Prison Relocation Are Counties up to handling class 1 and 2 inmates? Additional

This week on the County Seat Chad Booth looks at the relationship between County Jails and the State Prison and what comes next now that the prison in Draper is being moved.

Did you know that almost every county in Utah has it’s own county jail?

Did you know that a number of counties contract with the state to house state inmates in county facilities?

Tune into the discussion this Sunday at 8:30am to find out more on ABC4UTAH

Wild Horse Management on Private and Public Lands Challenges and the Wild Horse and Burro Act

Highlights:

:50 Wild Horse and Burro Story

5:52 Discussion with Gus Warr, BLM Utah

17:08 Discussion with Mark Ward, UAC and J.R. Nelson, Emery County Commissioner

26:53 Final Thoughts

The Wild Horse is an icon of the American West. As such they were protected under the Horse and Burro Act in 1971. 43 years later that very protection may be one of the biggest threats to Wild Horses.

This week the program looks at the Wild Horse program administered by the BLM and the challenges that land managers face following rules, regulations and laws that have been put in place to protect Wild Horses. We also met with County representatives who are frustrated by the issues created by the overpopulation of Wild Horse herds. The issues on the ground affect a number of users of both Public and Private Lands.

Tune into the program this Sunday at 8:30 am on ABC4UTAH to see the discussion. Or look it up on our You Tube Channel: (May not be uploaded until Sunday Morning)

Wild Horse and Burros on Public Lands

There are some great local officials serving you.

Post by Ben McAdams.

One of the most surprising things I have learned during my 4 years producing The County Seat is how approachable county officials are. I’ve met some great people. It’s fun to see that we really are all just people. Even people who are elected. Enjoy. -Derek Dowsett
