.................................................. .................................................. .
A contractor from American Fork Ut has volunteered his time and equipment to clear out boats and other debris at Glen Canyon National Recreation area.But boat owners , if they can be found will get no free mooring. Each of the boats, sunk over the past 40 years will be searched for identification and the owners will be billed for the removal costs. The boats and trash to be removed lies just along the shore, as the water is expected to recede to the lowest point of the year. Future operations could include trash removal deeper into the lake according to an acting assistant of the Park Svc. "There could be all kinds of stuff out there" she said ..... Duh Ya Think?

It doesn't surprise me. One more way for the Government or state to milk us out of our last dollor.
And one hell of a contract for this Co. from Utah. I wonder what they did to get this contract or blow? :confused:
