ITEM 1 - REVIEW OF MINUTES
The minutes of the May 4 meeting were reviewed.
ITEM 2 - DISCUSSION OF THE EXISTING CONDITIONS PORTION OF
THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Margaret Johnson led the discussion of the socio-economic
technical memorandum. Margaret distributed an updated draft
of the memorandum which addressed the written comments received from Steve Flint. Jack Spence had a number of additional comments which were discussed. One of the primary
items to come out of the discussion was the need to provide
information on driving times, using alternate routes, from
various locations on the Wasatch Front to Bear Lake. This
is not information that is generally available. It was
suggested that the "Friend~ of Bear Lake" a property owners
association with many members in Weber, Davis, and Salt Lake
Counties be contacted to see if they could provide some
information. The Friends of Bear Lake may also be able to
provide information on the number of recreational homes in
the area which are owned by people along the Wasatch Front.
ITEM 3 - REVIEW OF THE TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM ADDRESSING NOISE
John Neil led the discussion.
The memorandum focused primarily on picnic and camping areas. John indicated that the
only problem area would be at China Rowand that it would be
impossible to mitigate above 40 mph because the picnic area

After reading local newspaper reports of the 1987 Logan Canyon Highway
scoping meetings, I noticed assumptions were made on the part of some groups that
the majority of local residents were opposed to any extensive modifications to the
highway.
In talking with a number of Logan City residents, I received conflicting
reports and strong indications that many Logan City voters did not agree with those
assumptions and that the scoping meetings were not a true barometer of local feelings.
In fact, some felt that the scoping meetings reflected a stacked deck in favor of the
opposing viewpoint.
At the urging of a number of local residents, I decided to find
out for myself by conducting a telephone opinion survey of Logan City voters who
voted in the 1987 elections.
draft of the
ques~ionnaire
Although it wasn't intended to be mailed out, the first
was sent by Cache County Chamber of Commerce leaders to
chamber members and returns were tabulated and results presented to that organization.
After the questionnaire was criticized by the local newspaper(particularly one writer)
as being biased, I contacted a former Utah State University Sociology Professor, Dr.
William DeHart, who had considerable experience with survey questions and format, to
review the questionnaire and assist me in eliminating or reducing possible bias.
I
spent a number of sessions with him in fine tuning the questionnaire before I conducted
the telephone opinion survey.
I also discussed the questionnaire with Dr. Steven
Daniels, formerly of the Department of Forestry at USU, who offered some valuable
suggestions.
It seemed ironic to me that the local newspaper should accuse me of
bias when they, themselves are guilty of incredible one-sided, biased reporting on
the highway issue.
I guess one should always first identify the color of the snake
in the grass before striding too far.
After obtaining a list of Logan City residents
who voted in the 1987 elections, I randomly sampled 208 voters by personally
telephoning them and asking the survey questions.
I chose to personally telephone
participants to reduce bias and to ensure consistency.
I did not solicit any
additional responses although many expressed appreciation for the contact and offered
additional opinions.
Of those who offered additional opinions, I asked if they had
attended any of the Logan Canyon Highway scoping meetings.
affirmative.
Their reasons for not attending ranged from "I don't like to argue"
to "a lack of time" or "conflict in schedule".
would listen anyway".

Not one answered in the
Some were concerned that "no one
I consider this a clear example of "the silent majority
In retrospect, they have only themselves to blame if the opposing
viewpoint receives credibility.
My feeling is that this group of people does not
write letters to the editor, tends to avoid controversy and does not like to attend
meetings, yet many have strong opinions about important issues and appear to exercise
their voting privilege.
Perhaps that's why politicians who consistently campaign
door-to-door and contact this group of people tend to get elected.
�-2Some of the more often expressed comments included:
*
I would like to see the road widened to include shoulders so that a vehicle
could be stopped completely off the road in the event of an emergency(flat tire,
stalled vehicle, etc.). This is especially a problem in the middle section of the
canyon between Right Hand Fork and Ricks Springs where shoulders are extremely
narrow or nonexistent. To increase enforcement of the current speed limit would
create a safety hazard unless shoulders were widened to permit a vehicle to stop
completely off the road.
*
Straightening some curves in the middle section of the canyon would not necessarily
increase speed but would contribute to a more even speed and flow of traffic.
*
As important as the environment is, there are other issues of equal or greater
importance including highway safety, snow removal, access to recreation areas
(Beaver Mountain, Jackson Hole, Yellowstone Park, Bear Lake, etc.), maximum
utilization of the canyon, emergency vehicle and hospital access for Bear Lake
Valley residents, and economic development potential by providing Bear Lake Valley
residents and beyond better access to local merchants.
*
There have been enough studies of Logan Canyon Highway. The money spent could be
better utilized in making needed modifications. According to UDOT engineers, there
have been two environmental studies of the highway since 1975 modifications were
completed. Approximately $50,000 was funded in 1978 to conduct an environmental
assessment to continue modifications from Right Hand Fork to Ricks Springs. The
current study, started in 1986, is a full environmental impact statement and has
cost approximately $620,000 to this point. Recently, an additional $86,000 was
appropriated to finish the study. More money will have to be allocated to
publish the final document. It's interesting to note that the reconstruction of
a two-lane highway based on 1975 dollars would cost about $500,000/mile and about
$l,OOO,OOO/mile using 1988 dollars. These figures are according to the March 88
issue of Engineering News Record(ENR). According to UDOT, the Summer average daily
traffic(ADT)in the canyon is about 3500 vehicles and peaks at about 500 vehicles
per hour. The Winter ADT is about 1800 vehicles.
*
I'm tired of a few pseudoexperts using strong-arm tactics to impose their will
upon the majority. We have the organization and the structure in-place in the
form of unOT and their consultants to consider all issues including the
environment and highway safety and design. Let's use the existing structure and
rely on the real experts who are being paid out of tax dollars and get out of their
way so they can do their job.
I took the time to examine the background and
expertise of the UDOT personnel assigned to the Logan Canyon Highway project.
Everyone of them have significant training and experience in environmental
planning and highway safety and design.
*
Acceleration and deceleration lanes would be useful at major campgrounds and access
roads such as Spring Hollow, Malibu/Guinavah, Temple Fork, Right Hand Fork, Wood
Camp, etc.
*
All you need to do is drive Logan Canyon and you're immediately brought to the
reality of the hazards and of taking your life in your own hands.
*
Let's fix the highway so it's safe to drive and quit worrying about having to
transplant a few flowers and trees. While a four-lane highway through Logan
Canyon is neither appropriate nor necessary, extensive modifications are needed.
�-3-
*
Although a minority, Cache Valley groups opposed to highway modifications are a
well organized and extremely vocal coalition. They are living proof that the
squeeky wheel gets the grease. But in the same vein, let's not forget that the
empty wagon rattles the most.
I approached the CPA firm of Hancey, Jones and Wright and asked if they would
compile the statistical information for the survey.
They offered to do that as a
public service and are here today to make the presentation to the Municipal Council.
I also contacted Dan Jones who explained that he samples about 6% in his opinion polls
with excellent results.
I sampled about 6% of the population in my opinion survey.
With that report, I'd like to ask Gary Jones and Carl Law of Hancey, Jones and
Wright to give the summary report of the survey.

- LOGAN CANYON
MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING
September 8, 1986
(
Attendance:
Stan Nuffer, CH2M HILL
Cliff Forsgren,CH2M HILL
Duncan Silver, FHWA
Fred LaBar, USFS
Mark Shaw, USFS
Clark Ostergard, USFS
Steve Flint, Audobon Society
Gale Larson, Valley Engineering
John Neil, UDOT
Jim Naegle, UDOT
Lynn Zollinger, UDOT
Bill Helm
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Duncan Silver suggested that the presentation of the roadway
width data could be clearer. It is possible that someone
could interpret it to mean an l8-foot pavement width, which
is not the case.
Item 2 - Draft Traffic Forecast Technical Memorandum
A draft of the safety technical memorandum was distributed
and Cliff Forsgren briefly explained the memorandum. The
fundamental conclusion stated in the memorandum is that
there are accidents occurring in Logan Canyon at a greater
rate than the' average for similar roads in the state, but
that the accidents are not generally serious.
In the memorandum, it is recommended that during the alternative development portion of the study, safety related alternatives be
considered at locations identified.
Lynn Zollinger suggested that the original accident reports
should be reviewed in order to better define the location
and cause of the accidents. Duncan Silver suggested that it
was probably not necessary to go into greater detail except
for specific improvements.
Duncan asked that a day/night breakdown of accidents be included in the memorandum. Bill Helm thought that it would
be helpful to expand Table 6 to include the number of each
type of accident (severity 1 through 5). Duncan also pointed
out that roadway improvements to not often reduce the number
of acci~e~ts, but will reduce the severity.
1
�(
-Steve Flint asked what effect the latest safety improvements
had on the accident rate. Duncan pointed out that since the
safety project had been completed within the past few months,
it -would not be possible to estimate the impact, with any
degree of confidence, for 3 or 4 years. There was some discussion about the chevrons which had been placed to mark one
particularly sharp curve, and whether they had improved the
safety of that curve. No one was certain when the chevrons
were installed so that question could not be answered at
the meeting.
Duncan also suggested that something be said about the number
of accidents which may be occurring during peak traffic periods.
Steve Flint asked for copies of the "quick list".
Cliff will see that he gets copies.
Item 3 - Review of Manual Traffic Counts
The date of the first public information meeting was set for
September 23, 1986. Duncan Silver suggested that we should
take the opportunity at the meeting to ask questions. "
"How
long does it take you to get through the Canyon now?" "How
much faster do you want to get through the Canyon?" "What
are you willing to give up to get through that fast?"
Bill Helm said that it might be helpful if there was an opportunity to discuss the types of improvements that might be
necessary to upgrade the road or eliminate some problems.
The public would then have an idea of what might happen if
some types of improvements were implemented.
The next ID team meeting was scheduled for September 22,
1986 at 3:00 p.m. at the District Office in Ogden.

MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING

Rudy Lukez, Sierra Club
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Cliff Forsgren indicated that there had been some inconsistencies discovered in the accident rate calculations and
that it would be better to hold off on presenting any information to the public until the questions were answered.
(
Item 2 - Traffic Characteristics
Stan Nuffer lead the discussion of the Traffic Characteristics
Technical Memorandum. During the discussion Rudy Lukez questioned the statement about the winter traffic count representing a "background" traffic flow. After some discussion,
Duncan Silver wondered if the issues of background flow was
really relevant to the study. Duncan asked that it be made
clearer in the memorandum which flows were winter, which
were summer and which were annual.
It was concluded in the memorandum that the Design Hourly
Volume (DHV) would be 14 percent of the average daily summer
traffic.
It was also noted that the 14 percent figure tracks
very closely with other recreational roads.
Item 3 - Traffic Capacity
Cliff Forsgren presented the results of the traffic capacity
analysis.
It was pointed out that the primary purpose of
the analysis was to try to describe the conditions that
exist in the Canyon under various traffic volumes. To do
this, a Level of Service approach was used. Levels of
service from A to E were examined. It was determined that
all sections of the road offer a level of service D at the
present time and that by the year 2010 level E would be
1
�experienced in most of the Canyon. Rudy Lukez asked if level
of service D was really undesireable. Cliff indicated that
a desired level of service would need to be established as a
goal and that this had not been done. Before alternatives
can be developed this must be accomplished.
Item 4 - Miscellaneous
Duncan Silver felt that there needed to be a list developed
of general environmental factors.
This should be completed
before the development of alternatives begins. Stan Nuffer
indicated that the environmental team is gathering information and there should be some basic understanding before
serious alternative development began.

We have compiled the accompanying information from a telephone
survey developed and conducted by Councilman Fred Duersch Jr.
This compilation is 1 imited to presenting information that is
the representation of Councilman Duersch. We have not audited or
reviewed the accompanying information and, accordingly, do not
express and opinion or any other form of assurance.
The purpose of the survey was to determine voter attitudes
regarding proposed modifications to the Logan Canyon Highway.
The sample was taken from a 1 ist publ ished by Carr Printing
of Logan City residents who voted in the 1987 elections.
A
systematic sample of 208 was taken from a population of 3,722. The
sample represents approximately 6% of the population.
Exh i bit 1 shows the quest ions used in the survey and the
sample occurrence rate of aYes u and RNo n responses. It also shows
the true occurrence rate for uNon answers in the tota l population
based on a statistical evaluation.
Exhibits 2 - 8 show information regarding respondents to the
survey by gender, frequency in travel ing the canyon and the amount
of time 1 iving in the county.

Wendell Anderson - Visitor
Willis Tingey - Visitor
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
(
Stan Nuffer lead the discussion on the minutes of the last
team meeting.
The only item brought up related to the Safety
Tech memo. Jack Spence suggested that it would be better to
state that some locations along the highway had higher than
average accident rates rather than higher than expected accident rates, since there was really no way of determining
expected accident rates. Jack also had a suggestion on
Table 10. If the level of confidence was going to be included as part of the table, there should be some explanation
of what it meant. Steve Flint asked that the number of fatalities be included on Table 8, along with the number of fatal
accidents.
There was no other discussion on the minutes of the previous
meeting.
Item 2 - Discussion of Alternate Routes (to Logan Canyon)
John Neil reported on his study of alternate routes from
Logan to Bear Lake. He had invited Mr. Wendell Anderson and
Mr. Willis Tingey to report on a study that they had made on
the possibility of a route through Blacksmith Fork Canyon.
The study was conducted at the request of former Governor
Clyde.
It was pointed out that a route from Logan to Sage
Junction through Blacksmith Fork Canyon was 8 to 10 miles
shorter and the maximum elevation was 500 feet lower than
the existing route through Logan Canyon. Both Mr. Anderson
and Mr. Tingey felt that Logan Canyon would not be able to
handle all of the traffic that it would be asked to handle
and that an alternate route should be considered.
1
�John Neil reported that UDOT planners had told him that the
simplest way to develop an alternate route would be to develop some additional recreational areas that needed the
access. The construction cost of an alternate route was
estimated at $1.5 to $2.0 million per mile.
Lynn Zollinger agreed that Logan Canyon will not be able to
carryall of the traffic that will ultimately travel between
Bear Lake and the Wasatch Front. However it has not been
determined how much more, if any, traffic Logan Canyon can
handle before the impacts become unacceptable. Lynn suggested that there not be any more consideration of alternate
routes, at least until it has been determined that there
will be need for more capacity than Logan Canyon can carry.
Jack Spence agreed with Lynn, there did not seem to be the
need for additional capacity at the present and that study
of alternate routes was not warranted.
If it was determined
that there was major action of the same scale required in
Logan Canyon then the examination of alternate routes would
be warranted.
Other discussion about the Blacksmith Fork alternate involved
possible environmental problems with the River, Hardware
Ranch and the lack of room in Left Hand Fork.
It was decided
that this discussion would be summarized for the record in a
memo and action to be taken at the next meeting.
(
Item 3 - Discussion of Goals and Objectives Tech Memo
Stan Nuffer lead the discussion of the overall goals and
objectives that had been presented in a draft technical memorandum at the last ID team meeting. The first topic · was
the minimum speed that the "baseline" alternative would be
designed for.
There was some question about a 35 mph mini, mum in the lower part of the canyon. Fred LaBar said that a
40 mph minimum speed had been considered before in that section and had been found to be acceptable. Jim Naegle asked
if the modified standard section had been used in the previous study. Some thought that it had but none were certain.
Duncan Silver suggested that copies of the 1979 proposal and
analysis be distributed to members of the ID team so that
the team had an opportunity to review the past work and decide whether the past study was still valid. This approach
would be better than just rubber stamping a study that most
on the team were not familiar with.
It was also suggested that the AASHTO recommended minimums
be included in the table on page 3 of the memo. Rudy Lukes
asked where there would be minimum speeds greater than 40 mgh.
Stan Nuffer said that in some areas the posted speed is currently 55 mph and that he thought we could maintain that
speed in those areas.
2
�(
There was also some discussion on what "minimum" meant.
Some expressed concern that the minimum set now would be
absolute regardless of other consequences. Stan explained
that in order to establish roadway features (curves, etc.)
minimum speeds needed to be set. If the impacts of designing a roadway for one "minimum" are unacceptable then a new
"minimum" speed would be required. Minimum speeds are not
meant to be fixed at the beginning of the study and then not
redefined if needed.
The technical memo illustrated standard sections and modified
standard sections for 40 mph.
It was suggested that sections
for 35 and 55 mph also be included.
Steve Flint expressed concern that delineators would make
parking areas unuseable. Duncan Silver said that the need
for parking should be evaluated and planned for where
needed.
Rudy Lukes wondered if the dugway was really a good place to
consider a climbing lane. Duncan Silver said that there
should be an inventory of the needs for climbing lanes
before looking at possible locations. To conduct the
inventory the team should:
1.
Establish criteria for the selection of possible
locations.
2.
Identify those sections which may meet the
criteria.
3.
Identify the possible environmental constraints at
those sites.
Slow vehicle turnouts were also discussed. Lynn Zollinger
indicated that the turnouts need to be placed where those
using the turnouts will have a good view of the roadway
in order to safely get out of and back into the traffic.
The final item on the goals and objectives memo was a suggestion to add a section on the need for recreational parking.
Fred LaBar said that the Forest Service could help identify
where recreational parking was needed.
Item 4 - Alternate Alignments from the Summit to Garden City
Stan Nuffer said that the Archeologist was preparing an

Re:
Attention:
Delineation in Logan Canyon Safety Project
HES- 02l(6)
Mr. Rudy Lukez
Dear Mr . Lukez:
Thank you for the comments of your June 16, 1986 letter. The U. S.
Forest Service and ourselves are currently in discussion regarding the
matter of delineators on US- 89 in Logan Canyon.
Since this project is a
safety construction project utilizing Federal and State safety funds, there
is some guarded caution to not increase public liability by failing to
provide a reasonable protection to the motorist.
The principal items being addressed in this contract are those which
have been identified as being substandard so far as safety features are
concerned. These difficiencies are those which could cause great harm to
the public and magnify the liability exposure of the public agencies
involved.
We feel we have a cordial relation with the USFS district office in
Logan, and I am confident that our present discussions will bring about a
decision that will be sensitive to the the scenic values of the Canyon.
Sincerely yours,
"
-tf~E.
District One Director

Item 1 - Review of Minutes
There were no cornnlents on the minutes of the previous meeting.
(
Steve Flint expressed concern over the traffic forecast and
felt that an exponential forecast is not statistically
supportable from the traffic data for the Logan Canyon
stations shown in the technical memorandum. He was also
concerned that level of service projections based on that
growth rate would be misleading. He suggested a time series
analysis and using data as far back as available.
Stan
Nuffer reviewed the methods and assumptions used when the
technical memorandum was presented and accepted by the
I.D. Team in August 1986.
In the original analysis, we had
looked at a number of areas to forecast growth including
traffic data for a number of highways including stations on
U.S. 89 outside of the Canyon. Also data from regional
economic and local land use forecasting was used, which
forecast a growth rate in the 2 percent range. All of these
sources of data were used to arrive at the proposed rate.
Concern has been expressed that the 2 percent rate was too
low when compared against projections made by UDOT in the
past. After considerable discussion, a motion was passed
with one negative vote to retain at 2 percent (1.95)
experimental growth rate.
Stan agreed to look at what
effect differences in the projected ADT would have in
capacity determinations.
Steve also suggested that Section 2 be broken into two subsections, for capacity analysis which will be considered.
The assumption for one percent buses in the traffic needs to
be supported by data or dropped. Lynn Zollinger suggested
we check with Idaho and Wyoming on what projections they are
using.

�(
Duncan Silver asked what process will be used in determining
visual impacts, and if there are any rules or guidelines
that can be followed.
Clark Qstergaard ·said that the · existing analysis shows what is there and what should be preserv~d.
Each area will have to be handled on a case-by-case basis
for each of the alternatives. Mitigation measures may be
possible in some areas.
Due to the length of discussion on the above items, agenda

PROJECT INTRODUCTION
STUDY OF U.S. HIGHWAY 89 THROUGH LOGAN CANYON
UTAH DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
PURPOSE
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has the responsibility of maintaining all state and federal highways in a
condition that will allow safe transportation. A number of
specific sites along U.S. Highway 89 in Logan Canyon have
been identified by UDOT as requiring repair in the near future to provide safe transportation in the Canyon. Much of
the highway in the Canyon lies within the Cache National
Forest, which is administered by the U.S. Forest Service
(USFS) who must approve all work on the road beyond routine
maintenance. As a result of these currently needed repairs
and other perceived problems, UDOT and USFS have agreed that
an overall transportation plan for the Canyon is necessary
and that a comprehensive study of the possible problems and
needed repairs/improvements should be conducted rather than
examining each site independently as major problems occur.
To begin, UDOT selected CH2M HILL, a consulting firm of
Engineers, Planners, Economists, and Scientists with offices
in Salt Lake City and other communities throughout the country
to conduct the study. Valley Engineering, Inc. of Logan is
a major subcontractor.
This study has three major objectives:
o
To identify locations on the road where problems
in safety, maintenance, road design, and capacity
occur, and to document these problems.
o
To propose several alternative means, through repair
or improvements, to correct the problems.
o
To conduct an analysis of the potential impacts of
the proposed alternatives on the environment.
BACKGROUND
This portion of U.S. 89 has been under scrutiny by UDOT for
some time because of congestion, accidents, and maintenance
problems. The highway has been on UDOT's schedule for improvement since the late 1950s. In 1961, improvements were
made to the road between Logan and DeWitt Springs.
In 1969,
the section between DeWitt Springs and Right Hand Fork was
improved. Pre-design work on improvements between Right
Hand Fork and Ricks Springs was completed in late 1968, but
following passage of the National Environmental Policy Act
1
�(NEPA) in 1969, local concern showed the necessity to reevaluate the project. The Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) determined in 1972 that an environmental impact statement (EIS) would be required for the project in accordance
with NEPA. At this time, the project consisted of improvements to the road that would result in a 4-lane highway.
Considerable study of the project intended to conclude in a
draft EIS continued until April 1979. The original 4-lane
highway concept was discarded for one that would widen the
pavement from the existing 22 feet to 34 feet, provide a
5-foot cut ditch, and raise the design speed from 35 to
40 miles per hour. As a result of that change, the FHWA
reclassified the project to require only an environmental
assessment rather than a full EIS. Again, local concern
(involving the environmental community), over the reclassification of the project resulted in the FHWA revising its
decision and requiring a full EIS for the project. Changes
to NEPA adopted by Congress in 1977 resulted in revision of
all federal agency guidelines for the preparation of EIS.
UDOT therefore suspended work on the EIS in 1980 to await
the new directives, and is now reactivating the process.
DESCRIPTION OF STUDY
The first task is to analyze travel constraints in the Canyon,
including safety, maintenance costs, points of substandard
design, and congestion. Accident reports will be reviewed
in an attempt to determine the cause, and accident rates
will be compared with those of comparable roads in the state.
Locations with abnormally high maintenance costs will be
evaluated. This analysis will include calculation of permile costs for the entire length of road, identification of
specific sites of unusually high costs, and comparison of
these costs with statewide road maintenance costs. Highway
segments where the road geometrics may be inadequate for the
overall design speed will be inventoried and assessed. Finally, the degree and occurrence of congestion on the road
will be determined by identifying the road capacity and
evaluating current traffic volumes. The level of service
that can be provided on the existing highway in year 2010,
with expected traffic increases, will be projected. A report will be prepared explaining the findings of this part
of the study.
The second task will be to prepare a transportation plan for
the corridor, including up to six alternative concepts. The
alternatives will consider specific repairs or improvement
plans for sites where problems have been identified including
spot improvements, resurfacing, new signing, reconstruction
along the existing alignment, and widening of the existing
2
�roadway between Right-Hand Fork and Garden City. Such
widening might include slow-moving vehicle lanes, passing
lanes, or minor alignment changes. From Bear Lake Summit to
Garden City, the plan will consider the location of two
totally new, alternative routes, one to the north of the
existing road and one to the south. Each alternative will
be evaluated in terms of costs and benefits, including construction costs, reduction of travel time, vehicle and road
maintenance costs, safety, aesthetics, and recreational factors.
General environmental trade-offs and a comparison of engineering requirements for each alternative will also be incorporated into the technical report prepared upon completion of this study task.
Major geologic features of the study corridor will be identified and a geotechnical analysis conducted. A description
of engineering conditions of the soils and geology as they
relate to possible construction and maintenance problems
will result from the analysis. Northern Engineering and
Testing of Salt Lake City is a subcontractor to CH2M HILL
for the geotechnical work.
An environmental analysis will then be conducted. A full
environmental impact statement may ultimately be required.
The environmental analysis will include participation of
interest groups, agencies, and the general public to identify major issues to be investigated in the analysis.
The
analysis will be based on literature review and field studies and will identify possible impacts of each project
alternative and suggest mitigation measures.

Before moving to Philadelphia last summer I lived in
Logan for more than 6 years and have become very attached to
the beauty and diverse recreational opportunities of Logan
Canyon - a place of striking natural scenery only a five
minute's drive away from my door step in Logan. As a planner
and landscape architect I have become very concerned with
the repeated efforts of the Utah Department of
Transportation to widen portions of highway 89 which serves
primarily recreation traffic to various destinations in the
canyon and to Bear Lake.
The enviromental impacts of road widening in a narrow
canyon especially during the construction phase are
tremendous, ranging from pollutants carried by increased
runoff to complete rechanneling of the river severely
altering flow patterns, stream velocity, the aquatic and the
riparian life zones. However, I will not talk about the
environmental effects here. I assume others who are more
qualified will do so. Instead, I will talk about the scenic
experience one has on Logan Canyon highway and how it will
be affected by the proposed developments.
Beautiful scenery can make driving an enjoyable
experience. Especially when the road changes direction
frequently allowing the driver to enjoy views from a number
of different angles without having to take his eyes away
fl'"om thE·? r-oc1.d.
Speed of travel greatly influences what the driver can
see. At high speeds only far away objects will be visible
long enough to be noticed. A wide open valley is suited ver-y
well for high speed tr-avel, because scenery at a distance of
several miles~ such as mountain ranges~ will be visible long
enough to make an impression on the driver.
In a canyon the time allowed to enjoy a particular view
greatly r-educed if travelling at the same high speeds. In
the wider parts of Logan Canyon from Ricks Springs to Bear
Lake summit a travel speed of 40-50 mph allows the driver to
view a number of peaks and long valleys, such as Steam Mill
Peak, Beaver Mtn. ~ Bunchgrass Canyon, and the Sinks.
IS
:I.
�In the lower part of the canyon, from First Dam to
Right Hand Fork? the road follows the river in wide arcs
around dominant ridge lines that fade into light blues in
the distance. Each ridge is the gate to a new segment of the
canyon leaving the driver in constant anticipation of what
lies ahead. The road in this part of the canyon has been
widened in the past to allow for travel speeds up to 50 mph
and it includes passing lanes. The general openess and width
of the canyon can accomodate this speed as the driver still
has sufficient time to enjoy the scenery.
The canyon narrows down further after Right Hand Fork.
Steep slopes on either side of the canyon reduce the field
of vision substantially. Even at 25-30 mph one can only
catch a glimpse of the splendid views, sometimes through the
canopy of road side vegetation. It is this part of the
canyon that offers the viewer the most dramatic limestone
walls, wooded slopes, and the closest views of the river
rapids through lush riparian vegetation.
Most objects
viewed are within 100 feet of the road. Passing by at speeds
exceeding 30-35 mph would result in nothing more than a
blurr and tunnel vision.
It becomes evident that a widening of the road to allow
for faster travel will only result in a diminished
experience of the canyon's beauty. Logan Canyon highway need
not become a high speed connection for travellers concerned
only with how fast they can reach their point of
destination. Interstate highways serve these needs far
better. Tourists with tight schedules are better advised to
use 1-15 and Rte 30 to travel to Grand Teton and Yellowstone
National Parks.
Logan Canyon j c a scenic attraction in itself. Along
with the valley it may be one of the most memorable
experiences for travellers who enjoy being away from the
fast paced systems of transportation.
Do we want to sacrifice the scenic experience of Logan
Canyon for those who want to beat the lift lines at Beaver
Mountain Ski area or those who race their motor boats up the
canyon on their way to Bear Lake? Granted, some of the
proposed improvements such as bridge replacement, turnoff
lanes, parking areas off the highway, and signs warning of
bicyclists would greatly reduce some of the problems
experienced in the past.
I support only some of the proposed actions in Plan B
spot improvements. Left turning lanes at Tony Grove Lake and
Beaver Mountain will greatly reduce the inherent conflict of
fast moving vehicles, and vehicles waiting to make a left
turn. Many recreational vehicles move slower than the
average traffic resulting in long lines and sometimes
dangerous passing maneuvers. These problems could be
2
�improved by providing turnoff lanes and requiring slower
vehicles to make use of them. I strongly oppose a passing
lane in the dugway section, even though it is the only
feasible stretch of road for a passing lane in that part of
the canyon. The extensive blasting and resulting
destabilization of the above lying steep slopes will cause
ongoing erosion problems for the road as well as add
sediments to the river below.
I feel that an approach, where each segment of road is
studied as a separate problem by weighing the benefits of
improvement against the degree of environmental impact~
responds much better to the unique areas of Logan Canyon.
I urge you to reconsider some of the Plan B spot
improvements proposed for Logan Canyon highway, to assess
the real values of the canyon and the interests of those who
enjoy its recreational and scenic qualities most.

ITEM 1--REVIEW OF MINUTES
May 18, 1987, minutes approved as distributed. June 22,
1987, minutes approved with one correction: Item 4, page 5
to mention conflict with existing forest plan. Duncan
Silver requested that a complete summary file of minutes be
circulated.
ITEM 3--DISCUSSION OF PUBLIC AND AGENCY INVOLVEMENT (ISSUES
AND CONCERNS) TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
This item was moved up on the agenda because we wanted Clark
Ostergaard to arrive before we discussed Item 2. The reference to environmental groups in the second paragraph,
page 2, is to be dropped. The Corps of Engineers needs to
be involved in the delineation of wetlands. Additional
documentation of emergency medical service was requested. A
section on endangered species needs to be added to USF&WS
list of concerns. The summary of Logan city comments should
differentiate between mayor's and city council members'
statements.
Issues need to be identified independent of
source. Summaries from Cache County, BRAG, and Chamber of
Commerce need to be included in the agency responses.
The forest plan needs to be 'clearly recognized. Any conflicts with it that exist in the alternatives should be
identified. After considerable discussion, it was concluded
that the issues and concerns should be grouped into five
broad categories:
o
Scenic values
o
Safety and traffic flow
o
Ecological considerations--river, riparian areas,
threatened and endangered species
1
�o
Regional economics
o
Compliance with existing plans, specifically the
forest plan
Additional specific concerns that were mentioned in the
scoping process included pedestrian traffic, recreation
parking, bicyclists, road cross sections, economic impacts
in Rich County, Rich County road maintenance, and mitigation
difficulties. The issues discussion should possibly be
moved to the front of the document.
ITEM 2--VISUAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
FHWA versus USFS classification systems discussed. The FHWA
system applies credit to improvements. The document adequately met the needs of both systems. The various alternatives need to address retention and document which visual
categories can be mitigated. The impact on the affected
areas must be put into perspective by identifying the number
of acres total in each category out to an arbitrary line
(30 feet from the roadway). Copy of Jack Spence's written
comments is to be circulated to the team.
ITEM 4--SPOT IMPROVEMENTS
Raising of the road grade in selected areas needs to be
included as a spot improvement. Stage construction may be a
means for mitigation. Copies of Table 4, which shows a summary of positive, negative, or insignificant impacts of the
spot improvements, was circulated. The table is a start
toward identifying impacts; the team will respond in writing
in 2 weeks with their own evaluation. A suggestion was made
to mark with an "X" those impacts that cannot be mitigated.
The . possible development of a second spot improvement alternative that is more limited in scope was discussed. We
decided to go ahead with the evaluation of the full list and
then see if it would be advisable to include more than one
spot improvement alternative in the DEIS.
Larry England reviewed the Macquire primrose biological
assessment provided by Dr. Stanley Welsh. He indicated that
the USF&WS does not completely concur with Welsh's conclusions. Other sites (outside the project area) have experienced a significant decline, apparently due to climatic
conditions. The USF&WS would not like to see a passing lane
in the area, but road widening would be acceptable. England
would like to work with others involved in the process so a
jeopardy opinion could be avoided.
2
�ITEM 5--ROAD USER BENEFIT AND COST COMPARISON
The cost comparison memorandum was discussed briefly. A
request was made for more information on cost background,
and for an example of how the cost benefits were obtained.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS
An accident analysis for Logan Cave area and mile post 384
was circulated. The predominant accident type involved
vehicles running off the road.
Sketches of the various concepts for flattening the curve at
Logan Cave were circulated. The sketches illustrate the
concepts outlined in the Technical Memorandum Chapter 8,
pages 8-9 and 8-10.
Steve Flint pointed out a discrepancy in Figure 6-1 and
Table 6-1 of the traffic capacity Technical Memorandum.
Corrections will be circulated.
Time of a future meeting was left open pending assessment of
responses to the spot improvements evaluation, and additional
comments on the technical memoranda.

1. An important consideration with respect to the extent of various
impacts is the relative amount of area affected.
This is particu-
larly critical for riparian areas (visual sensitivity rating 6 or 7).
For example, in alternative Cl, the total riparian area affected
is estimated at 9.5 acres.
This calculates to be a strip approxi-
mately 9 feet wide for the entire middle section of the canyon, and
agrees closely with the amount of riparian area affected by addition
of a strip 8.5 feet wide to the highway (modified standard).
Since
the middle section is very narrow, all land between the road and
the river is riparian (U.S.F.S. standard is anything less than
100 fee t ) .
How mu c h
in this alternative?
0
f the tot aIr i par ian z 0 new 0 u 1 d .b e a f f e c ted
50%?
75%?
For alternative 0, 40 mph, it must
approach 100%, since this calculates to be a strip 13.5 feet wide
for the entire section.
In order to evaluate the impact, an esti-
mate .of the amount (%) of total riparian zone destroyed in each
alternative needs to be given.
2.
The t maps showing the area to be affected are somewhat misleading,
since they indicate, e.g., riparian zone only exists where the
R/7(6)
symbol occurs.
In fact, in the middle canyon, the entire
area between the road and the river is riparian zone, and any widening of the road will affect it for the entire length of the section.
This should be clarified for Cl, 01 alternatives.
3.
No accounts is taken of the impact on visual resources for those
using the canyon but not driving.
Campers, fisherman, hikers, etc,
not on the road may have their visual resources adversely affected
�·
\
by the various alternatives, but in a different manner than drivers.
How is this to be evaluated?
4.
Page 6.
Evaluation Criteria.
It is stated: "Roadsides with
a 3-5 rating can absorb alternations, but will require major mitigation (retaining walls, bridges, etc)." It is hard to understand
how a retaining wall or a bridge can mitigate the loss of naturalness.
5.
The memo indicates all alterations in areas with a 6 or 7 sen-
sitivity index (which includes all riparian zones) cannot meet the
f.
/\
VQO or Retention, which is required by the Forest Plan.
These
amount to a considerable amount of the total area affected, particularly in the middle canyon (35% for Cl; 34% for 01, 35 mph; 35% for
01, 40 mph), as well as parts of the upper canyon (Franklin Basin
road to Beaver Mountain Road, Summit).
however, as to how this
C
impas~
No indication is given,
is to be solved.
Clearly, this will
require a revision of the Forest Plan for these alternatives, since
such a large part of the total area will be affected.
The implica-
tions of this must be spelled out in the OEIS. This is a critical
omission.
t
6.
The spot Improvement Alternative (B) appears to include all spot
alternatives in the form originally proposed.
There is no such alter-
natives, since the number and extent of each improvement must be agreed
upon.
It must be made clear this alternative includes all spot improve-
ments at the maximum level for each, and the final alternative will
be for fewer and smaller improvements.
As it now stands, there is
little to differentiate Bl from Cl in the sections affected: the only
difference is in the width of the road between improvements.

Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Duncan Silver suggested that there be no more discussion on
roadway maintenance and that the tech memo be written so
that the team could go on to other items. Lynn Zollinger
indicated that the material placed along the river was not
bladed into the river but rather bladed to the side to
establish a roadway shoulder.
There was no other discussion on the minutes.
Item 2 - Draft Traffic Forecast Technical Memorandum
Steve Flint presented written comments on the draft memorandum and a copy was presented to each team member present.
Jack Spence indicated that he had tried several methods to
, try and establish a trend using annual and non-summer ADT's
and found that the scatter of the points was too great to
draw any conclusions. From a statistical standpoint a correlation was not found.
However, given the data available,
he could not recommend an approach which would be any better
than those described in the memo.
Duncan Silver felt that the methodology used was adequate
and that the written comments received should be incorporated
into the memo and this portion of the study concluded. There
was agreement on use of the 2 percent compounded growth for
making traffic projections.
(
There was some discussion on how and when the design hour
volume would be e?tablished. Cliff Forsgren explained that
it was planned to select the design hour volume as part of
the capacity evaluation. The 100 highest hour volumes for
1
�several of the past years are being plotted and will be available _ by the next meeting. -- The design hour volume will be
determined at that time.
Item 3 - Review of Manual Traffic Counts
Stan Nuffer reviewed the manual traffic count data.
The
manual counts have been completed and the data will now be
reduced.
Duncan Silver asked how a traffic profile would be
developed through the Canyon. Stan explained that the data
from the permanent station and the manual counts would be
correlated to establish a profile and directional split
through the Canyon. Stan pointed out that the hourly directional split appears to follow an urban distribution.
Item 4 - Review of Existing Roadway Features
Stan Nuffer distributed illustrations of typical road crosssections at mile posts through the Canyon and explained that
this information would be used to establish capacity and
level of service.
The discussion focused primarily on the design speed and how
and when it would be established.
Stan Nuffer indicated
that it would be desirable to keep the speed as uniform as
possible through the Canyon, but that may not be possible.
It was explained that the design speed is usually a function
of lane width and horizontal and vertical alignment.
Lynn Zollinger asked when the alternate routes from the Summit
to Garden C~ty would be considered.- Stan Nuffer explained
that it would occur during the alternative development task
which was yet to come. The 1 inch = 500 feet mapping will
not be available until mid September.
General Discussion
Jack Spence expressed some concern ab6ut whether or not
there would be enough information available to hold the
first public involvement meeting in early September.
It was
decided that since the first meeting had not been officially
scheduled to wait until the information was available to
schedule the public involvement meeting.
The next ID Team meeting will held in Brigham City.

LOGAN CANYON ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING
December 8, 1986
(
Attendance:
Cliff Forsgren, CH2M HILL
Stan Nuffer, CH2M HILL
Fred LaBar, USFS
Clark Ostergaard, USFS
Mark Shaw, USFS
Gale Larson, Valley Engineering
Duncan Silver, FHWA
John Neil, UDOT
Lynn Zollinger, UDOT
Jim Naegle, UDOT
Rudy Lukez, Sierra Club
Jack Spence, Sierra Club
Item I - Review of Minutes
Stan Nuffer conducted a revi~w of the minutes of the previous meeting.
Items that were not included in the minutes
and should have been were:
o
Item 5. The Forest Service is going to provide
the team members with a copy of the _
parking and
recreation master plan . .
o
Item 6. The first time "LOS" is used, it should '
be proceeded by Level of __
Service.
o
Item 6. The last sentence was changed to more
accurately reflect the fact that much of the Canyon
will not accommodate a climbing lane.
(
In addition to the corrections, Duncan Silver clarified his
request .for a status report on the Technical Memorandums.
What he had in mind was a "scorecard" which simply listed
the subject and status (draft, received, approved, final). Jack Spence also asked for some clarification from the
Forest Service on their desire to reduce parking in some
areas of the Canyon. Fred LaBar indicated that there was a
need to maintain adequate parking for fishing and other
recreational purposes, but some types of parking, (hunters
for example) need to be better controlled.
Item 2 - Discussion of Issues and Concerns
Copies of written comments received to date were distributed
as were copies of the transcripts of the two public meetings.
Cliff Forsgren explained the way the comments are being tabulated. There is some difficulty in tabulating the verbal
1
�(
comments received at the public meetings because not all
speakers identified themselves.
It is possible that some
persons, who were not identified, spoke up at more than one
time and those views were tabulated on each occasion. Another difficulty is the best way to handle questions from
people who did not express a view.
The 1.0. Team members
were asked to review the transcripts and tabulations and
make any suggestions they might have.
Item 3 - Discussion of Schedule for Completion of the Scoping
Process
Stan Nuffer explained that the scoping requirements are different for the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) than for
an Environmental Assessment (EA). There is a lengthy notification process for an EIS. Stan suggested that, if the
I.D. Team felt that an EIS would ultimately be required, the
EIS scoping process should be started.
Duncan Silver did not feel that there was enough environmental information available to make any kind of preliminary
determination on the need for an EIS. Clark Ostergaard indicated that he would like to know if there was critical
spawning habitat in the River that might be impacted by some
alternatives. Jack Spence pointed out that in maintaining
the Forest Service visual standards, the· improvements that
were possible may not be significant enough to require an
EIS. After considerable discussion it was decided that the
environmental inventories describing
the affected environment need to be reviewed in a manner
similar to the previous, techn~cal ,~~morandums. ~fter there
memorandums have been reviewed, a determination of the
appropriate scoping process could be made.
During the discussion, Duncan Silver also indicated that
tFHWA would probably review the final document (EA of EIS) as
if it were as EIS. Jim Naegle said that information would
be helpful to UDOT because it appeared that there would be 'a
. lengthy review period regardless of the type of final report.
Item 4 - Update of Final Visual Classification
Clark Ostergaard presented some updated information on visual
classifications in the Canyon. He brought his latest mapping
effort that showed the visual classifications between Right
Fork and Ricks Springs. Duncan Silver asked if the visual
retention criteria allowed for "upgrades" in one area to
offset "downgrades" in another. For example, if as a result
of the roadway improvements, a portion of road that had a
classification of 2 was raised to 3, would it be possible at
another location to allow a 5 before construction to be a 4
after.
Clark was not sure how to address that and would
have an answer for the next meeting.
2
�(
Item 5 - Layouts for Component Widening and Alignment Improv.ement from Ricks Springs to Garden City
Stan Nuffer reviewed the plan and profile of the widening
and alignment improvement component from Ricks Springs to
Garden City. Much of this component has a climbing lane.
Lynn Zollinger said that if a climbing lane were to be constructed, intersections would also require special
attention.
NOTE: Prior to the beginning of the meeting John Ellsworth
from Utah State University made a presentation of a computer
simulation technique for depicting topographic modifications.

TASK DESCRIPTIONS
TASK 1:
ANALYSIS OF TRANSPORTATION NEEDS
The following factors contributing to undesirable traveling
conditions are to be reviewed. After obtaining relevant
readily available information from the UDOT Statewide Planning Section, the UDOT Division of Safety and the Utah Department of Public Safety, the following five topics shall
.be covered:
o
Safety - Locations within the project limits, considered to be unsafe, will be identified. Accidents will be evaluated as to type, time of occurrence, severity, and possible causes. The resulting evaluation will correlate accident characteristics and geometric features and determine
which accidents were caused by rock, soil, or snow
materials moving onto the highway. A comparative
analysis using UDOT summary data will weigh accident rates with those of one to two other state
highways of a similar nature.
Raw data, consisting of specific accident reports
for high accident locations provided by UDOT, may
be used in the analysis.
o
Maintenance - A 3-year record of annual maintenance costs will be provided by the Maintenance
Division of UDOT for the purposes of the consultant developing:
Per mile costs for corridor,
Specific locations with unusally high
costs,
Statewide costs for a comparative analysis.
The locations of adverse conditions that contribute to high maintenance costs will be located on
topographic alig?ment maps.
Maintenance cost data available from UDOT will be
complemented by subjective interviews with UDOT
District One maintenance personnel.
Substandard Geometrics - The consultant shall
identify and appraise specific substandard geometric locations.

Congestion The intensity and regularity of congestion will be determined in terms of Level of
Service.
The analysis will be based on procedures
described in TRB Special Report 209 and will include:
~C~ pi"~'L
~~
Highway Capacities:
Levels of Service C, r(,
~ ndrE will be determined for the length of
~ N~kN -
~~ project.
Vehicular Demand:
Present demand will be
established, based on data, from the permanent traffic counter No. 362, located west of
Garden City and from on-project counts to be
taken by the consultant.
Two locations, Beay er
Mountain Ski area and Ri t
F k wi ii
e surveyed in the winter months for 10-hour
periods on 2 week days and 2 weekend days.
Two additional locations will be surveyed in
the summer months for 10-hour periods on 2 week
days and 2 weekend days.
These shall reflect
hourly peaks, vehicular types, and intersection turning movements.
Traffic Projections:
Traffic demand for the
year 2010 will be estimated from information
supplied by . UDOT. (~\Js.-\ co\\~<-~l"'~")
Levels of Service:
Present and year 2010
levels will be determined and expressed in
both peak and average hours.
Other Observed Needs and Deficiencies: As
the consultant becomes familiar with the highway section, other deficiencies may become
evident and if so, they are to be noted in
the environmental document.
An Analysis of Transportation Needs will be included in the
Technical Appendix (described in T6640.8, Attachment, page 25)
and a summary of transportation problems will be included in
the draft document under "Purpose of the Keen for p_ction"
(see T6640.8, Attachment, pages 7-8).
TASK 2:
LOCATION STUDIES
(tv\l"'lMV~' )
In this task the consultant, with assistance from UDOT, FHWA,
and the USFS, will prepare a transportation plan for the
corridor.
In addi tion to the "No--A

iEcorrcr2tE= t ]~ ~ fc' ) J owing components:
�Hand Fork to Garden City
Spot improvements to existing roadway
Resurfacing and resigning of existing roadway
Widening along existing alignment, including
slow moving vehicle lanes, passing lanes,
and/or minor alignment changes.
Reconstruction along existing alignment
Summit to Garden City
Two new routings, including routes to the
south or north of the existing highway
The ex~sting UDOT mapping at a scale of 1" = 100', with 2-foot
contours, will be used for studies of the existing roadway.
From the summit to Garden City, mapping at a scale of 1" =
~OO' with 10-foot contours will be used.
The aerial photography obtained by UDOT in 1985 will be used as the basis for
the mapping.
If viable routings are identified, that UDOT
determines to need more detailed mapping and studies, the
scope, costs, and fee .of this work will be negotiated as
additional work under this . agreement.
Cost comparisons for each al ternati.vE' , in,cludin '} the "No-Action"
alternativ~, will be developed for construction costs, user
costs, and benefit/cost ratios adjusted to the present consumer price index. The recommended methodology found in A
MANUAL OF USER BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF HIGHWAY AND BUS-TRANSIT
IMPROVEMENTS - AASHTO, 1977, will be used. This comparative
analysis will consider the following:
o
Benefits from reduced travel time,
o
Benefits from reduced vehicle operation and road
maintenance costs,
o
Benefits from reduced number of accidents,
Benefits from scenic viewers (i.e., economic bene· fit from people driving to Logan Canyon to view
fall colors, fish, hunt, etc., whose satisfaction
comes from less development or a less-than-standard
highway) .
All alternatives will be developed to a level of detail,
comparable to each other. The end product of Task 2 will be
a transportation plan containing preliminary maps and
profiles (1" = 200' on clear film) showing each alternative
routing; a matrix of environmental trade-offs; comparisons
of engineering details relative to each alternative routing;
�and anticipated contrasts to the existing conditions. This
plan will be included in a Technical Appendix, with a summary appearing in the environmental document under "Alternatives Including Proposed Action."
TASK 3:
GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS
A geologic and topographic strip map (based on USGS
1:24,000-scale maps) of sufficient detail to show major geologic features of the entire study corridor, with particular
emphasis on the east end will be prepared. For each geological formation or mappable unit depicted, a brief description of engineering characteristics, as they relate to construction and maintenance problems, will be made. Preliminary and soil investigations performed by the consultant
will include test borings, slope stability and settlement
analyses, soil and rock sampling, laboratory analyses, and
examination of groundwater conditions.
A brief summary of geotechnical analysis will be included in
the Technical Appendix, with a summary of the findings incorporated into Task 6, as appropriate.

)
This task effort will run concurrently with the other tasks.
Government agencies, community organizations, and interested
citizens are to be kept aware of project issues as they arise
and their input is to be sought, acknowledged, and documented
~j
by the consultant. This will be accomplished by small group
~~ ~hS
fY\-" ,~~
discussions (up to 10 meetings),
sco in meetin
(in Logan), t ~ ~o
moderate media coverage, and informational meetings (up to
I~
5 meetings for service clubs, etc.). One or more staff members of UDOT will accompany consultant personnel during introductory or initial contacts with all state and local
agencies and community organizations. All press releases
will be prepared and submitted to UDOT for distribution to
~~
the news media.
The scoping session will follow the CEQ
~oS ~.
guidelines given in the 1981 memorandum "Scoping Guidance." e."l-S \ ~ ClU'
A ublic hearin on the draft environmental assessmept will

f
Requirements relative to cooperating agencies (CEQ 1501.6),
the scoping process (CEQ 1501.7), and, if necessary, Notice
of Intent (CEQ 1508.22) will be the responsibility of the
consultant--except in instances where the federal agency
must initiate requests and other correspondence.
In these
_ latter cases, the consultant will provide support services
only.
I
�Meetings involving the general public will generally be held
in the evening or on weekends. When agency participation is
desired, meetings will generally be conducted during the
workday. Each scoping endeavor will be tailored to the group
involved.
A video tape of approximately 20-minute duration will be
prepared by the consultant at least 3 months prior to the
formal public hearing (or advertisement for a hearing opportunity). Alternative proposals and environmental tradeoffs
will be addressed in the tape. Twelve (12) copies will be
submitted to UDOT.
Until the work under this task is completed, the consultant
team shall maintain a local office (in Logan). The office
will be staffed and open for business during normal working
hours, a minimum of 40 hours per week. Staff will be available (up to ten engineering man-days and ten additional support staff man-days) as a source of project information in
the local community. A project fact sheet will be prepared
for distribution from the local office, with up to three
fact sheet updates during the course of the project.
Documentation of public involvement efforts will be included
-in the environmental document under various headings as appropriate (see FHWA REGION 8 ENVIRONMENTAL NOTEBOOK, Section 2).
TASK 5 COORDINATION
The first activity of this task will be to organize the interdisciplinary study team. Specific individual members
will be identified and confirmed by discussions with each
agency.
The environmental community representative will be determined
by the community. This will be done by first identifying
the environmental groups with probable interest in the Logan
Canyon project. Each will be contacted to inform them of
the need for a representative and to arrange for a meeting
of their leadership. At the leadership meeting, the groups
will be asked to develop a procedure to select their representative. The consultant will monitor the process to see
that a representative is appointed.
The consultant will coordinate its efforts with the FHWA and
the USFS and with the following State of Utah agencies:
o
o
o
o
o
Division of Wildlife Resources
Geological and Mineral Survey
Bureau of Air Quality
Bureau .of .Water Quality
Division of State History1
�Coordination efforts will include:
1) acquiring available
information relevant to the project; 2) obtaining appropriate study permits; 3) conducting joint operations related
directly to the project; and 4) providing the above-listed
?tgencies with duplicate copies of data and findings, (devel~ror ~
oped from the tasks described herein) pertinent to their
' \ riff> ~ct..
respective charges. The permits antici ated to be needed to
c:;er~~
construct the project wli
e ldentified.
As of the date of this Agreement, it is not known if payments to agencies may be needed to assist in the project.
Therefore, no effort or costs have been included in this
scope to meet that potential need.
If UDOT determines that
payments are necessary, the scope and fee for this work will
be negotiated as additional work under this Agreement.
Information obtained through coordination efforts will be
incorporated into Task 6, as appropriate.
TASK 6:
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
The task will involve two areas of activity. One is the
meetings of the interdisciplinary study team and the other
is the analysis of environmental resources.
The interdisciplinary study team (see Task 5) will enerally
meet twice each month (for a total of up to 20 meetings r.....--- .
The interdisciplinary earn Wl
provl e input for tne
environmental analysis and make recommendations to the
consultant and UDOT regarding engineering and environmental
issues.
The analysis of environmental re-sources will be a multistep
process.
It will begin with a review of the existing literature for the resources associated with the Logan Canyon
project. ' This search will include literature from city,
county, and state planning agencies, resource management
agencies, universities, and scientific literature.
In addition to the literature search, a field study will be conducted. This will be in with a one- to 2-da reconnaissa c
visit of the ro ect area.

would add input as the need or opportunity
arose.
Review technical memoranda and draft Environmental Report -
�4.
The team members will review the technical
memoranda and will also review the draft
environmental report.
Level of environmental action determinationRudy Lukez asked if this means that a decision will be made during the study on what
the proposed project will be. He also wanted
to know who would make the decision.
It was
explained that the final decision on what
project, if any, will be proposed will be
made by the three cooperating agencies, UDOT,
USFS and FHWA. Prior to the decision on a
project however, a decision must be made on
the class of environmental action (EA or EIS) .
Jack Spence was not sure who would make the
recommendation on the class of environmental
action to the cooperating agencies.
It was
determined that the ID Team would make the
recommendation.
Modifications to the statement of the role of the team
were made.
The revised statement is attached to these
minutes.
ITEM 3 - Level of Documentation Required by NEPA for
Environmental Studies
(
NEPA requirements for environmental studies were reviewed
and discussed. A handout taken from the UDOT publication,
Procedures for Project Development, described the basic categories.
ITEM 4 - Public Involvement Program Outline
Ap outline of the Public Involvement Program had previously
been sent to ID Team members and was discussed at length.
The principle topics of discussion were:
1.
. The terms "projectlf and "study" were both used in
the outline. To be consistent "study" should be
used throughout when describing the ongoing activity.
This will help to alleviate any fears of those who
equate Ifproject" with actual construction.
?.
Jack Spence wanted to know what the rational for
the study was. Lynn Zollinger explained that whenever UDOT went into Logan Canyon, people asked the
question If What is going to happen next?" After
this study is complete UDOT can point to a plan
which will address the transportation needs in the
Canyon through the year 201rr.
�3.
The press release was discussed and Rudy Lukez
suggested that the ID Team be described in it.
John Neil stated that UDOT's community relations
department would release the information as soon
as it was prepared.
4.
During the discussion of Milestone 2, it was recommended that the word "improvements be replaced
with "action" so that both repair and improvements
would be covered. Rudy Lukez asked where traffic
forecasts would be used and how they would be
developed.
It was explained that the permanent
traffic counter at Garden City, and spot traffic
counts, would be used to establish the present
tra f fic load in the Canyon. Population projections prepared by agencies having that responsibility would then be used to project traffic
volume ahead to the year 2010.
It was explained
that there had already been spot traffic counts
taken at two locations, on 2 different days this
past winter and that more would be taken this summer. Jack Spence was not sure that the data
gathered would be sufficient.
He said that one of
the problems with past studies was the lack of
reliable traffic data from which to project future
traffic flow.
Jack asked to see the methodology
and data when it was available.
Rudy Lukez asked
if sampling was an accepted means of gathering
current traffic flow data. Duncan Silver answered
that it was, provided the sample size was large
enough and the sampling techniques were acceptable. He also suggested that the ID Team evaluate
the sampling techniques.
Stan Nuffer said that
information on the methodology and sampling techniques would be ready for the next ID Team meeting.
Rudy Lukez asked if they could be prepared far
enough in advance to allow the team members a
chance to review the information before the next
meeting.
Duncan Silver restated his belief that
the key issue on this · item was the methodology
used to gather the present traffic flow data.
Duncan also wanted to know why a 2-day 10-hour
sample period was selected, a period of this type
would be acceptable for traffic classification but
probably not for counts.
Stan Nuffer said that
information on the methodology and sampling techniques would be available before the next meeting.
ll
5.
Jack Spence expressed concern about having too
many meetings during the summer vlhen many of the
USU students and facility are out of town.
Sheldon
Barker indicated that the schedule of meetings was
�flexible and that something could probably be worked
out.
6.
During the discussion of Milestone 3, Jack Spence
asked if the Public Involvement Program was designed to meet the requirements for an EIS in case
there was a need for one. Tom Haislip explained
that the program was designed with an EIS in mind.
Sheldon Barker also asked the team members for
names of persons or organizations who should be
added to the mailing list. Anyone who has a suggestion should either give Sheldon the information
after the meeting or mail it to him.
ITEM 5 - Schedule of Interdisciplinary Team Meetings
Stan Nuffer presented a schedule of team meetings through
September.
It was suggested that 3:00 p.m. would be a better
time for some team members than 10:00 a.m.
It was agreed
that all meetings scheduled for 10:00 a.m. would be held at
3:00 p.m. instead.
Before the meeting adjourned, Duncan Silver again stated
that he felt the traffic data must be good enough to satisfy
the group before the study proceeded too much farther.
Jim
Naegle stated that standard accepted methods were used during
the gathering of data.
The next scheduled meeting is 3:00 p.m., July 14, 1986, in
the District office in Ogden.

�LEVEL OF DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED BY
NEPA FOR ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES
Projects are classified in accordance with NEPA (National
Environmental Policy Act) categories.
Information on the
project is collected and incorporated in the appropriate
environmental documents. There are three classes of actions
which prescribe the level of documentation required in the
NEPA process:
a.
Class I full EIS (Environmental Impact Statement).
Actions that may significantly affect the environment and require an EIS.
b.
Class II Categorical Exclusions. Actions that do
not individually or cumulatively have a significant
effect on the environment.
c.
Class III with EA's (Environmental Assessments).
Actions in which the significance of the impact on
the environment is not clearly established.
When the project is placed in Class II Categorical Exclusion
or Class III Environmental Assessment, UDOT's established
procedure shall be followed.
Individualized procedure will
be used when the project is placed in Class I Environmental
Impact Statement. Projects in Class II Categorical Exclusion may require, by FHWA (Federal Highway Administration)
directive (See FHWA Memo dated November 21, 1980, Pages 7
& 8), an environmental study (ES). Also, projects in funding category of 4R (Resurface, Reno ate, Rehabilitate and
O' s\o~
Reconstruct), which normally are classed as Categorical
~\~
Exclusion, shall require an Operational Safety Report (See
FHWA Memo dated April 2, 1982, Page 9) to be attached to the
Design Study Report.
The environmental classification and public involvement
decisions, and the task assignments, shall be documented by
memorandum to the Engineer for Location and Environmental
Studies.
Evidence of controvers or unforeseen environmental impacts
may prom t decision makers to redefine r j
t ~ re uest
full EIS. Evide nce of no s Ignif i cant impact will activate
request to the Community Involvement Officer to schedule,
advertise, and hold a public hearing, or give an opportunity
for public hearing.

After reading local newspaper reports of the 1987 Logan Canyon Highway
scoping meetings, I noticed assumptions were made on the part of some groups that
the majority of local residents were opposed to any extensive modifications to the
highway.
In talking with a number of Logan City residents, I received conflicting
reports and strong indications that many Logan City voters did not agree with those
assumptions and that the scoping meetings were not a true barometer of local feelings.
In fact, some felt that the scoping meetings reflected a stacked deck in favor of the
opposing viewpoint.
At the urging of a number of local residents, I decided to find
out for myself by conducting a telephone opinion survey of Logan City voters who
voted in the 1987 elections.
draft of the
ques~ionnaire
Although it wasn't intended to be mailed out, the first
was sent by Cache County Chamber of Commerce leaders to
chamber members and returns were tabulated and results presented to that organization.
After the questionnaire was criticized by the local newspaper(particularly one writer)
as being biased, I contacted a former Utah State University Sociology Professor, Dr.
William DeHart, who had considerable experience with survey questions and format, to
review the questionnaire and assist me in eliminating or reducing possible bias.
I
spent a number of sessions with him in fine tuning the questionnaire before I conducted
the telephone opinion survey.
I also discussed the questionnaire with Dr. Steven
Daniels, formerly of the Department of Forestry at USU, who offered some valuable
suggestions.
It seemed ironic to me that the local newspaper should accuse me of
bias when they, themselves are guilty of incredible one-sided, biased reporting on
the highway issue.
I guess one should always first identify the color of the snake
in the grass before striding too far.
After obtaining a list of Logan City residents
who voted in the 1987 elections, I randomly sampled 208 voters by personally
telephoning them and asking the survey questions.
I chose to personally telephone
participants to reduce bias and to ensure consistency.
I did not solicit any
additional responses although many expressed appreciation for the contact and offered
additional opinions.
Of those who offered additional opinions, I asked if they had
attended any of the Logan Canyon Highway scoping meetings.
affirmative.
Their reasons for not attending ranged from "I don't like to argue"
to "a lack of time" or "conflict in schedule".
would listen anyway".
syndrome".
Not one answered in the
Some were concerned that "no one
I consider this a clear example of "the silent majority
In retrospect, they have only themselves to blame if the opposing
viewpoint receives credibility.
My feeling is that this group of people does not
write letters to the editor, tends to avoid controversy and does not like to attend
meetings, yet many have strong opinions about important issues and appear to exercise
their voting privilege.
Perhaps that's why politicians who consistently campaign
door-to-door and contact this group of people tend to get elected.
�-2Some of the more often expressed comments included:
*
I would like to see the road widened to include shoulders so that a vehicle
could be stopped completely off the road in the event of an emergency(flat tire,
stalled vehicle, etc.). This is especially a problem in the middle section of the
canyon between Right Hand Fork and Ricks Springs where shoulders are extremely
narrow or nonexistent. To increase enforcement of the current speed limit would
create a safety hazard unless shoulders were widened to permit a vehicle to stop
completely off the road.
*
Straightening some curves in the middle section of the canyon would not necessarily
increase speed but would contribute to a more even speed and flow of traffic.
*
As important as the environment is, there are other issues of equal or greater
importance including highway safety, snow removal, access to recreation areas
(Beaver Mountain, Jackson Hole, Yellowstone Park, Bear Lake, etc.), maximum
utilization of the canyon, emergency vehicle and hospital access for Bear Lake
Valley residents, and economic development potential by providing Bear Lake Valley
residents and beyond better access to local merchants.
*
There have been enough studies of Logan Canyon Highway. The money spent could be
better utilized in making needed modifications. According to UDOT engineers, there
have been two environmental studies of the highway since 1975 modifications were
completed. Approximately $50,000 was funded in 1978 to conduct an environmental
assessment to continue modifications from Right Hand Fork to Ricks Springs. The
current study, started in 1986, is a full environmental impact statement and has
cost approximately $620,000 to this point. Recently, an additional $86,000 was
appropriated to finish the study. More money will have to be allocated to
publish the final document. It's interesting to note that the reconstruction of
a two-lane highway based on 1975 dollars would cost about $500,000/mile and about
$l,OOO,OOO/mile using 1988 dollars. These figures are according to the March 88
issue of Engineering News Record(ENR). According to UDOT, the Summer average daily
traffic(ADT)in the canyon is about 3500 vehicles and peaks at about 500 vehicles
per hour. The Winter ADT is about 1800 vehicles.
*
I'm tired of a few pseudoexperts using strong-arm tactics to impose their will
upon the majority. We have the organization and the structure in-place in the
form of unOT and their consultants to consider all issues including the
environment and highway safety and design. Let's use the existing structure and
rely on the real experts who are being paid out of tax dollars and get out of their
way so they can do their job.
I took the time to examine the background and
expertise of the UDOT personnel assigned to the Logan Canyon Highway project.
Everyone of them have significant training and experience in environmental
planning and highway safety and design.
*
Acceleration and deceleration lanes would be useful at major campgrounds and access
roads such as Spring Hollow, Malibu/Guinavah, Temple Fork, Right Hand Fork, Wood
Camp, etc.
*
All you need to do is drive Logan Canyon and you're immediately brought to the
reality of the hazards and of taking your life in your own hands.
*
Let's fix the highway so it's safe to drive and quit worrying about having to
transplant a few flowers and trees. While a four-lane highway through Logan
Canyon is neither appropriate nor necessary, extensive modifications are needed.
�-3-
*
Although a minority, Cache Valley groups opposed to highway modifications are a
well organized and extremely vocal coalition. They are living proof that the
squeeky wheel gets the grease. But in the same vein, let's not forget that the
empty wagon rattles the most.
I approached the CPA firm of Hancey, Jones and Wright and asked if they would
compile the statistical information for the survey.
They offered to do that as a
public service and are here today to make the presentation to the Municipal Council.
I also contacted Dan Jones who explained that he samples about 6% in his opinion polls
with excellent results.
I sampled about 6% of the population in my opinion survey.
With that report, I'd like to ask Gary Jones and Carl Law of Hancey, Jones and
Wright to give the summary report of the survey.

�Volume II
PRIORITY LISTINGS
District 1
1986
Research and Development Unit
Utah Department of Transportation
�INTRODUCTION
Volume II of the state-wide pavement survey prioritizes highway
sections from the worst to the best for ride, cracking, rutting, structural
adequacy, friction index and an overall condition rating.
These priority listings are intended as a tool to be used in the
selection and programming of rehabilitation and maintenance activities.
Where data concerning the condition of a specific section is needed,
reference should be made to the Detailed Data Sheets in Volume I.
Final rehabilitation decisions obviously should not be made strictly
on the basis of these listings.
More detailed analysis should be done to
accurately select a rehabilitation strategy.
More frequent deflection
testing (every 0.1 mile) should be requested where appropriate, and a more
detailed distress analysis may be necessary.
The following discussions outline the intended use of each printout,
• and provides an example of each.
�RIDEABILITY RANKINGS
Title:
AVERAGE RI
Description:
Sections are prioritized (from worst to best) by the
average of the Rideability Indexes*(RI) measured for
each mile.
(Figure lA)
Use:
The sections near the top of this listing are the
poorest riding sections based on average values.
Title:
MINIMUM RI
Description:
Sections are prioritized by the mlnlmum RI value
measured within the section.
(Figure lB)
Use:
Identifies sections containing a shortt poor riding
area that needs correction t but may be adequate based
on the Average RI listing.
Title:
RI FAILURES
Description:
Lists sections where the RI has reached th Terminal
Serviceability Index (TSI).
(Figure 1C)
Use:
These sections have reached the minimum allowable
rideabilitYt and should be considered for improvement.
*Note:
RI Range

4.4 to 5.0
3.6 to 4.3
2.B to 3.5

Title:
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
Description:
Sections are prioritized by the structural index* which
is related to the number of years remaining prior to
fatigue failure. (Figure 4)
Use:
The sections with structural indexes below 2.0 are very
near fatigue failure, or have already cracked in the
wheel paths. Preventive rehabilitation could prevent
the development of fatigue cracking if it has not
occurred.
*Note -
The structural index is based on years to fatigue failure
as follows:

�SURFACE FRICTION R4NKINGS
. Title:
FRICTION AVERAGE
Description:
Sections are prioritized by the average friction index
measured at each milepost. (Figure SA)
Use:
Pavements that are identified with a friction number below
35 should be programmed for a surface seal, and "Slippery
When Wet" signs should be posted until the work can be done.
Friction numbers between 35 and 45 are considered to be
marginal, and above 45 are generally adequate. Pavements
with significant rutting can cause hydroplaning during wet
weather, which could compound skidding problems when combined
with a low friction number.
Title:
FRICTION MINIMUM
Description:
Sections are prioritized by the mlnlmum friction index
measured within the section. (Figure 5B)
Use:
Identifies sections containing a short, slippery area
that needs correction, but may be adequate based on the
Friction Average listing.

Title:
FINAL
Description:
Sections are prioritized by the Final Index* which is related
to the structural index, the distress index and the average
R.I. The final index is weighted more heavily toward the
structural index where high truck traffic exists. and weights
theR.!. value roore heavily where a high ADT (see definitions)
is present. (Figure 6)
Use :
This listing basically identifies the worst overall sections.
It also can be used to obtain a genera' indication of the
type of rehabilitation (or maintenance) activity which may
be needed, since the technique selected should correct all
of the existing deficiencies. The final index is intended for
prioritization only, and should not be used in any other way
since it does not represent any single pavement condition.
*Note -

ITEM l--REVIEW OF MINUTES
The minutes of the May 18 meeting were not reviewed.
GENERAL DISCUSSION
The first item of business discussed was a memorandum to the
ID Team from "Conservation Representatives" appearing under
the letterhead of the Citizens for the Protection of Logan
Canyon. The memorandum was requested to be entered into the
minutes of the meeting and was discussed at length as follo~vs :
1.
Issues Identification--The main concern was that a list
of issues, concerns, or alternatives developed from the
scoping process has not yet been presented to the ID
Team.
Response--Summaries of the two scoping meetings and a
partial summary of the written comments have been distributed previously. A tabular summary of the scoping
meetings and written responses was distributed during
the meeting; it will be used to provide a technical
memorandum summarizing the scoping process.
2.
Chapter 8, Alternatives--The main concern was that the
various alternatives presented in Chapter 8 are not
properly analyzed with regard to possible impacts and
mitigations as presented in other technical memoranda
and reports.
2
�Response--Chapter 8 as submitted was 'a description of
the alternatives, and was not intended to be the complete presentation of impacts and mitigation. Any
environmental conclusions included in the chapter were
very general and it was agreed in the later detailed
discussion of Chapter 8 to delete the summary sections,
and let Chapter 8 stand as a description of the alternatives only.
3.
Organization of Material From CH2M HILL--The main concern was how the technical memorandums and reports are
to be used in an EIS.
Response--From the beginning of the study, the T.M.s
have been used as a means to organize and document the
data and findings in a logical manner. The organization of the T.M.s has generally followed the outline
presented at the December 22, 1986, ID meeting, and are
to be used as resources for preparation of the DEIS.
Since the T.M.s as a whole are much more voluminous
than can be accommodated in a DEIS, the information is
to be summarized, rearranged, and edited into the DEIS.
A preliminary outline of the DEIS was shown on the
blackboard by Larry Martin. The essential elements of
that outline will be included in the format for the
DEIS as follows:

4.
Study Timetable--The main concern was that the evaluation of alternatives based on impactsi mitigation and
issues is being pushed through.
Response--It appears that this concern was due largely
to the misconception by some ID Team members that Chapter 8 of the transportation plan T.M.s represented the
alternative analysis which as explained above, it does
not. The ID Team will have the opportunity to review
the sections of the DEIS outlined above.
4
�5.
Spot Improvements Alternative--The main concern was the
the spot improvements alternatives was expanded to
include more actions.
Response--The spot improvements outlined in Chapter 8
responded to the comments received in the scoping process from a wide range of perspectives, and need to be
considered at this point in the study. Each spot
improvement will be evaluated on its own merits, along
with the environmental consequences, after which the
preferred group of spot improvements will be selected.
ITEM 2--DISCUSSION OF CHAPTER 8 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Detailed discussion of Chapter 8, the Alternatives Technical
Memorandum, resulted in a number of wording changes that
were suggested and will be incorporated into the chapter.
The most significant suggestion was to eliminate value
judgements and conclusions from this chapter and leave it as
a description of the alternatives only.
It was also suggested to take out the references to level of service and
discuss them in a separate section.
ITEM 3--AIR QUALITY TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
John Neil briefly reviewed the Air Quality Technical Memorandum. The only comment was on the basis for the average
running speed used in Table 2. The low average running
speeds were used because they are considered the worst case.
Using these criteria showed no significant air quality
problem.
ITEM 4--LAND USE AND RECREATION TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
A number of suggestions on wording clarifications and corrections to maps and figures were made.
ITEM 5--S0CIOECONOMIC TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
General comment that some sections seemed biased toward the
Rich County needs. More mention of the Cache County/Logan
users socioeconomic use of the Canyon needs to be made.
ITEM 6--TERRESTRIAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Limited time was available for discussion of this memorandum.
Reference to Oak Brush and Pinion juniper need to
be removed.
ITEM 7--AQUATIC RESOURCES TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
General comment was that this Technical Memorandum was in
good shape.
Suggested eliminating reference to China Row
Creek and Ricks Spring as spawning tributaries. Bunch Grass
5
�Creek and White Pine Creek are considered spawning tributaries and should be mentioned.
The value of fishing needs
to be included in the Socioeconomic Technical Memorandum.
ITEM 8--VISUAL TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Time was not available for discussion.

~UHMARY FACT SnEET
nIGHWAY U.S. 89 - LOGAN CANYON STUDY
NOVEMBER 1986
Utah Department of Transportation (UOOT)
CII2M IIILL Engineering Consultants
INTRODUCTION
UDOT has contracted with CH2M HILL for a study of US-89 in
Logan Canyon. The objective of the study is to evaluate
transportation needs, develop improvement alternatives and
to conduct an environmental evaluation of the alternative
concepts .
Findings of each step of this study will be
reported to the public through a public involvement program,
of which this fact sheet is a part. Previously circulated
information about this study is available at the Logan
Public Library, Utah State University Library and Valley
Engineering in Logan; U.S. Forest Service in Ogden; and CH2M
HILL and UOOT offices in Salt Lake City.
The purpose of this fact sheet is to report the preliminary
findings of the first task of the study. A report on the
preliminary identification of public concerns/issues regarding
potential improvements to U.S. Highway 89 in Logan Canyon
from Right Hand Fork east to Garden City is also included.
Questions about the following information or the project in
general may also be directed to Gale Larson, Valley Engineering, in Logan at 753-0153 or Cliff Forsgren, CH2M HILL, in
Salt Lake City at 363-0200.
Additionally, ~anual counts were taken at several points
within the canyon during 1986 to provide .ore detailed characteristics of the traffic flow.
Table 1 ahows the annual
average vehicles per day (AnT) and su~er average vehicles
per day on the road. Figure 1 shows the distribution of
traffic during the year, and Figure 2 shows the distribution
during the week.

RECORDED
The first task of the study, the determination of transportation needs on Highway 89 through the canyon, was to identify
existing roadway conditions; examine accident records for
the road; identify maintenance problems; identify traffic
volumes and characteristics; project future volumes; and
determine road capacity. The conclusions drawn from analyzing
this information include the location and nature of specific
highway safety hazards; the capability of the existing road
to carry present and future traffic volumes; and what problems exist that may keep the highway from functioning at a
reasonable operational level. This information will be the
basis for the second task of the study, the development of
alternative improvements, if improvements are found to be
needed.

EXISTING ROADWAY CONDITIONS
Design conditions of the road that affect traffic flow include cross-section elements, roadway curvature, roadway
gradient, and the width of and access to the highway rightof-way. These are generally referred to as roadway geometrics.
Data for cross-section elements show the road section between
Right Fork and Tony Grove as being well below standard in
terms of width of traffic lanes, shoulders, surfacing slopes,
and ditches.
The other sections, while below standard, are
not as seriously so.
Roadway curvature results in limited visibility and reduced
speeds.
The curves of each road section were categorized by
their recommended speed. The section from Right Fork to
Tony Grove ranked highest in the number of curves and in
their severity, followed by the section from the Cache-Rich
County line to Garden City. Gradient describes how fast a
highway climbs or descends in elevation. The section from
Tony Grove to Garden City has gradients of 6 to 7 percent
over 31 percent of its distance.
The majority of the road
from Logan to Tony Grove has gradients from 0 to 3 percent.

SAFETY ANALYSIS
10 . 5
a..
The highway has been examined to identify specific locations,
or general conditions which may be contributing to traffic
accidents in the Canyon. To do this, the consultant examined
the number, type and location of accidents in the study section
from 1980 thrugh 1985. The hgihway was divided into 374 sections of 0.10 mile each. The average number of accidents
per year for each section were then computed. Those sections
with significantly higher than average accident rates (accidents/
year) are being considered for safety related improvements.
There are 16 sections in this category.

MAINTENANCE FACTORS
Keeping the road open in winter is the single greatest maintenance problem faced in Logan Canyon.
In the narrower parts
of the canyon, there is nowhere to push the snow but into
the river.
Where snow can be plowed to only one side of the
road, plows must move across both traffic lanes. This creates
a potential safety hazard, particularly when coupled with
low visibility due to curves and snow. Winds and steep slopes
in the canyon also create maintenance problems with drifting
and slides.
Some flooding along the road occurs occasionally
during spring runoff.
TRAFFIC VOLUMES, CHARACTERISTICS, AND PROJECTIONS
Traffic volumes for Logan Canyon were obtain ed from the permanent counting station located at Card Ranger ~tation from
1974 to 1983, and just west of Garden City from 1983 on.

These figures show that the road is heavily travelled in
summer (53.1 percent of the total from June through August)
and on weekends (53 percent of the total on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays). This indicates orientation of the road
to recreational traffic.

Table 2 shows the variation in traffic volume over the entire
project route.
It can be seen that in winter, counts at the
permanent station near the east end of the route were less
than half the volumes at the west end of the route (34 percent and 44 percent). This indicates that there is/are substantial traffic generators (origins/destinations) within
the canyon - Beaver Mountain ski area, cross-country skiing,
snow mobiling and other winter recreation destinations.
The
summer volumes also show lower volumes on the east end than
on the west end of the route, (81 percent and 79 percent).
Since the summer time east end volumes are closer to west
end volumes than in winter, this suggests that recreation
within the canyon is less of a traffic generator in summer
than in winter. Most summer traffic in the Canyon is
through traffic.
Table 3 gives the percentage composition of tra!fic by vehicle
type at three counting stations. Passenger cars and light
trucks can be grouped together since their operation is
similar. The relatively high percentage of recreation
vehicles and trucks combined have significant consequences
for a two-lane road with many locations of limited sightdistance for passing and considerable road gradient (see
Roadway Conditions).

Because of economic and other considerations, highways are
normally not designed to accommodate the highest hours of
traffic volume during the year, which .ay happen infrequently,
but instead are designed for a lower volume hour that occurs
.ore often.
UDOT nor.ally uses the 30th highest hourly volume
for the design hour volume (DIN). As is shown in Figure J,
the 30th highest volume hour for this study road segment is
consistent with hourly volumes immediately above and below
it, so little would be gained by choosing a different hourly
volume for the DIiV. The 30th highest hourly volume, about
14 percent of the average summer traffic, will therefore he
used as the hourly volume for which any improvements will be
designed.

CAPACITY ANALYSIS
".
Highway capacity analysis is the estimation of the maximum
amount of traffic that can be carried by a given length of
highway at various operational qualities. Six categories of
road operational quality are defined as Levels of Service
(LOS) "A" through "F", "A" being the best operational conditions, F being the worst. Criteria for levels of service
address the freedom to move along a roadway without interference from other vehicles. Once estimated; these road
capacities can be compared with existing and projected
traffic volumes to determine the current and future ability
of the road to carry the traffic.
2S
The methodology used to analyze the traffic capacity of
U.S. 89 through the canyon is published in the Transportation Research Board report, "Highway Capacity Manual, Special
Report 209." A "general terrain" methodology, which is based

on average terrain, geOMetrics and traffic conditions, vas
applied to the highway study aection. For conditions above
or below the average of these elements, the capacity was
increased or decreased.
Under ideal operational conditions,
capacity for a two-lane road is 2,800 vehicles per hour (vph).
The results of the analysis are given in Table 4.

Various techniques are used to project future traffic volumes.
All techniques rely on certain assumptions to provide the
basis of the forecast.
This study selected a past trends
technique, which assumes that the trend established by past
changes in traffic volume will generally continue into the
future.
Forecasts prepared using this method show an
increase in summer traffic volume of approximately
2 percent. The summer ADT in the year 2010 is projected to
be approximately 5800, a 75 percent increase over the
present.
Figure 4 shows that these figures compare very
favorably to projections based on the current baseline
population projections for the Wasatch Front and Bear River
areas developed by the State of Utah. These areas are projected to experience population increases averaging 1.95 percent compounded annually.
Using a projected annual growth
rate of 1.95 percent, the ADT in Logan Canyon at the Card
Guard Station would increase from 3,276 vehicles per day in
1980 to 5,847 vehicles per day in 2010. A summer ADT of
5,800 will therefore be used as the projected ADT for this
study.
386
D
U.S. 89 LOGAN CANYON
By comparing these capacities with the selected design hour
volume (DIN) based on present summer traffic volumes of
between 370 and 425 vehicles per hour (vph) and a OHV based
on projected summer traffic volumes of 545 to 627 vph, it
can be seen in Table 5 that the road is currently operating
during the summer at Level of Service D. By 2005, summer
operational conditions will have deteriorated in all segments
of the road to Level of Service E. This means that the road
is currently over its capacity to carry its traffic without
substantial delays occurring 75 percent or more of the time.
With future traffic volumes, delays on the road can be expected more than 75 percent of the time.
CONCLUSIONS ABOUT TRANSPORTATION NEEDS
An examination of highway characteristics for the study section
of road suggests that the high number of curves resulting in
limited visibility, which prevents passing, and substandard
lane and shoulder widths are the greatest cause of the capacity
problem. The large proportion of recreational vehicles and
other slower vehicles of the total traffic volume is also a
significant contributor to the problem that may increase in
the future.
If it is desirable to accommodate present and projected
vehicle loads in Logan Canyon through the year 2010 at a
level of service higher than "OW or WE," it will be necessary to improve problem areas of the roadway in some manner.
This can best be accomplished by increasing passing opportunities and widening traffic lanes and shoulders, thus
helping to prevent the formation of vehicle platoons and
allowing traffic to move more freely through the canyon.

