It offers an abundance of recreational opportunities, including skiing, hiking, kayaking, and camping. However, it was not always viewed as a recreational resource. During the late 19th century, huge timber harvests and overgrazing led to the deterioration of Logan Canyon. Irrigation and drinking water in Cache Valley became so polluted that residents debated whether to petition President Theodore Roosevelt to intervene to preserve Logan Canyon and its river. At the urging of several concerned citizens, the Cache County Commission called for a public meeting to discuss the issue. On February 15, 1902, citizens from throughout the county gathered and after much debate, voted almost unanimously in favor of petitioning the president. President Roosevelt sent a grazing expert named Albert F. Potter to survey the canyon. Potter estimated that around 150,000 sheep grazed in the Utah portion of the Bear River Mountains in 1901. He concluded that the canyon had indeed been overgrazed and the trees over-harvested. So in May 1903, President Roosevelt signed a proclamation establishing the Logan Forest Reserve. The designation covered 107,540 acres in and around Logan Canyon. During his visit to Salt Lake City in spring of 1903, Roosevelt made a formal address to the citizens of Utah. He said “do not let the mountain forests be devastated by the men who overgraze them, destroy them for the sake of three years' use and then go somewhere else, and leave so much diminished the heritage of those who remain permanently on the land.” The General Land Office appointed John Fell Squires, a 56-year-old barber from Logan, to serve as Forest Supervisor. James Leatham, a farmer and school teacher from Wellsville, became the first ranger. These two men comprised the entire forest management team for the new reserve. They fought the occasional forest fire and introduced a permit system for grazing. When the system was first introduced, Squires and Leatham issued 17 permits for a total of 33,950 sheep. This is less than a quarter of the number of sheep that grazed there in 1901. Logan Canyon slowly returned to a state of ecological health. Today, the canyon continues to be used and managed for multiple purposes, including recreation, power production, and forest products. As stated by Gifford Pinchot, the first Chief of the Forest Service, National Forests should “provide the greatest amount of good for the greatest amount of people in the long run.” Sources: U.S. Forest Service Website: http://www.fs.fed.us.

Dear Mr. LeFevre, tie have reviewed and evaluated your more recent alternative proposals for Section 3 of the Logan Canyon Highway as requested by GarY Lindley. Our evaluation is contained in the attached report. TIle report was prepared by a team and is for your use in preparation of your Environmental Analysis Report. This report describes those c9nstraints whicl1 are necessary to protect the Scenic, Recreation, and Fisheries values which are so important to Logan Canyon and are con':" sidered the minimum necessary to meet the direction provided byotlr 1971 Environmental Analysis .Report. TIle negative effects of the 120 30' degree of curvature alignment are too severe and are considered unacceptable. is described in the attached evaluation. Our recommended alignment If you have any questions or would like to discuss this, we would be happy to meet with you. Sincerely, CHANDLER P. .ST. · JCHf~ CHANDLER P. ST. JOHN Forest Supervisor Enclosure cc: · Logan District With Report Files With Report v NHunsaker:lm �Logan Canyon Highwa y 1/ Evaluation of Section 3 October 15-18~ 1979 Logan Canyon is one of the major scenic routes in the state and this requires an extra effort to maintain and/or enhance the scenic values that now exist in the canyon. Integration with the order of the macro-enviro"nment is very important in the overall location of the high\Va y~ but its effect on the public is by no means immediate or obvious. The public, however, is directly aware of embankments, bridges, planting and a multitude of other design details that the road-user can see from t" e \o:indmv h of the car. The following list will aid in achievement of the goal to provide for a safe travel way and yet protect the macro-environment. 1. "2. The landscape design should be an integral part of the highway design and not an after thought to hide construction scars with cosmetic treatment. The AASHO Policy on Geometric Design states that "a uniform slope through a cut or fill section often results in a formalar stilted appearance. This can be softened by flattening the slopes on the ends where cut or fill is light ' ""and gradually steepening it toward the controlling maximum slope on the heavier portion of the cut or fill." Complex variation " of cross-sections suggested it is difficult to "achieve, if one works merely with cross-sections. For any refined sculpturing of the land masses~ plans with horizontal contours have to be used. 3. The relationship between speed and focusing distance, angle of vision and amount of foreground detail is important in the driver's ability to enjoy the scenic values of the canyon. As a general rule tithe slower one travels the more can be seen:" " 4. The existing rock features in the canyon are of utmost importance. Every effort should be taken to avoid such features however, when rock out crops are encountered, they should be blasted in such a way as to appear natural. S. Special structures may be required to satisfy environmental engineering and aesthetic constraints. As the project progresses special designs for bridges, retaining walls and sidehill structures to meet these needs must be developed. The Evaluation Team consisted of: John Nielsen - Forest Engineer Neil Hunsaker - Forest Planner Jim Elsea - Hydrologist Jim Cole - Wildlife Biologist Mark Shruv - Fisheries Biologist Clark Ostergaard - Landscape Architect �2 Th~s evaluation was limited to Section 3 as described above because of insufficient resource data from Station 865 to Ricks Springs to conduct a meaningful evaluatinn. It is not our intent that the project should end at this point station 865, but to indicate that any evaluation and agreement on that segment of the project will be delayed until the follo\ving information is furnished. A. Soils data \"hich indicated erosion hazard, fertility or ability to be revegetated, and mass stability. B. Geologic data from core drilling along the proposed route to determine structure, distance to bedrock, angle of repose, etc. c. A proposed Toad profile. D. A plan view of the estimated location of top of cut slope~ and toe of fill slopes in relation to the proposed centerline. from Right Hand Fork (Sta. 605) to Curve at the Through , Cut above the Dugway at Twin Bridges (Sta. 860). This evaluation was conducted \vithout adquate information about the structural details for the retainer walls, jersey barriers, curb and gutter, culvert energy dissipators, etc. These should be furnished . as soon as possible. To save time we have based our evaluation on an estimation of what they will look like. When the details are received we \vill review them to insure our evaluation is still valid. To conduct an evaluation of this nature it was necessary to establish certain criteria. These are listed below and any deviation from them will require a reevaluation. �3 1. A two lane road with the following cross sectional configuration would be used from Station 610 to Station 835. 51' MA'XAMIUM ,~' MITX. 24' 15' MAX~ 2. A three lane road may be necessary on the up hill grade between the Twin Bridges. This would be accomplished by adding an 11' climbing lane to the above cross sectional configuration~ 3. Removal of vegetation would be limited to the construction area. The construction area limits would be 5 feet above the top of a cut slope and the toe of fill slopes. 4. The principle purpose for retainer walls is to keep road fill out of the riparian vegetation and the stream, and only in rare cases is it necessary to keep the river away from the road fill. The construction techniques which have the minimum impact on riparian vegetation ,nIl be used. If no other comments are made concerning curb and gutter and retainer walls, they should be considered acceptable. . I �4 5. The Special and Functional Considera tion and Recomr.lenda tion contained in the 1971 Environmental An a lysis report are still required. 6. Top ·soil will be stockpiled for respreading over cut and fill slopes and other disturbed areas. This evaluation compared three road alignments which will be referred to as 18°, 14° and 12°30' alignments. These degrees refer to the maximum degree of curvature used in each of the three alignments. 1. The 18° alignment reflects a design speed of 30 m.p~h. and is shown on sheet 5 through 11 of plans F-021-1(4.) at a scale of 1" = 100'. 2. 14° alignment reflects a design speed of 35 m.p.h. · and is sho"tffi as the office revision on the same plans as the 18° alignment. 3. The 12 0 30' alignment reflects a 35 m.p.h. design speed and is sho"tffi on plans F-021-1 (4) at a scale of 111 = 200'. This alignment was also shown on the 1" = lOOt scale plans in red pencil and located on the ground with yellow flagging. Station 605 to 625 - All 3 alignments are the same and are satisfactory. Curve #30 is 12° and #31 is 10°. Special revegetation, slope shaping and landscape measure '''ill be required on the cut bank associated with curve #30 to mitigate visual impacts. Station 625-630 - T\"o curves are preferred. They are Off. Rev. 1132 (14°) and Off. Rev. 1133 (14.