.
Best Uses
About a month after I purchased this I got poison Ivy . I tried this soap and what a surprise. No itching!. I was and am still amazed. I previously had used vinegar and Calomine (sp) lotion but still itched.
Buy this if you are prone to getting poison ivy
Best Uses
Wish we would of know about this product sooner. It is very good
in helping to relieve the itch of the poison ivy and it helps to dry the
effective area. No complaints from us.
Best Uses
I use this soap on my hands for ezcema. It's definitely easier on my skin than typical hand soap. I have trouble with my skin drying out and cracking, so this soap helps not to dry my skin out as much. I haven't used it for poison ivy/oak. I hope I never get the chance to use it for that purpose.

Your WhoWhatWear.com editors are a little bitter toward the heat wave that's transpiring in Southern California (it's mid-January and in the eighties!), so we're thinking cool thoughts and dedicating this story to our readers who reside in more chilly locales. Besides, it's only a matter of time before the region's bipolar weather causes the thermometer to drop back down for us, too. That being said, we thought it best to provide everyone with some fresh ideas for wearing winter clothes (with the help of a few trusted style muses, of course)!
There's something about cold weather that evokes happy-go-lucky sentiments in us all, as it brings lots of lovely activities to mind: sipping hot chocolate, relaxing by the fireplace, even just watching a glistening snow fall! A less-picturesque aspect of wintry climates is the sight of oneself in the mirror, looking like a marshmallow on account of improperly-styled winter apparel. This situation, along with a few other seasonal-related fashion dilemmas (over-accessorizing, bland color combos) are common pitfalls to fall into around this time of year, because the colder the weather gets, the trickier it is to stay chic.
However, all is not lost, dear readers! Take for instance, the snug outfit Kate Hudson wore on a coffee run in New York City earlier this month. She stayed quite stylish by layering a Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent Belted Boho Cardi ($328, 310.385.0557) over a chunky neutral turtleneck, pale leggings, and Loeffler Randall boots. Hudson earned fashion kudos, thanks her sweater's funky seventies vibe and tan footwear selection (in lieu of predictable black boots). Chloe Sevigny also opted for unexpected shoes for her cold weather ensemble. While running errands in Soho, the Big Love actress wore some heeled red Dr. Martens Boots ($110) that accentuated her vintage red beanie (try Capelli's New York Chunky Knit Beanie ($11) as an alternative) and oversized, toggle-embellished leather coat. When choosing winter outerwear, it's important to pick something with deep pockets (like Sevigny's) to keep your hands warm!
Since we can always count on Agyness Deyn to charm us with her innovative getups, we turned to her, once again, for guidance today! The bona-fide supermodel reminded us how fabulous uncommon fabrics can be by wearing a large corduroy jacket while walking her dog in NYC a few weeks ago. Deyn made her outfit even more interesting by sporting some bright red jeans (perhaps recycled from last spring's colored denim craze?), patent lace-up boots, and a cossack-style hat. If you are looking for a more classic look,, consider the cozy and chic outfit that we spotted on Blake Lively. While filming earlier this month, the Gossip Girl looked dapper in a slate blue Alberta Ferretti Coat ($3635, 212.632.9300), JBrand Skinny Jeans ($160), Delman Giddyup Boots ($290), and Bryna Nicole Loyola Satchel ($320).
Our final inspiration today is courtesy of the au courant getup that Kirsten Dunst recently displayed in Soho. Dunst mixed patterns to an alluring degree by wearing her checkered Opening Ceremony All-Occasion Cardigan ($300, 310.652.1120) with a floral printed skirt. While black tights will never go out of style, it's refreshing to see Dunst keep her legs warm with a gray pair. We can also learn from her preference for an across-body bag, because it leaves your hands free to be cozily-tucked in your pockets!-Jessica Amento

Earlier this week a detailed report of prisoner abuses in overseas CIA prisons was released. The report provides new information about the nature of the abuses inflicted on prisoners which included threatening to kill or sexually assault detainee's family members, the use of guns or tools for intimidation, and even staged mock executions. Although some of the methods were not authorized by the Justice Department, the report claims that the methods used in interrogations yielded significant information that could be used to prevent future terrorist activity.
The moral implications of these reports is staggering, and it seems that in response some have begun to subtype the acts mentioned above in an effort to reduce the negative associations with the integrity, honesty, moral fortitude many would like to believe America represents. Journalists, military personnel, and academics have distinguished between torture, which is "violent, physically mutilating, cruel, and brutal," and torture lite, or "interrogation methods that are more restrained and less severe" (Wolfendale, 2009). Wolfendale (2009) claims that using terms like torture lite minimizes the suffering of victims as well as the responsibility of torturers and additionally can lead to the normalization of torture in our culture. Sectioning out some forms of torture may make us feel better and allow us to retain our former representation of our country as a positive, strong, and moral force but in the end it stunts our ability to give the issue its full importance, take responsibility for our actions, and have a real debate about whether we as a country condone torture as a reasonable means for interrogation.

A broadband catapult for America
Power. Clean water. The Interstate highway system. It's easy to forget that the advantages of modern American life result from basic infrastructure investments made by earlier generations.
Tomorrow the FCC will release a national broadband strategy. The plan will set goals for expanding broadband to unserved and under-served areas, promote greater speeds, and drive consumer demand. It will harness this communications technology to urgent national priorities, such as jobs, education, health, energy, and security. In short, the plan will lay the groundwork for investing in America's future.
Yes, the Internet was invented in the United States. Yes, we once led the world in broadband development. But now, networks in many countries, from Western Europe to East Asia, are faster and more advanced than our own. Long after we recover from this recession, this broadband gap will be a dead weight on American businesses and workers, unless we act now.
As with the space race in the 1960s, America needs a national effort by our scientists, engineers, companies, educational institutions and government agencies. Just like that great national adventure, we need near-term and long-term goals.
Broadband is an essential input to expanding business, education, and healthcare opportunities everywhere. As soon as possible, we need to bring Internet access to every community, from rural America to the inner cities.
But we also need even more ambitious objectives -- or "stretch goals" -- that test the limits of our ingenuity. When President John F. Kennedy summoned the nation to space exploration, the immediate goal was to send an astronaut in orbit around the earth. But JFK called for "putting a man on the moon" because he knew that dream would inspire Americans to literally reach for the stars.
The private sector has a big job to do, and needs to carry much of the investment. For our part, we plan to build and test an ultra-high-speed broadband network in at least one U.S. community. We are excited by the amount of support our proposed testbed has received from local communities and individuals.
But smart, tailored public policies are critical too. Let's install broadband fiber as part of every federally-funded infrastructure project, from highways to mass transit. And let's deploy broadband fiber to every library, school, community health center, and public housing facility in the U.S.
I support a national broadband strategy because ubiquitous broadband connectivity can catapult America into the next level of economic competitiveness, worker productivity, and educational opportunity. But as in the past, we will make this breakthrough by choice, not chance.

Perhaps this is the first communication of the company reflecting US AND THEM respect other countries in a competitive way. I'm sure about the "Don't be Evil" slogan but ...ReplyDelete
Thanks for your attention and sorry for my English from Spain.
This isn't really us vs. them. Google is a US based company, investment in the US broadband infrastructure is of direct benefit to both the efficiency of their operations, and their ability to connect with a large number of their costumers. The fact that the US is behind other countries is stated only as a way to inspire US readers to contact their representatives and insure a updated broadband is realized.ReplyDelete
Google makes a bigger effort than any other company I can think of to engage other countries, cultures, or languages. Too bad their wireless robot warriors will one day take over every country. GGG; Google Global Government.ReplyDelete
We have consistently underestimated the role that increased information can play in technology advancement. But faster information does not equate to a better society. For example, can and should your children progress at different speeds than their classmates? Not in today's educational system. There's more to change than the availability - it's the use of information. Less Farmville, more biology. Can you fix that, Google?ReplyDelete
I think its about time! I look forward to the day when its not just the President who works from home but all federal employees who choose to do so. In order for that to happen, there needs to be hyper fast networks and hopefully, this initiative will achieve that.ReplyDelete
My office look forward to working with the wonderful "conversion" opportunity of the four-part mega opportunity: President Obama's ARRA-American Reinvestment and Recovery Act +U.S. Department of Education Technology Plan 2010 + FCC/Federal Communication Commission Broadband Plan and Google's test-bed opportunities.
Needless to say, I will provide a pitch for Milwaukee. However, based on recent experience I hastily caution Google to watch for "hype-rhetoric-spin" and demand transparency, customer care, best practices, accountability; and, most of all, INCLUSIVENESS of the People, especially People of Color, the Work-Challenged and families caught-up in Concentrated Poverty areas.
Be sure to demand that planning, design, implementation, development and the BUY-In is from the very START. Anything less, is a cruel joke on the People and guaranteed results that will be far less than your goal.
We can do so much to close the "widening" broadband gap - wireless, high speed, access, literacy, fluency, employment gap -to really make America more infrastructural and systemically sound in its core quality of life issues, economic development issues, environmental issues and global competitiveness.
We can in short-order begin to raise the level of sustainability in the towns, villages, small cities and large urban cities by including neighborhood-level stakeholders/talents (child-youth-adult-senior) who have been traditionally and consistently left out of the success formula.
This will help raise our global status/ranking from #20 to par and better than #1 South Korea.
Now is the time, but it cannot be at the 30,000 feet level, it must be "ground-level" - "neighborhood-level", "End-User Level", "business owners/entrepreneurs at the neighborhood-level, "family-level", "student level", "senior-level" tied to the health provider-level, government level, etc.

Motorola PHOTON Q 4G will be sticking with Jelly Bean
The Motorola PHOTON Q 4G LTE is far from the newest Android handset. But perhaps a bit more important today -- Motorola has decided the fate of the handset in terms of software updates. And in a bit of disappointing news for those carrying a PHOTON Q 4G LTE -- you will be sticking with Jelly Bean.

LOWVILLE Visitors to Lewis County General Hospitals emergency department wont see an immediate change, despite a switch in physician groups.
Nearly all of the emergency room doctors have decided to remain at the facility, at least for the time being, and work under the auspices of NES Healthcare Physicians Group, according to a release from the county-owned hospital.
We are committed to providing a highly qualified physician team to serve the patients who come to Lewis County General Hospital emergency department for care, hospital CEO Eric R. Burch said in a statement.
Drs. Daniel R. Cappon, Robert M. Harryman and Jon R. Hager, all members of the former North Country Physicians, as well as former hospital-employed ER doctors Todd Howland and Christopher Black, are continuing to work at the facility under NES, which took over staffing of the department Jan. 1, according to the release.
A fourth member of North Country Physicians, Dr. Sean P. Harney, decided to retire.
NES Healthcare Group, which was founded in 1975, is expected to hire additional physicians to ensure full-time emergency coverage is maintained, the release said.
NES plans to continue to maintain the collaborative relationships with local fire and ambulance services and is also committed to reducing patient wait times and enhancing the overall patient satisfaction, group spokesman Morrie Maple said in a statement.
The emergency department, which averages 12,000 patient visits per year, looks forward to continued growth while serving you and your health care needs into the future, the hospital release states.
Officials at the hospital last year initially sought to add a hospitalist service providing doctors to handle after-hour admissions and inpatient care in conjunction with emergency room physicians, and sent requests for proposals in late July for a group that could handle both duties.
In response, North Country Physicians, which for years had contracted with the hospital for emergency department physician services, submitted its resignation, indicating the group was opposed to the idea of combined coverage and would not have the resources to provide the services requested.
Hospital officials ultimately decided to contract separately with Rural Physicians Group for the hospitalist service, which started Monday, and NES for emergency department physicians.