PRELIMINARY REPORT ON ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES AND CONCERNS
On August 26, the environmental and engineering staff of
CH2M HILL working on the Logan Canyon project toured the
Highway 89 study section with representatives of various
local enviro~ntal groups and the U.S. Forest Service. The
purpose of the tour was for the engineering consultant to
gain a preliminary understanding of what environmental issues
and concerns need to be considered in the development of
improvement plans for the canyon.
The following s\l~ary of the findings is preliminary because
other opportunit1es for public input regardi.ng environmental
~oncerns will occur prior to the selection of the preferred
~mprovement alternatives and prior to the environmental analysis of the project. Nevertheless, it is important for the
consultant to be aware, prior to any development of improvement alternatives, what are considered to be the most important and sensitive environmental resources of the canyon.
During the tour, it was suggested by some present that the
Canyon should be treated as a recreational corridor (a destination) rather than as a transportation link (a conduit
for traffic). Recreational use of the corridor should be
given priority over transportation use whenever a decision
involving trade-offs is to be made in the study. Recreational
use . d~a~s with visual resources, fishery habitat, recreational
fac11~t1es, vegetation, and possibly other environmental
elements.
It was also pointed out that a special ambience exists in
the lower part of the study route (Right Fork to below Lower
Twin Bridge), created by the narrm" canyon walls, sheer rock
cliffs, and tree canopy. Although the existing highway has
been constructed through the canyon, other signs of human
alteration are minimal. A number of specific elements that
contribute to this overall ambience were identified.
o
Visual - . concern regarding road cuts and fills;
destruct~on of focal points and existing fields of
v~ew; introduction of artificial features; imposit10n of human alterations upon a relatively natura).
setting
o
Recreation - protection of campgrounds, picnic
areas and features of interest (springs, caves,
etc.); provision of necessary facilities at interest points (parking, restrooms, etc.); bicycle
safety; protection of fisheries
•
o
River Protection - as a visual element; as a water
body; as fishery habitat; as a recreational resource
The tour progressed through the canyon from Logan to Bear
Lake viewpoint w~t~ stops a~ong the way to address specific
concerns ~t sens~t1ve locat~ons where road improvements were
proposed 1n the past. The area from Right Fork to Tony Grove,
the summit, and the Bear Lake viewpoint are the locations on
the route that are most sensitive.
Concern was cited that slopes in the lower canyon are so
steep that cuts for the purpose of road widening can result
in serious slope instability and slides. Avalanches can
also be a problem in winter.
Installation of guardrails in
some places on the road has decreased site distance, cutting
utilization of the few good passing locations.
In other
locations, their installation has eliminated views of the
river.
As additional concerns and issues relating to possible road
improvements in the canyon become identified, they will be
reported in project fact sheets, press releases, and public
meetings.

MEMORANDUM
TO: ID TEAM MEMBERS
DATE:
March 30,1987
FROM: Cliff Forsgren
SUBJECT: Logan Canyon Traffic Forecasts
Over the past several months there have been a number of
iterations made in attempting to establish a reasonable
forecast of traffic through the year 2010.
Exponential and
linear models and population trends have been used.
with varying results.
Each
Until now all estimates of future
traffic flow have been developed using fairly recent data ,
, (1973 to 1985).
Attempts to use past trends as a basis for
predicting future traffic volume's have not been completely
satisfactory.
The wide scatter in the data has resulted
numbers that are difficult to Justify from a statistical
standpoint.
Estimating future traffic volumes based upon
proJected population trends is often considered to be a more
acceptable
method~
after a relationship between population
increase and traffic flow has been established.
The State Office of Planning and Budget has provided us
with the most recent (still unofficial) population forecasts
for Northern Utah (attachment 1).
They have also provided
population data, by county, from 1940 through 1985
<attachment 2).
Using this data we have tabulated the
�population trend for northern Utah <attachment 3).
John Neil
has also gone through the UOOT archives and obtained annual
traffic data in Logan Canyon from 1937 through 1985
<attachment 4).
Prior to 1973 when the permanent counter was
installed at Card Guard Station r
apparently based upon 7
day~
traffic volumes were
24 hour counts taken quarterly.
The annual ADT in the Middle Canyon (assumed at Card Guard
Station) has been tabulated and a linear plot fit to the
points <attachment 5).
Using the long term population trend and the long term
traffic trend a relationship was established between the two
<attachment 6) and future traffic volumes estimated in each
section o£ the Canyon
(attachment 7).
Past IO team discussions have indicated that it might be
preferable to show a spread in the proJected traffic volume
rather than trying to settle on a single number.
We should
compare this information with the forecasts prepared using
the more recent data to determine which will give us the more
reliable range o£ proJected tra££ic volumes.

LOGAN CANYON ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING
November 17, 1986
(
Attendance:
Cliff Forsgren, CH2M HILL
Fred LaBar, USFS
Clark Ostergarrd, USFS
Gale Larson, Valley Engineering
Duncan Silver, FHWA
John Neil, UDOT
Lynn Zollinger, UDOT
Jim Naegle, UDOT
Steve Flint, Audubon Assoc.
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Two typographical errors were identified and Mark Shaw
pointed out that he was in attendance at the last meeting,
but was left off of the attendance list for the minutes.
Item 2 - Alternate Route Technical Memo
John Neil led the discussion of this item.
There was some
confusion about how the alternatives were defined.
The text
did not agree with the figure.
It was determined that the
most logical alternative was a combination of Alternate A
and Alternate B.
If an alternate route through Blacksmith
Fork Canyon were to be considered, a route from Hyrum to
Laketown through Hardware Ranch and Cottonwood Canyon would
appear to have the most promise.
It was agreed that the study of alternate routes should be
postponed until the fu~l transportation potential of Logan
Canyon (consistent with environmental constraints) was developed. John Neil made the motion to accept the memo, with
the alterations made in the meeting, and its recommendations.
Gale Larson seconded the motion and the voting was unanimous.
John will modify the memo to reflect the teams comments.
Item 3 - Public Involvement Summary Memorandum
Cliff Forsgren led the discussion of the memo which had been
prepared to summarize the public involvement program to date.
Ducan Silver suggested that the verbal comments received
during public meetings be summarized also.
Stan Nuffer asked
what sort of documentation the Forest Service would need
in order to be satisfied that there had been adequate public
participation. Fred LaBar said that the results of the
scoping meetings would be required before the Forest Service
1
�(
could do much to evaluate the progress of a public participation program.
Clark Ostergarrd suggested that there be some provision in
the memo to identify those comments directed towards preserving threatened and endangered species and maintaining
the River. Duncan Silver pointed out that there were not a
lot of differences in some of the column headings, for example
the two columns dealing with traffic flow ("Flow is Problem"
and "Improve Flow") and the two columns dealing with safety.
He also suggested showing the total number of responses in
each column.
Item 4 - Public Involvement/Scoping Meetings
Duncan Silver asked for a status report on the technical
memorandums which have been prepared to date. The status
report should indicate if they have been finaled and
approved. This report will be prepared for the next
meeting.
John Neil asked if a notice of intent was required for a
scoping meeting.
If a notice of intent is required, it
should be prepared as soon as possible if a meeting is to be
held in early January.
Stan will report to the team at the
next meeting on what the legal requirements are for notification of a scoping meeting.
Jim Naegle suggested holding the information sheet on "Issues
and Concerns" until after the scoping meetings. Steve Flint
pointed out some items that needed attention on the fact
sheet that had already been mailed. Table 1 needed some
clarification on how averages were determined during periods
when the counter was not in service and Table 2 had a mislabled footnote.
Steve was also concerned that some people
would not understand that a level of service D or E was not
for low or even average flow conditions, but represented
some percentage of time when flows were above the projected
average. More explanation of this concept will be included
in the next fact sheet.
Item 5 - Review of Existing Roadside Parking
Stan Nuffer presented an inventory of existing roadside
parking areas.
The parking areas were identified by milepost
and included both planned parking and "\vide spots" which
appeared to have been used for parking. This list of parking
areas was compiled in the summer and mayor may not represent
winter parking patterns. Fred LaBar said that the Forest
Service has an inventory of winter parking areas which he
will provide to the team members.
2
�(
Clark Ostergarrd said that it would be important to know
whether the parking areas were near the recreational feature
and which side of the road, relative to the River, they were
on. There are also areas that the Forest Service considers
problem areas and would just as soon not have parking nearby.
When alternates are developed, the information on location
of existing parking and need for planned parking will be
used to define the alternates.
ITEM 5 - Areas Meeting Criteria For Climbing Lanes
Stan Nuffer presented the results of an analysis of the need
for climbing lanes in the Canyon. AASHTO standards were
used as the evaluation criteria.
If AASHTO standards are
met, there would be a climbing lane the entire length of the
Canyon.
There was some discussion on the improvement in LOS that
might be expected with the placement of new climbing lanes.
Lynn Zollinger asked if there was anything in the standards
that addresseed the distance between the lanes. Jim Naegle
indicated that he thought that was dictated by the
conditions at the particular site.
(
Duncan Silver pointed out that climbing lanes are used to
improve the LOS and minimize speed reduction on upgrades.
If a climbing lane were constructed, the LOS would be raised
to C in that particular stretch of road.
However, when the
end of the lane was reached, the LOS would go back to D or
E.
It does not appear that the capacity problem can be
solved for the entire Canyon and that minimizing the speed
reduction where possible should be the priority.
Stan will
prepare a speed profile for the Canyon.
It was concluded that the team members do not believe that
LOS C can be attained through the entire Canyon.
If it were
possible to construct a climbing lane everywhere the climbing
lane criteria were met, LOS C would be possible, however
there are places where a third lane is unacceptable.
ITEM 7 - Introduction of Layout of Roadway Widening and
Alignment Improvement Component
Stan Nuffer discussed the widening and straightening component that will eventually be used, along with other components, to define alternatives. Lynn Zollinger asked if the
requirements for vertical sight distance had been checked.
Stan indicated that it was underway.

MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING
October 6, 1986
Attendance:
Stan Nuffer, CH2M HILL
John D'Amico, CH2M HILL

Sherril Pitkin, CH2M HILL
Fred LaBar, USFS
Mark Shaw, USFS
Clark Ostergard, USFS

Bruce Swenson, UDOT
Jack Spence
Steve Flint
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Steve Flint asked that in all tech memo's and minutes, traffic
volumes be stated as either winter, summer or annual.
Item 2 - Review of Public Information Meeting
f
Stan Nuffer led the discussion on the public information
meeting. Steve Flint pointed out that the distance from
Garden City to Montelier, Idaho was 31 miles and the distance between Logan and "
Garden City is 40 plus miles.
Steve
also indicated that he had spoken with people in the emergency room at the Logan Hospital and they said that there
were medical services available in Montpelier and that the
decision _to come to Logan for medical treatment was a personal one. Steve was concerned that there may have been ~ arl
impression created at the meeting that there were no medical
services in Montpelier. Noone at the meeting was certain
just what services were available in Montpelier~
It was
generally concluded that since Logan is a regional medical
facility and has a greater range of services and specialists
than the other communities in the general area, Logan would
be a more desireable place to go for medical attention.
1
There was also a question about an increase in RV traffic in
the Canyon. RV traffic is expected to increase at the same
rate as the overall traffic volume. There has been nothing
to indicate that the percentage of RV traffic will increase.
1
�(
Jim Naegel mentioned that during the public meeting Rudy
Lukez had said that he had traffic flow data dating back to
the 1930's. Jim wondered why that information had not been
brought to the ID Team and if Rudy wanted it considered as
part of this study. No one in attendance was certain what
Rudy wanted to do with the data.
There was some discussion on the problem with the accident
rate calculations obtained from UDOT. Jack Spence and Steve
Flint expressed concern that the safety analysis may not be
as good as it might be because of uncertain data. After
some discussion it was decided that a letter would be written to the appropriate UDOT officials pointing out the calculation problems and the fear that there may be problems
with the data itself. Cliff Forsgren will write the letter.
Further discussion of safety led to the conclusion that those
O.Ol-mile highway sections which appeared to have a greater
number of accidents/year (at 80 percent confidence) than the
average for the Canyon would be included in the alternative
development phase.
If during the alternative development
phase it was determined that more information was needed on
a specific site, the original accident reports for that site
would be examined.
Item 3 - Visual Considerations Presentation by Clark Ostergard
Clark Ostergard made a presentation which explained the Forest
Services' approach to classifying visual aspects and impacts
of a proposed project.
In addition to a written presentation,
there were slides illustrating the important features of the
visual classification system. Clark also had some references
on designing and/or mitigating visual impacts on scenic highways. Clark has also taken the time to classify the roadway
between Right Hand Fork and Ricks Springs. This information
• will be extremely helpful as alternatives are developed and
evaluated.
Fred LaBar also discussed the Forest Plan, in particular
Logan Canyon. Fred pointed out the provision for classifica~
tion of the highway in Logan Canyon as a "scenic highway".
f:l
John D' Amico asked if the "scenic highway" designation would ~ t-A~f'/ .
increase traffic in the Canyon. Fred said that it might,
· v"( t#.JJ
especially if the Forest Service could increase its camping
J ~~\~
facilities.
\5'"
Item 4 - Garden City Meeting
Gale Larson said that there was a lot of interest in a meeting in Garden City. A meeting was scheduled for Monday,
' November 3, 1986 at 7:30 p.m. in Garden City.

LOGAN CANYON
Minutes of ID Team Meeting
July 28, 1986
Attendance:
Clark Ostergaard - USFS
Fred LaBar - USFS
Todd Weston - UDOT
Stan Nuffer - CH2M HILL
John D'Amico - CH2M HILL
Cliff Forsgren - CH2M HILL
Bill Helm - Unattached
Rudy Lukez - Sierra Club
Howard Richardson - UDOT
John Neil - UDOT
ITEM 1 - REVIEW OF MINUTES
The minutes were reviewed.
There was some confusion about
the sources of additional names for the mailing list which
were listed in the minutes.
It was noted that Fred LaBar
and Bill Helm had mailed names and not turned them in at the
last meeting.
There was no other discussion on the minutes.
ITEM 2 - TFAFFIC COUNT DATA
The sources of traffic data were discussed.
Permanent
stations on US 89-91 at Webster Junction, on US 89 at Card
Guard Station in Logan Canyon (later moved to Garden City),
and on US 89 north of Garden City are being used in the
preparation of the traffic forecast.
ITEM 3 - PRESENTATION OF PROPOSED TPAFFIC FORECAST
A past trends based forecast had been prepared using a least
squares best fit linear function.
This approach produced an
annual increase in ADT which was less than one percent, a
rate which was felt to be low. The Utah State, Office of
Planning and Budget was prepared its forecast of economic
and population growth through the year 2010.
The overall
rate of population increase for northern Utah was approximately 2 percent.
If traffic in Logan Canyon were to increase at the same rate as the population, the summer ADT in
Logan Canyon would reach approximately 6,000 vehicles per
day in 2,010. Supporting data for this forecast is available
and will be presented at the next ID Team (Team) meeting.
There was also some Qlscussion on the traffic classification
counts.
The summer counts will begin on July 29, 1987. The
counts will include a classification for recreational vehicles
and record turning movements.
�ITEM 4 - DISCUSSION OF HIGHWAY CAPACITY AND LEVEL OF SERVICE
DETERMINATION
The roadway will be evaluated on the basis of the level of
service which is possible at a given traffic volume.
The
Transportation Research Board describes a procedure for establishing levels of service (A through E) for rural roads.
Copies of portions of the procedure description were distributed to team members to help them become familiar with
the level of service concept. There was some discussion on
which level of service would be planned for in the Canyon.
UDOT would like to plan for a "C" level, but the actual level
of service used will be determined by the Team.
ITEM 5 - REVIEW OF ACCIDENT DATA
The accident data for 6 years (1980 - 1985) has been
tabulated using a UDOT computer program.
The UDOT program
was used because the program performs the types of analysis
required for roadways and the accident data base was already
on the UDOT computer. The computer runs had only recently
been completed and there had not been sufficient time to
review the results.
Hopefully this will be completed by the
next meeting.
ITEM 6 - UPDATE ON STATUS OF BASE MAP PREPARATION
(
An example of the base maps was shown to the
of the set will be available, when they have
to Team members who wish to have one.
Clark
requested a set to get started on the visual
Team. Copies
been completed,
Ostergaard
survey.
MISCELLANEOUS
The approved forest plan has a section on Logan Canyon which
may be of · interest to Team members.
Clark Ostergaard will
bring a number of copies of that section to the next meeting.

Item 1 - Review of Minutes
A new name was added to the mailing list:
Randy Nielsen, Utah Wildlife Federation
160 Layton Drive
Salt Lake City, Utah 84115
(draft copy of the study only)
Item i-Review of Draft Traffic Tech Memo
The draft of the traffic forecast technical memorandum was
discussed.
Those committee members who had received the
memo had not had sufficient time to thoroughly review the
information it contained so the discussion was fairly
general.
Jack Spence thought that all of the data points needed to be
plotted and that the standard deviation and correlation coefficient should be shown also. Duncan Silver asked about
the design hour volume (DHV) and the directional split of
the traffic.
If the DHV and directional split are to be addressed in the capacity/level of service analysis, it should
be stated in this technical memorandum so that readers would
know where to find that information. Duncan also suggested
plotting the 100 highest hour volumes to see if 30th highest
hour (which is presently being used by UDOT), is the best
one to use as the basis for the DHV. Written comments on
the draft memorandum were requested by the next meeting.
1
�(
Todd Weston asked if it would be possible to get the information out sooner so that team members had a chance to
review it.
Item 3 - Review of Manual Traffic Counts
Gale Larson reported on the manual traffic counts taken on
July 19 and August 2. Summaries of the counts were given to
team members for their review.
Item 4 - Review of Maintenance Information
(
Cliff Forsgren presented a summary of the evaluation of the
maintenance in the Canyon. The largest maintenance related
problem in the Canyon is snow removal. Portions of the Canyon are narrow with steep walls and the river is adjacent to
the road. The roadway in those areas has no shoulder and
there is nowhere to store or place the snow. Present practice is to plow all of the snow to one side of the road and
into the river. This procedure requires plows to move snow
across the traffic lanes. There was some discussion about
the desirability of this practice. Duncan Silver said that
there should be two criteria used in evaluating these procedures; 1) how is the public served and 2) how safe is the
procedure. Howard Richardson told a bit about the procedures and about the District's "bare road" snow removal
policy. Jack Spence asked how many times per year snowplows
would be moving snow across traffic lanes. The number will
vary depending upon the number of snow storms. Sometimes a
snow blower will be used to keep the road clear also. Snow
plow operators consider the present practice unsafe. Howard
Richardson invited any team members who would be interested
in a first hand evaluation to come and ride on one of the
plows this winter. Jack Spence asked how many accidents
have been caused by this procedure? It was not known if
there had been any. The options for alleviating the snow
removal problems would be to construct wider shoulders.
Flooding of the road was also discussed. Finding and disposing of suitable berm material is the biggest problem associated with protecting the road during high runoff. Fred
LaBar said that anchor ice above Ricks Springs had been responsible for flooding a number of years ago and that anchor
ice is a continuing problem in the river. Todd Weston asked
if plowing snow into the river could contribute to the buildup of anchor ice. Fred did not know for sure but thought
that it might.
S
Item % - Review of Accident Data
John Neil reported that the Safety Section had not released
the accident analysis runs yet. Jack Spence indicated that
the accident data needed to be analyzed for as many years as
2
�possible if
Silver said
that number
severity of
it was to be a meaningful evaluation. Duncan
that a goal should be statistical reliance and
of accidents was not as important as the
accidents.

LOGAN CANYON ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
Minutes of ID Team Meeting

Jack Spence, Sierra Club

ITEM 1 - REVIEW OF MINUTES
During the review of the minutes of the previous meeting,
Stan Nuffer reported that the State of Wyoming is using a
growth rate of 3.7 percent per year west of Sage Junction.
Jack Spence reported that there had been some statistical
tests run on the past trends method of forecasting future
traffic volumes and that, from a past trends perspective, it
may be better to project a linear growth 2ate than an exponential. Jack's reasoning was that the r value was higher
using a linear model. , Duncan Silver suggested that it might
be better to present a range of future traffic volumes with
a corresponding range of consequences.
Steve Flint asked for the r2 values for the past trends , calculations for the other counting stations observed during
the study (north of Garden City for example). It was decided that a summary of all assumptions made to forecast
further traffic and to estimate the traffic volume capacity
at each level of service would be prepared. This information
would allow the ID Team to see how sensitive the LOS determination is to the various factors which could have an
influence.
During the discussion of the basic alternative categories
that were presented at the January 27 meeting, Jack Spence
and Steve Flint both objected to including an alternative
with a 40 mph design speed, that would widen and change the
alignment in the middle Canyon section.
Jack and Steve both
felt that a 40 mph alternative had been examined and declared
unacceptable by the Forest Service and that there was no
point in considering it. Duncan Silver pointed out that the
study team cannot assume to ignore established standards
without some study. Duncan agreed that if the Forest Service
has some specific information that would help the team to
determine a 40 mph road is not feasible in the middle Canyon,
then further study might not be necessary.
�MEETING NOTES
Page 2
ITEM 2 - OUTLINE OF PUBLIC PRESENTATION FOR SCOPING MEETINGS
During the discussion of the presentation the question of
advisory speeds versus design speeds arose. Jack Spence
wanted to know what the difference was.
Stan Nuffer explained that even though a road might have an overall design
speed of 40 mph, individual curves could have design speeds
of less than 40 mph.
In cases where the design speed at a
particular location is less than the overall roadway design
speed an advisory speed sign is posted. Advising speed
signs are black on yellow and are posted with a curve
warning sign.
Duncan asked for a list of the "spot" improvements.
Stan
indicated that there had only been a general list prepared
and that they would be defined after the scoping meetings
(a general list was reviewed in the draft fact sheet).
ITEM 3 - REVIEW OF NOTICE OF INTENT, LEGAL NOTICE, LETTER TO
AGENCIES, AND FACT SHEET
During the review of the fact sheet, Duncan Silver advised
the team that not studying an alternative that included
current highway standards would significantly delay the
approvals 9f any study. Duncan did say that it might be
appropriate to state that current standards were given
consideration and not examined in detail for the following
reasons:
(the reasons are then listed). Duncan also
suggested that a technical memo on use of a modified
standard be developed.
Jack Spence pointed out that in the upper Canyon section
there were some areas where the road is near the Beaver
Creek and widening will be very difficult.
Todd Weston asked if there was any information on how much
traffic an improved roadway would attract.
Stan Nuffer
responded that general information was available but each
project has its own unique characteristics.

Jim Naegle indicated that UDOT wants a thorough investigation
and has no preconceived idea as to what, if anything, should
be done in the canyon. He expressed appreciation for the
interest of the environmental cowmunity and the public in
general. He also wants members of the I.D. Team to have
full input into all phases of the project. The most serious
problems in the canyon presently are narrow and obsolete
bridges which are in need of repair or replacement.
Lynn Zollinger explained that UDOT has a responsibility to
the traveling public to provide safe, efficient transportation.
UDOT wants to satisfy the needs of the traveling
public and the environmental community. He expects an openminded study with adequate input from all of the interested
public.
Dave Baumgartner said that the rules of the environmental
"ball game" have changed since the '70's. A successful
study is dependant upon public support and understanding.
This project will be a challenging one and standard
solutions will probably not work in every instance.
1
�Todd Weston stated that he does not have any notion that
there will ever be a freeway or a 4-lane highway through the
canyon. He feels that there are more problems in the canyon
than old bridges and the study must address those problems
without being locked into one concept. He does expect ideas
to improve transportation can be implemented.
Rudy Lukez stated that there are many personal feelings about
the canyon and that some people will be upset if there is a
large construction project in it. The canyon is an environmentally sensitive area and there is a need for careful study
and analysis before any work can begin. The environmental
community desires to be kept informed. Rudy also expressed
concern that meetings held during the day may be difficult
for those who work elsewhere to attend.
Steve Flint stated that there were many people who questioned
the transportation needs in the canyon.
Stan Nuffer then explained the I.D. Team and the role of
each I.D. Team member. The I.D. Team is to function as the
group which reviews scope, data, methodology and conclusions
of the study and determines whether each stage of the study
adequately addresses the critical issues and meets the objectives of the study.
Gale Larson said that Valley Engineering's office in Logan
will be the local contact point and someone will be available
for questions at least 10 hours per week. Valley Engineering
will also perform the field surveys and traffic counts.
Some traffic counts were conducted during the ski season in
order to have the information available for the study this
summer. Gale expects to work closely with Sheldon Barker
with the public involvement task work.
Stan Nuffer then introduced the Scope of Work, as included
in the consulting agreement between UDOT and CH2M HILL, and
led the discussion on the tasks outlined in the agreement.
Task 1 - ANALYSIS OF TRANSPORTATION NEEDS
The discussion covered the major areas of potential need
covered in the agreement; safety, maintenance, substandard
geometrics, and congestion.
If areas with substandard geometries are identified, options to correct the problems will
be identified, these may include road re-alignment. During
the discussion of congestion, Rudy Lukez asked what was
meant by levels of service c,d,e. Stan Nuffer gave a brief
description and said that detailed descriptions will be provided to members of the I.D. Team in a Technical Memo. Rudy
Lukez also asked how traffic projections were determined.
Stan Nuffer said that UDOT uses projections of population
2
�prepared by local councils of governments and other agencies
who are charged with the task of preparing proj'ections of
that type.
TASK 2 - LOCATION STUDIES
The study area will include the roadway between Right Hand
Fork and Garden City.
The alternatives listed in the contract scope will be evaluated as well as others identified
during the course of the study. New roadway alignments may
also be considered from the summit to Garden City.
John
Neal asked what the termini of the project were.
FHWA must
approve the termini in order for the project to be eligible
for funding.
Lynn Zollinger said that Logan City to Garden
City had been proposed to the FWHA and he expects approval
shortly.
Since Logan to Right Hand Fork has already been
improved there would be no action considered on that stretch
of road.
Tom Haislip said that the development of the alternatives will be one of the biggest phases of the project.
Mapping was also discussed.
Existing mapping available
through UDOT will be used on the project wherever possible,
however adequate mapping is not available over the entire
route. As the mapping is completed, maps will be made
available to members of the I.D. Team.
TASK 3 - GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS
The extent of the geotechnical investigations will be determined as alternatives are developed.
It is expected that
they will be needed primarily in areas where re-alignment is
considered.
Dave Baumgartner expressed concern about the role of the
I.D. Team in this study.
If the team is to be advisory
only, he does not think a satisfactory solution to identified problems can be found.
To be successful, the I.D. Team
should have a role in establishing study criteria and in
formulating recommendations. Other team members expressed
their views on the subject, and expressed their belief that
the I.D. Team would function in a manner that would lead to
a successful resolution of the transportation problems identified in the study.
TASK4 - PUBLIC AND AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
Sheldon Barker said that CH2M HILL would make three promises
in the public involvement program; (1) to be a good listener,
(2) to get input from all interested individuals and groups
and to treat each with respect, 3) when the report is prepared, it would contain no surprises because everyone had
been involved in the process.
3
�The scoping process was also discussed.
It will include the
development of the project objective, holding informationai
meetings to educate the public, meetings with small groups
as well as large, preparation of a video tape, and maintaining a project office in Logan where interested parties could
come to obtain information on the project. Rudy Lukez suggested that information also be made available at the USU
Library and the Logan Public Library so that it would be
available during evening hours. Sheldon Barker said that
the suggestion was a good one and it will be implemented.
There was considerable discussion on the number and scheduling of meetings. Rudy Lukez did not feel that a lot of
meetings was necessarily a good thing. He used as an example
the recent meetings held by the Division of Water Resources
on the proposal to build a dam on the Bear River. Meetings
should be proceeded by 2 or 3 weeks of media coverage and
should be well prepared. Rudy was also not certain if there
would be any value to meeting with small groups because it
would not give people with differing views an opportunity to
hear the opinions of others. Sheldon Barker indicated that
the different views would come out in the larger public
meetings and that meeting with small groups would give the
project team the opportunity to better prepare for the larger
meetings. Rudy Lukez said that fall would be the best time
to hold the scoping meetings because more -people would be
able to attend.
TASK 5 - COORDINATION
Tom Haislip discussed the I.D. Team and its organization and
the need to have each member involved.
TASK 6 - ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSl-lENT
Tom Haislip said that the I.D. Team would playa key role in
the project by providing input and direction to the study
team. Tom also asked for help from the environmental community.
If there were any data or studies that are available
and not in UDOT files, they may be of great help in the study.
Rudy Lukez said that there was a study underway at USU investigating the impact that high speed traffic has on deer.
Tom Haislip indicated that field studies were not planned
because there is extensive information available. Tom also
explained that it is intended that Technical Memos be prepared presenting in detail the findings of each phase of the
study. After the I.D. Team has reviewed, discussed, and
revised the Technical Memos, the information would be summarized and placed in the report.
4
�There was more discussion on the role of the I.D. Team.
Dave Baumgartner again expressed his concern that I.D. Team
members be in a position to do more than simply review conclusions and give their comments. Stan Nuffer said that
study data, methodology, and conclusions would all be presented to the I.D. Team and discussed before incorporating
anything into the report. Tom Haislip said that CH2M HILL's
job would be to the "doers" who would gather information,
review data and prepare Technical Memos for the I.D. Team.
The I.D. Team would then review and discuss the memos and
hopefully resolve any differences. Dave Baumgartner said
that it may be necessary for superiors in each agency to
resolve conflicts if they could not be handled on the I.D.
Team level.
He also indicated that the whole process would
work much better if each alternative developed offered a
real solution to the problems so that the alternative evaluation would be believable.
Todd Weston pointed out that the Forest Service, UDOT, and
FHWA must all agree to whatever solutions are presented in
the report.
If any of the three agencies disagree with the
findings, the project will never be completed.
In discussions at the end of the meeting, there was no agreement as to when the first public information meeting should
be held, or what purpose it should serve. After further
discussion, it was decided that the date of the first meeting
should be set after the next I.D. Team meeting.
It was recommended that a feature article on the project be prepared
for the Logan paper. This should be published prior to the
Logan public information meeting.
The next meeting will be held on Monday June 23, at
7:00 p.m. at District 1 headquarters in Ogden.

LOGAN CANYON
MINUTES OF ID TEAM MEETING
October 20, 1986
Attendance:
Stan Nuffer, CH2M HILL
Cliff Forsgren,CH2M HILL
Fred LaBar, USFS
Gale Larson, Valley Engineering
Duncan Silver, FHWA
John Neil, UDOT
Lynn Zollinger, UDOT
Rudy Lukez, Sierra Club
Al Stilley, Northern Engineering
Item 1 - Review of Minutes
Stan Nuffer led the discussion of the minutes of the previous ID team meeting. Rudy Lukez referred to the questions
on the 1930's traffic data that had been discussed during
the last ID team meeting. Rudy said that his interest in
the data was curiosity only and he did not think that it
would be of any value in the present work.
(
Duncan Silver asked for some clarification of the visual
criteria. He also felt that there should be some discussion
on how the criteria , were developed and used. Clark Ostergaard,
who prepared the information on visual criteria, was not
present and the question was deferred until the next
meeting.
Rudy Lukez asked Fred LaBar if the Forest Service wanted to
have more camping spaces in the Canyon? Fred said that
there is a proposed group camping site in the Beaver Creek
area.
The camp site will hold between 200 and 300 campers.
If the money was available, the site would be constructed as
soon as they could get someone on site to build it. Fred
also said that the Beaver Mountain Ski Area had plans to
increase their camping sites. Lynn Zollinger asked if there
was information available on the expected increase in
camping and skiing. Fred said that he would get the
information for Lynn.
Duncan Silver asked if the increase in skiing would impact
the DHV. Since skiing occurs during the low traffic volume
period, there would be no impact on the DHV.
There was also some discussion of the possibility of electric power reaching some private land in Stump Hollow and
Utah State University's plans to expand some University facilities in the Canyon.
1
�Item 2 - Discussion of Safety Analysis Technical Memo
(
The Safety Analysis Technical Memo was discussed. Duncan
Silver asked if it would be necessary to look at individual
sites if the entire road was brought up to standard. Cliff
Forsgren answered that in most cases it would probably not
be necessary to look at individual sites'. Duncan then suggested that individual sites be given a detailed examination
only if spot improvements were considered in a given area.
Item 3 - Study Goals and Objectives
Stan Nuffer introduced the subject and led the discussion.
A handout listing goals and objectives for component and
alternative development was distributed. This included
illustrations of existing, standard and modified standard
cross sections. An outline of possible alternate components
was also distributed. Duncan Silver was not certain how the
environmental constraints would fit into the development of
alternates. It was pointed out that the visual criteria was
nearly completed and the environmental constraints would be
developed concurrently with the component and alternative
development.
(
There was a lot of discussion on how alternates should be
developed and what the overall goal should be.
It was pointed
out that if significant improvements were to be constructed,
the goal would be to achieve a level of service C for the
year 2010, realizing that it would probably not be possible
in every case. Duncan Silver suggested that a "standard"
roadway be designed, with LOS C throughout the Canyon. Where
that was not environmentally possible, alternates could be
developed to improve the road as much as possible without
damaging the environment.
Stan Nuffer suggested that the "modified standard" which was
used in the lower part of the canyon be used to prepare a
• "baseline" alternate. Duncan Silver pointed out that the
modified standard did not allow the drainage and other maintenance features needed to protect the road base. Lynn
Zollinger said that UDOT would accept the modified standard
in order to maintain continuity along the roadway. Rudy
Lukez made a motion that CH2M HILL develop a baseline alternate using the modified standard. Duncan Silver wanted
to be certain that UDOT understood that using a modified
standard meant sacrificing maintenance standards which might
impact the road. He also said that the decision to use a
modified standard as the baseline must be well documented.
Dismissing highway standards without adequately addressing
them can be challenged just as easily as dismissing environmental problems without adequate study.
2
�(
There was also some discussion of the design speed. Stan
Nuffer suggested a minimum design speed of 40 mph except in
the first 7 or 8 miles where Fred LaBar said the Forest Service has already evaluated a 40 mph speed limit and found it
unacceptable.
It was finally determined that a modified
standard section, with a design speed of between 35 and
.40 mph, depending upon conditions within the Canyon, be used
as the baseline alternate.
Item 4 - Discussion of Geotechnical Investigations
Al Stilley, from Northern Engineering and Testing, gave a
report on the geologic mapping and the drilling program
which was just getting underway on the alternative
alignments from Bear Lake Summit to Garden City. Areas
along the existing alignment where improvements could be
made will also be investigated.
Item 5 - Alternate Routes to Logan Canyon
John Neil reported that he had been given the assignment to
look at alternate routes to Logan Canyon. John said that he
was just beginning his study. Rudy Lukez suggested that
John contact a Mr. Wendall Anderson in Logan. Mr. Anderson
is apparently familiar with some previous studies
investigating a route through Blacksmith Fork Canyon
(
The next meeting will be held at the Ranger District office
in Logan at 3:00 p.m., prior to the public meeting in Garden
City at 7:00 p.m.

Subject: Commercial Vehicle Regulatory Signs Highway 89
Dear Senator Holmgren,
Perry City Officials were please to see the signs that have
been posted regulating commercial vehicle traffic on State
Highway 89 through Perry City.
We sincerely appreciate any time and effort you have put
into this project.
One suggestion we have received that we will pass on to you
is perhaps the signs just stating a gross weight limit would be
easier to understand and control.
Thank you for your interest and support.
Sincerely,

ITEM 1 - REVIEW OF MINUTES
Jack Spence commented that if a 50 mph (AASHTO Standard)
alternative on a new alignment was to be considered in the
Canyon, then an alternative route such as Blacksmith Fork
should also be included in the study. After considerable
discussion, it was concluded that a 50 mph alternate on a
new alignment would be feasible only on the Rich County section. The previous technical memorandum would serve as the
basis for no further consideration of that option.
The scheduling of the scoping meeting was discussed and due
to conflicting schedules and the need to allow an adequate
review period, the scoping meetings were shifted to March 3
and 4, with the tentative schedule as follows:
Logan Scoping Meeting,
March 3, 7:00 p.m.
Government Agencies - Logan, March 4, 10:00 a.m.
Garden City Scoping Meeting, March 4, 7:00 p.m.
A draft of the notice of intent was circulated and comments
on the wording received.
ITEM 2 - ALTERNATIVE EVALUATION
There was some discussion about how the alternatives would
be defined and potential impacts evaluated. Howard Richardson
pointed out that the highway, as it is now, is adequate for
some disciplines and not for others. The objective of the
I. D. Team is to do the best we can to meet the needs of
all, realizing that no one is going to get everything they
want.
Howard also indicated that the official design speed
for the previously improved lower Canyon was 40 mph. Any
curves that do not meet the 40 mph criteria are then posted
with a lower advisory speed.

Conservationists' Alternative for the Logan Canyon Road
between Right Fork and Garden City
(submitted to UDOT February ~ 1989)
This alternative is designed to solve specific problems with
minimal environmental impact. This is in contrast to the Agency
Alternative, where the main goal is to increase the highway
design speed on all except the 4 miles between Right Fork and
Lower Twin Bridge. To make a point-by-point comparison of this
alternative with the Agency Alternative~ you may obtain a copy of
the Agency Alternative from:
Lynn Zollinger
Utah Department of Transportation
PO Box 2747
Ogden~ Utah 84404
399-5921
Beginning at Right Fork (mp383.5), approx. 10 miles E of Logan:
Add additional warning sign such as "Narrow Winding Road Next 7
Miles". Throughout the entire route put up specific curve
signs with advisory speeds where needed.
Add signs for side roads such as "Right Fork 1/4 mile". Similar
signs will be needed at Wood Camp~ Temple Fork, etc.
Construct a 100'paved taper for up-canyon traffic wishing to turn
into Right Fork.
Wood Camp (mp 384.5)
Plow parking area in the winter.
Burnt Bridge (mp 385.5)
PavE; present turnout downcanyon from bridge, add "Turnout"
signs.
Replace Burnt Bridge on present alignment with 28' wide clearspan bridge.
.
Logan Cave (mp 386.2)
Raise roadbed approx. 3' for 1000'; this removes an erratic bend
from the road and allows the road to be moved away from the
river. Contingent on availability of fill.
Prohibit parking on curve.
CONSERV ATIONISTS' ALTERNATIVE
�Cottonwood Creek (mp386.4)
For cave access, pave two parking areas immediately downcanyon
from Cottonwood Creek: one 150' x 20' on the river side,
another 100' x 35'(tapering to 20') at the location of old
Cottonwood Creek road. Plow in winter.
Forest Service and volunteer groups construct trail to cave
entrance.
Replace structure on present alignment with 28' wide structure.
(mp386.6)
Raise roadbed approx. 18" for 500' to avoid flooding (contingent
on availability of fill).
Lower Twin Bridge (mp 387.8)
Replace bridge with a 28' wide clear-span bridge immediately
upstream from present bridge. This involves a new cut at the
downcanyon edge of the bridge. Rubble could be used to
provide a slow-vehicle turnout downcanyon of the bridge.
Provide recreational parking at upcanyon edge of the bridge.
Note: Here the Agency Alternative proposes a 3 lane bridge, a
climbing lane nearly a mile long, and the beginning of the
wider, straighter, higher design speed highway.
Upper Twin Bridge (mp388.8)
Replace bridge with a 28' wide clear-span bridge immediately
downstream of present bridge.
Ricks Spring
Sign "NO PASSING".
For downcanyon traffic, sign "Narrow Winding Road Next 7 Miles"
Replace structure on present alignment with - 28' wide structure.
mo 390.2 and 391.1
Raise roadbed approx. 18" to avoid flooding. Contingent on
availability of fill.
CONSERV A TIONISTS' AL TERNA 'fIVE
�mp 392
Pave multipurpose turnout on side opposite river, plow in winter.
Note: Here the Agency Alternative increases the road width even
more, increases the design speed, and begins to add frequent
passing lanes.
Tony Grove Intersection (mp 393.7)
Add turning lanes.
Tony Grove Creek (mp 393.8)
Replace structure on present alignment with 28' wide structure.
Bunchgrass (mp 394.2)
Replace structure on present alignment with 28' wide structure.
Pave multipurpose turnout on river side of road; plow in winter.
Red Banks Bridge (mp 394.5)
Replace bridge on present alignment with 28' wide clear-span
bridge.
Above Red Banks Campground
Construct climbing lane from milepost 395 to cattleguard.
Beaver Creek Bridge (mo396.0)
Replace bridge on present alignment with 28' wide clear-span
bridge.
Beaver Creek Structure (mp397.5)

�Amazon Hollow Area
Construct climbing lane from milepost 401.5 (above Amazon Hollow
fill) to mp 402.1.
Middle Sink
Construct climbing lane from 404.1 to short of Sinks Road.
Summit to Garden City
Retain present alignment; add improved signing for curves and
turnouts. Place climbing lane sections or slow-vehicle
turnouts only where cutting would not cause erosion
problems.
Note: Here the Agency Alternative emphasized speed by realigning
curves and steepening the gradient to up to 10%. They also
plan . a continuous climbing lane. Initially we took no
position on modifications to this section because much of it
is not on National Forest land. However, the potential for
massive erosion problems from the miles of excavation
proposed in the Agency Alternative forced us to take this
new position.

ITEM 1 - REVIEW OF MINUTES
The minutes of the last meeting were reviewed.
There was
some discussion on the roll of the ID team.
Jack Spence
asked whether or not the ID team would recommend a preferred
alternative to the cooperating agencies. After some
discussion it was decided to modify the role statement of
the ID team to include a recommendation of the preferred
alternatives.
Dave Baumgartner " asked whether the ID team was going to be
part of the evaluations or just provide review.
Stan Nuffer
explained that the Forest Service which has staff and expertise is environmental areas would be directly involved in
the gathering and evaluation of data.
They would also assist
in identifying areas where more data is required and assist
in the identification of impacts and mitigation measures.
During the discussion of the Public Involvement Program,
Dave Baumgartner asked when the scoping meetings were going
to be held.
Stan Nuffer explained that the purpose of the
public information meetings was to give the public the opportunity to develop more informed opinions and also for the
project team to gather information which would be used to
identify the key issues.
The official scoping meetings
would then be held to obtain from the public more clearly
defined concerns and key issues.

ITEM 2 - TRAFFIC COUNTING AND FORECASTING
The discussion of traffic counting and forecasting centered
around information on the subject which had been mailed to
team members prior to the meeting. There will be manual
counts which will serve two purposes, the first is to provide
classification information and the second is to provide additional information on the distribution of flow within the
canyon. Four or five counts in the canyon should provide
some useable data on the traffic flow.
\
(
There will be two coverage stations from which counts will
be taken.
The FHWA Traffic Counting Manual recommends manual
counts at coverage stations 2 to 4 times per year.
There
was some discussion of the need to make manual counts on
days that were representative of the general traffic flow
for that period of the year. Rudy Lukez asked for the daily
summary of traffic flow at the permanent station for the
month of February, 1986 in order to see whether the February
count represented "typical" February traffic. Rud al
asked for traffic flow data on other roads in Cache CQUDty
i l o ther Utah Canyon roads if possible. Jack Spence disnd
c ussed~ he- importance of conducting manu al counts on representative days in order to obtain data that would be
statistically sound.
The schedule and location of the proposed summer traffic
counts was presented and discussed. Four summer dates,
July 29, August 2, August 13 and August 16 were proposed and
approved.
Three locations, Right Hand Fork, Tony Grove
Intersection and Beaver Mountain Intersection were proposed.
The Sinks turnoff near the summit was substituted for the
Beaver Mountain intersection and the 3 sites approved.
Cliff Forsgren said that standard methods of preparing traftfic forecasts do not adequately address the impact of a significant recreation area on " rural system. For this reason
a
2 methods of preparing the forecast were presented and discussed.
The first method assumed full development around
Bear Lake with traffic increasing in some proportion to the
increase in cabins and condominiums .. Using this method and
data collected in 1981, an increase in traffic of nearly
300 percent could be expected by the year 1990. This method
was not recommended for use in this study, due to the volatile and speculative nature of many of these recreational
developments.
The second method uses past trends as a means of forecasting
future ADT.
Using data for the past 5 years this method
would provide a significantly lower estimate of future traffic flow.
An average annual increase of approximately
3 percent was predicted. This method was generally viewed
SLC79/16

�DRAFT . #1
(
as a better approach because there were more factors influencing traffic in the Canyon than just Bear Lake. Jack
Spence said that he thought recreational traffic had
increased close to 6 percent per year in recent years.
Clark Ostergaard indicated that the Forest Service had
experienced about a 5 percent per year increase in
campground usage.
It was decided that a past trends approach would be used,
but that a longer period of data was needed. Permanent station records as far back as available will be used.
The
past trends approach would also be checked against economic
trends and forecasts.
ITEM 3 - OUTLINE OF TRANSPORTATION NEEDS ANALYSIS
A brief outline of the transportation needs analysis was
presented. This outline was present primarily for information and there was little discussion on it.

Logan, UT 84321
Deal" Tom:
Thank you for your recent letter, Tom.
what your concerns are. '
It helped.
I think I see more clearly
One of the problems I have had with this issue is the fact that people have not
clearly understood what we are trying to do. I have struggled with what we
should do to better explain our position. Perhaps I am too optimistic to assume
that a.-win win situation is possible.' I think it is, but all parties of the
issue must want to work to that end. It will not work otherwise.
I do not like compromise.' In a compromise no one wins. UDOT and the Federal
Highway folks think they have compromised. ' They expect you to do the same, and
do not understand why you cannot. In my view, I think they are wrong. Because,
if people have a concern it ought to be resolved, even if it takes a long time.
Working with people is what we are to do. ' Sometimes we forget this. ' Today the
Forest Service is beginning to use mediators to help resolve problems like
this. Still, the solution could be a form of compromise assuming the mediator
is successful. The consensus is the better solution.
Changes to Logan Canyon cannot happen if there is not sound and reasonable
purpose for the change. A highway standard taken from some manual is not
sufficient reason by itself to justify change. 1 This point will always be a
problem between the Forest Service and the highway engineer.
l
Political compromise is a reality. But if we ever do that, at the expense of
the 'environment, then we have abdicated our responsibilities as natural resource
managers and public land stewards. ' The higher up the ladder a decision is made,
the more political it becomes.' It is in the best interest of all of us to make
the decision as low on the ladder as possible. 1 This is one reason why I make
the point that we need to work for a win win solution if we can, or there is no
deal. A no deal means I will make the recommendations as to what I think ought
to be done, but someone else will make the eventual decision. ,
You understand, I think, what the
although skeptically. My problem
thought. " They would like to plow
courts decide.! Sometimes this is
win win is all about. '
is, I am not sure UDOT
through the issue, and
successful, but leaves
I think you support it
is comfortable with the
if necessary, let the
bitter enemies.
l
The person who will stand up and say, "Well we must have made the right
deCision, nobody is happy with it" misses the real point here. Political
decision makers sometimes like to talk like that. ' We are better than that. '
FS-6200-28(7·82)
�~
~ompromise
is a last resort. , But all sides of this issue will force us into a
compromise situation if we cannot work towards a reasonable and proper decision.
Tom, your thoughts on va~idating decisions with solid data are good ones. ' We do
not want to draw you into a consensus without a good review of the facts. My
only hope was, because of the expense of drafting plan after plan, was to at
least philosophically agree, so the design people could draft a more accurate
plan for review.. This by no means reduces the need for careful study of the
results, nor does it lock us into any position.! It was just a starting point.
The draft of the draft EIS is not acceptable to anyone I know of at this time.
Much work remains to be done on it. ~
Sometimes, Tom, I sound like I am preaching to you. I do not mean to do that. !
But I am confused too. ' As I visit with each of you I hear one thing, but
subsequent communication is different. You mentioned the bridges.; Are they an
issue now? Rudy told me some time ago that he and one or two other examined the
bridges and agreed with the engineer's assessment. , Because of that I haven't
worried about the bridges.'
,
UDOT will not build the type of highway they recommended last. That is not
acceptable to the Forest Service. ' The committee of three, are trying to reach
consensus on what realistically ought to be done. The ideas I bounced off of
you and others were attempts to resolve the issues you mentioned. ' If they do
not, then it is back to the idea arena again. ' I think this is a point many do
not understand. ' The committee is working for us, you and me. ' Their objective
is to design the right highway. ' You ideas and my ideas are just as important as
the committees. 1
My fear is that we cannot tear down the walls and work together on this. 1 Right
now I do not have either you or the State convinced that this is possible. ' The
walls are very thick and high. You fears of a political solution are valid if
the walls stay up. '
I think we have solved the riparian and fish habitat issues. : But we have not
solved the aesthetic issue yet. ' At least not totally. ' Your concerns have been
passed on to the committee with a note from me supporting your concerns. '
The Forest plan is one of the more difficult decisions UDOT must make before
they can start work again on the EIS. ; If what they eventually propose and agree
to is outside the current direction in the Forest plan, those changes, the
environmental documentation, and decision must be addressed in this EIS.! If
that is not possible, then a separate environmental document must be prepared.'
I do not know which way this will go at this time. We are pushing for them to
do it. , You are right, the Forest plan could become a significant issue.
Keep up the good work.:
S· cerely,
District Ranger