°) with coordinate points as shown on the plans. The 12°30' alignment near Station #630 severely encroaches on the stream bank. The two 14° curves keep the road further away from the creek. Station 630-637 - The 18 0 alignment would result in somewhat less visual impact than the 14° rir 12°30'. The difference in effects on the visual resource is not deemed significant and, therefore, the curve data for Off. Rev. #34(14°) is acceptable. The cut bank o~ the inside of this curve will require special revegetation, slope shaping and landscaping measures. �5 Station 637-641 - All 3 alignments are the same and are acceptable. Fisherm parking should be designed and constructed in the wide an spot between the road and the river. Station 641-648 - Curve #35 should be the 12° curve to avoid impacts on the stream ~vhich would be associated wi th the 9° curve. Station 648-656 - This tangent should go to the Off. Rev. #36 coordinate point (N512,321.925;El,016,652.124) at Sta. P.i.654 and use the 14° curve. Fisherman parking should be developed bet,.,een the road and the river a t Station 649. The spring near the hill at Sta. 651 should be protected in its natural condition. The 18° curve is preferred here but the 14° curve is acceptable. The 12°30' curve creates unacceptable impacts on . the visual resource. The ex isting China Row Picnic area east of the ro ad may have to be abandoned because it will be too small for use. Station 656-662 - The impacts of the 12°30' alignment on the . river are too severe. Use a 14° curve with coordinate point N512,803.924, E1,017,206.904. This will help reduce the impact on \~ood Camp. A turn around loop will have to be designed and constructed in . the north end of Wood Camp because of the elimination of part of the Campground road. Station 662-672 - Use .12° curve with coordinate point N513,771.978, E1,017,277,993. reasons are same as Station 656-662. Station 672-680 - Centerline to be as dictated by next curve coordinate point • . Station 680-685 - Use 12° curve at coordinate point N514,000.429,E1, 018,713.259. Station 685-689 - Use 14° curve at coordinate point N514,329.967,E1, 019,035.966. This is necessary to avoid impacts on the visual resource and protect the Rock Feature. Station 689-706 - The reverse curve aiignment should be used to reduce impacts on the river and on the mountain, which would be caused by the other alignments. Using this will necessitate the reevaluation of the amount of retainer wall needed. Curve data for this section is shown in the chart below. Stations 689-692 693-696 696-700 700-706 De~~ 14° 14 o · 9° 3° Curve fl 41 42 43 44 Tan~ent Coordinat e Point N514,389,996,E1,019,422.989 N514,651.927,El,019,714.915 N514,772.032,El,020,083.101 N515,149.968,El,020,500.394 �6 Station 706-716 - Use tangent coordinate points N5l5,532.192,E1,021, 086.164 and a 9° or 10° curve. This will result in the least impact on the river and may require less re tainer 'vall. The impact on the hill at Station 716 with the 12°30' alignment is too severe and will cause visual degradation • . Station 716-724 - The 10° curve with either set of tangent coordinate points is satisfactory. Station 724-730 - The alignment as established by the coordinate points is good . . The hill on the cut side is rock ledge with stable soils Use rock rip rap instead of retainer wall on the river side of the road. tv~ere soil pockets exist in the cut, they should be sloped back and revegetated or retainer wall of log cribbing or rock dry wall construction used. Station 730-737 - Use 5°30' curve with either coordinate point shown on the plans. Station 737-743 Curve data for #48 or Off. Rev. #46 is . acceptable. Station 743-748 The inside slopes of this curve are stable ledgerock and gravel soils. Relocate P.1. points #49 and Off. Rev. #47 or use a flatter curve which will relocate the center 'line approximately 20' west of the 14° or 18° alignment. The reason for this is to protect the riparian habitat. Station 748-757 - The 12°30' curve would cause excessive impact on the river. The P.I. should be relocated 15' to 30' north along the tangent line leading to coordinate point #50 and then use a 14° curve. This change should allow the curve to fallon about the same location- as the 18° curve and reduce the impact on the river. It should also reduce the amount of retaining structure. The retaining structure should be of Rock Rip Rap and not a concrete wall. Retaining wall should be used on the north edge of the road below Logan cave·. The waterfall feature should be designed to enhance the fall rather than hide it. Station 757-775 - Develop parking at Station 761 and provide safe highway crossing to Logan Cave. At Station 768 use the 14° curve at coordinate point If519,422.325,El,024,005.507. Use a through cut. The access to the summer home at Station 773 is to be maintained. Some fisherman parking should be developed on the old road bed. Station 775-780 - Use 50 curve and P.I. point described for Off. Rev. curve 1151. Station 780-785 - Use 14° curve and P.I. coordinate data for Off. Rev. curve #52. �7 Station 785-792 - Use 14° curve and coordinate point for Off. Rev. curve tl53. St.ation 792-800 - Use 14° curve and coordinate point N521,589.423, El,025,811.651. The abandoned road should be developed as fisherman parking and as a waste disposal area with the appropriate Landscape Design and treatment. The 12°30' alignment is a much greater impact on the visual resource. Station 800-807 - Use 14° curve and P.I. coordinate point N522,483, 530, El,025,765.054. Remove the old concrete which is presently being used for Rip Rap. A retainer wall will be needed on this curve. It should be placed at the existing water's edge. Station 807-815 Use curve and coordinate point from Off. Rev. #56. Station 815-825 - Use Off. Rev. li57 ,.,hich is a 9° curve and coordinate point N523,184.736,E1,027,495.885. The old road between the creek and the road is to be passable to vehicles ,.,hen construction is complete. Use retainer walls as appropriate to ~ccomplish. Station 825-835 - Use 14° curve and P.I. at coordinate point N522,946, 908,El,028,185.936. The 12°30' alignment causes a severe impact on the cut side. Station 838-847 - Avoid cutting into the hillside along this section. The hillsides are unstable and seepages can be expected in the cut area. The existing cut slopes are to be stabilized using . rock, drywall-type construction, log cribbing or half bridge may be acceptable on the fill sides. Fill slopes shall not be allowed to reach the stream. Station 847-855 - The proposed center line should be held near the outside edge of the existing paving to avoid cutting into the hillside ·which has the potential to unravel long distance up the slope. The same type of stabilization on the fill slope as above. Station 855-865 - This curve should be a 14° curve using the P.I. at N525,362.518, El,027,858.246. The outside of the curve betl"een Station 860 and 865 can be used as waste disposal. The limits of the area used will be established on site. Station 865 to Rick's Spring will be evaluated ·,.,hen the additional data is furnished. �- I . 8 Plans Required The following plans will be required before construction begins. A Water Quality Management Plan will be developed by U DOT for approval by the Forest Service. This plan will include; a) ~!oni toring standards, frequency, intensi ty and qual ifications of monitoring personnel. b) ~Ieasures to be used during construction to maintain the existing water quality standard. c) Turbidity and other standards which will be met during con- . struction. ~lacroinvertebeate analysis should be utilized before, during and after construction . . . 2. An Erosion Control, Revegetation, Landscaping plan will be prepared by the state and approved by the Forest Service prior to contruction. This ' plan will include plant species, location, quantity and quality. It will specify erosion control techniques such as cribbing, jute netting, etc. by location. It will discuss the handling of slope blending, rock features, etc. The following is offered as an aid and guide in developing a landscape plan. Before construction begins the shaping and revegetation of disposal or waste sites must be designed and planned to assure a natural appearance occurs in these areas. Several waste disposal sit e s were evaluated. They are: 1. 2. Flat on outside curve above Ricks Spring. 4. . Wood Camp HollO\v (See November 18, 1976 Analysis by Clark Ostergaard, attached). 3. . Gus Lind Flat. On hill below lower Twin Bridges (north of road). impacts are severe at this site . s. Across from Preston Valley Picnic Area upstream from the waste area used in construction of the io\ver portions of the road. It is in full view of Highway . 6. Twin Creek Corrals, which is 3 miles up canyon from Ricks Spring. The disposal could be completely screened from the Highway and a road exists. Visual The T\vin Creek Corrals site appears to be the most favorable site at this time and U DOT should consider the economics of using this site. An Environmental Analysis will be the basis for selectirig the site to be used .. ~ ___ t- ._" ~ > +_ .~~"~ �·' LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURAL ..

Elmer. An estimated 20 vehicles should be able to park at the trailhead. Because of the size needed for such a :facility, only four possible sites exist within the Wood Camp ~ollow area. These possible sites are shown on the attached map . The new trailhead should also provide for resource protection by controlling ORV use that presently exists in the drainage. I • The following is an evaluation of ·each of the four possible sites: 1• This site is located at the mouth of Wood Camp Hollov/ and is presently being used as a trailhead. If this site is the final location, additional parking space will be needed. Additional space could be gained by one of two possible ways. a. Fill the are~ south of the existing lot next to the stream. This could be accompl ished by using the site as a waste . area for the highway department when they are working on the Logan Canyon High\vay. The main advantage to this \'JQuld be little cost to the Forest Service and no cutting of the hillside at the site would be required. The main disadvantage would be the covering of a small grassy area next to the stream. b. Th~ area west of the existing lot could be leveled by cutting the hillside, making the lot .10nger. The main advantage to ihis would be total control of the activity. It could be done force account or by contract . . The main disadvantage would be exposure ~f raw cut banks that would . be a problem to revegetate. Other advantages of site #1 is the closeness to Logan Canyon Highway requiring only a short distance of road. It would also be a good location to control (barrier) ORVis. 2. This site is located on a flat where ~ right-hand fork intersects Wood Camp Hollow. The greatest advantage to development of this site is its size and level topography, thus requiring only a small amount of grading. The main disadvantages of the site are: a. b. 3. The site is open making control of ORV's more costly and difficult. One-half mile would have to be rebuilt to get to the site. This site is located at the point where the old eiisting road fords the stream. The main advantage to the site is that it is closer to Old Juniper and the high country. The disadvantages are the mile of new road needed to get to the site ~nd the lack of natural I. t' I �topography large enough for the needed parking lot) thus requiring large cuts and fills. Control of ORVIs would be a ~roblem along the access road to this site"because of the distance and ~rcas of open country. 4. This site is located at the beginning of the Old Juniper Trail and at the end of the old existing road. This location is the closest possible site to Old Juniper. The problem with the site is the 10%+ slope ·and lack of space to put in a suitable parking lot without having · to do a great deal of site disturbance. Distance again from Logan Canyon (about 2 miles) is a disadvantage as well as ORV control along the access. It is recommended that site #1 be developed filljn~ the area south of the existing parking lot for the needed .expansion.

In August 1988, a consultant was hired to study the corridor and recommend needed improvements. The objective of this study was to provide for safe and efficient travel in the corridor through the year 2010. The recommendation of the study is to develop US-89 as a limited access expressway with interchanges. A copy of the Executive Summary describing the results of this study is enclosed. I hope you will find this report helpful. If you have any questions or need further information, please contact us. Mayor, Alta Sincerely, Richard McKenzie Mayor, Layton tVv02~ J.

Midvale, Utah March 1989 �- �BACKGROUND The US 89 Corridor Study was a comprehensive analysis of the existing and future travel demands along US 89. Its major purpose was to identify and evaluate options for short-, intermediate-, and long-term safety and operational improvements along the corridor. The study included an inventory of the existing conditions; identification and analysis of the operational deficiencies of the existing facility; the projection of future travel demand through the year 2010 based on population and land use forecasts; the development and analysis of alternative conceptual improvement plans; a recommended improvement plan and the implementation phasing of its elements; preliminary cost estimates; and possible funding and implementation options. The US 89 Corridor Study Final Report documents the entire study process and the detailed study findings. This Executive Summary provides a brief overview of the study and the recommendations. THE STUDY AREA The subject portion of US 89 is located in the north-central part of Utah and functions as a transportation link between Salt Lake City, Ogden, Hill Air Force Base (HAFB), and the surrounding communities. It serves local, commuter, and interstate traffic and is the designated route between Interstates 15 and 84~ The study area is shown in Figure 1. It is bounded on the north by 4800 South Street in Ogden, on the south by 925 South Street in Farmington, on the east by the Morgan County line, and on the west by Interstate 15. THE STUDY PROCESS The study was administered by the lVasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) as part of its transportation planning process. A Technical Steering Committee was esta!:llished to provide input and guidance for the study.