The unlocked Samsung (Infuse i997) has been a very popular device since it was first announced at the consumer electronics show in January. The device is received a lot of attention from various sources and continues to be a very popular phone for users to unlock. There are a number of benefits are provided to the phone when you unlock it. Some of the benefits that have forced me to unlock the phone after purchasing it include the following;
First of all, the ability for you to utilize apps that you would not normally have access to at the device is definitely something that many users would be interested in. There are many different apps out there that you could potentially use with the device, that are not available when you do not have it unlocked.
Also, the ability to use the device with various carriers would be something that many users would be interested in, that would not be available much to unlock the phone. It is definitely something that I think many users would enjoy, as the carrier that the device is released for is not always the carrier that they would like to use the phone with. This is been one of the bigger reasons why many users choose to unlock their phone when they are using it.
Overall this Samsung Infuse i997 has been a very solid released thus far. The phone has continued to impress, and using this Samsung Infuse i997 unlocked as been a very popular choice for many users. It provides a number of benefits that normally would not be there for the device, and desolate expanse of functionality for the device as a whole. As unlocking has grown more popular over the course of the last few years devices such of the Samsung unlocked Infuse i997 have become more commonly unlocked by users.

New Sportsters... Good, eh?
I never much liked the tooth-loosening vibration, wonky handling and dubious reliability of the iron heads, I had British bikes for that.
Now I'm getting to where I could have had a shovel as my semi-retirement toy, I've settled on 45s instead.... And I think if I was walking into a Harley dealer now for a new bike, I'd be looking at the Sporties, with a decent size tank, comfy seat and panniers. What do others think?

Population shifts noted in the last census will result in the city of Ogdensburg being represented by two St. Lawrence County legislators rather than three and Canton having three representatives rather than two.
How the districts will be created will be the subject of a public hearing at 5 p.m. May 21 as county legislators consider two competing plans.
The changes are caused mostly by a state decision that prison inmates cannot be counted as local residents, which creates population losses in Ogdensburg, home to Riverview Correctional Facility and Ogdensburg Correctional Facility, and in Gouverneur, which has Gouverneur Correctional Facility. At the same time, census workers did a better job at counting the Amish and college students.
What that did, it pushed the numbers more toward the center of the county than along the edges, said Legislator Vernon D. Sam Burns, D-Ogdensburg, chairman of the county committee that came up with the redistricting plans. Theres only so many areas you can subdivide.
Committee members tried to form a plan of 15 districts, each with an average population of 7,200 people and a deviation rate that ranges about 12 percent, less than the 16 percent maximum suggested by the state.
Mr. Burns and Legislator Frederick S. Morrill, D-DeKalb Junction, worked together on a plan that keeps most of the districts essentially the same, especially on the countys east side, but adds DePeyster to District 5, which is represented by Legislator Donald A. Peck, R-Gouverneur, and shifts District 3, that of Legislator Joseph R. Lightfoot, R-Ogdensburg, out of the city and into Rensselaer Falls and a western portion of the town of Canton.
That did not sit well with Mr. Lightfoot, also a member of the redistricting committee, who thought it made more sense for his district, which includes Morristown and Oswegatchie, to encompass the town of Hammond rather than part of the town of Canton.
Mr. Lightfoot came up with more than a half dozen scenarios, settling on what he considered the best of his alternatives for the committee to present to the full board along with the one created by Mr. Burns and Mr. Morrill.
Mr. Lightfoot said that Hammond and Morristown have more in common as St. Lawrence River communities than Morristown and Canton, and that his district is contiguous with the town of Canton by only a short distance. Mr. Lightfoots plan gives him the town of Hammond and puts the towns of Clifton and Fine in District 4, represented by Alex A. MacKinnon, R-Fowler, instead of in District 6, which is Mr. Morrills.
Mr. Lightfoot said his plan corrects a hodgepodge of towns that are largely rural with relatively small numbers of people that were lumped together without much reason in previous redistricting.
I think its ill-conceived to put District 3 in the town of Canton. It isnt the right way of doing it, Mr. Lightfoot said. What we should be worried about is how it affects the taxpayer.
Canton Supervisor David T. Button said he had not seen either plan yet but worried that despite Cantons population growth, its political influence was being diluted by being split up three ways so that two of its divisions are absorbed as smaller parts of larger districts and its viewpoint is in the minority.
Legislator Mark H. Akins, R-Lisbon, whose District 2 does not change, said he thought Mr. Lightfoots plan made more sense in the way it consolidated districts but either plan was viable.
Mr. Morrill said the plan developed by him and Mr. Burns leaves well enough alone while addressing changes in Ogdensburg and Gouverneur.
I dont think we need to fix whats working, Mr. Morrill said. The main change is because of the inmates. The towns Alex and I represent werent affected. One of our goals was not to make any more changes than we needed to.
Mr. Peck said he is comfortable with his district ending up with either the town of DePeyster or the town of Macomb, depending on which plan is approved.
Mr. Lightfoot did not think giving Mr. Pecks district DePeyster made sense because its border with Gouverneur is barely a pinprick on the map.
Mr. MacKinnon said he opposes Mr. Lightfoots plan because its changes are too sweeping and it splits up districts without good rationale.
I see no reason to break that up because Joe does not want to have a small section of Canton, he said.
Redistricting is not supposed to cater to sitting representatives but Mr. MacKinnon said taking the towns of Clifton and Fine from Mr. Morrills district would not serve them well because of the work he has done to help bring economic development to the area.
Its a reality, he said. To Freds credit, were now on the cusp of getting something done. He knows all the players.
Mr. MacKinnon said he hoped the board would make a decision quickly to coincide with the county Board of Elections consolidation of 102 election districts to 81 as a cost-saving measure.
Having a redistricting plan in place quickly would make it easier for county committee members who will start circulating petitions in June so they know where the lines are, Board of Elections Democratic Commissioner Jennie H. Bacon said.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate Reporter
Relief is in sight for Highway 6 drivers between Price and Green River. The Utah Department of Transportation has told the Carbon County Commission that it plans to put a rest stop and view area at the Horse Canyon Road turnoff at mile post 267.
UDOT engineer Daryl Friant told commissioners Wednesday that the project is planned for 2011. To make it feasible, however, Carbon and Emery counties will have to pay their share of the $12,000 annual maintenance expense. That would be $3,000 per county, with UDOT picking up the rest.
The concept sounded good to Commissioner Mike Milovich, who agreed with Friant that travelers are using bushes for pit stops now anyway. But the commissioner was not ready to commit the county to an agreement without hearing more. "What's the term, infinity?" he asked. He also was concerned about clearly defining which of the two counties would be responsible for public safety response. The quickest police or ambulance response would clearly have to come from Carbon County, the nearest population center, and he had no problem with that. However, he wanted the details written up in a memorandum of understanding so all parties would know in advance who will be responsible for what, for how long, and for how much.
County Tourism Director Kathy Smith said the rest stop would be ideal for advertising what Carbon County has to offer travelers and tourists. A kiosk would cost a few thousand dollars, exactly how much would depend on how fancy it would be. And when commissioners noted that the expense would come out of her budget, she agreed.
The rest stop and view area would be standard loop design and able to handle all sizes of vehicles. Restrooms would be vault toilets, flushable.
UDOT would handle maintenance such as daily cleaning, adding water to vaults and pumping vaults as needed, garbage collection, snow removal and pavement.
The rest stop would be a great benefit to motorists who have to traverse the long ride from I-70 to Wellington without any kinds of formal stopping places for rest or for facilities.