Regular meetings with the Technical Steering Committee. 2. Interviews with elected officials from all involved jurisdictions~ 3. Presentations throughout the study process to elected officials of each of the cities within the study area~ 4. The formation of two citizen planning committees which met monthly to review and comment on the development of the alternatives and the refinement of the recommended improvements~ 5. Public meetings in September 1988 (Kaysville and South Weber) and in January 1989 (Layton): EXISTING CONDITIONS US 89 serves communities in North Davis County and the southeast quadrant of Weber County~ According to the 1986 population and land use data provided by the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC)~ the population of the study area was 85,539 people. The existing land use and zoning in the corridor is a combination of residential, agricultural, and limited commercial~ In addition, some industrial land exists in the vicinity of the Weber River~ Hill Air Force Base~ which contributes 55 percent of the total employment in the area, is located immediately west of the corridor~ The segment of US 89 between Burke Lane and Harrison Boulevard is 12~62 miles in length~ It has four lanes~ two in each direction~ shoulders which are typically wide~ -3- �and a median of varying width and treatment~ The .roadway is functionally classified as a principal arterial~ Currently~ 125 streets and private drives open onto US 89~ No pedestrian provisions exist for crossing US 89 except at Harrison Boulevard. The average daily traffic (ADT) volume on US 89 in 1988 was approximtely 23,000 vehicles per day. Approximately 93 percent of these vehicles are passenger cars, vans, or pick:"'up trucks~ Less than five percent of the total vehicles are heavy trucks. Accident data for 1984 through 1987 were provided by UDOT. The total average accident rate for this period was 2~27 accidents per million vehicle miles of travel~ which was less than the expected rate of 2~93~ The fatal accident rate is 0~03~ however~ This is four times greater than the expected 0~0075 fatal accidents per millio.n vehicle miles. Thirty-five percent of all accidents occurred at intersections~ Poor light conditions were a factor in 33 percent of all accidents~ Excessive speed by one or more vehicles contributed to 22 percent of the accidents~ Trucks were involved in four percent of all accidents~ '~ild and domestic animals factored in 16 percent of the accidents. The existing operational characteristics of the roadway were evaluated to identify those intersections where improvements are necessary~ The results of this analysis show that the "thru" lanes of traffic on US 89 operate at a good level of service with little to no connict~ However, traffic entering the mainline from the cross streets typically experiences excessive delays~ especially during the peak hour~ Left turns from the mainline onto the cross streets also experience significant delay~ These intersections were also evaluated to determine if further analysis for traffic . signals or interchanges was warranted. . Shepard Lane, Farmington Junction at -- ~ . Cherry Hill, 200' North Street, Oakhills Drive, Cherry Lane, Sunset Drive, Hill Field Road (SR 193)~ and South Weber Drive all warrant additional study at this time~ -4- �FUTURE CONDmONS Future population, land use, and traffic volumes will dictate the type of improvements needed in the future~ The master plans for the cities along the corridor indicate that the study area will continue to be primarily residential~ with limited commercial development occurring to serve the growing population~ Figure 2 shows the growth projected for the study area population and the US 89 traffic volumes between 1988 and 2010~ 180 Jl,..--'" 170 160 150 ;; 140 / en 0 V 2 0 <{ CI 130 ~ z en :J 0 l: 120 ... ~ 110 0 :I: .... ~ - en 50 w / ~ Z 100 0 ti ..J :J 90 Q. 0 Q. :::> .J g 40 u G: 30 u.. <t 80 Q: .... / V ~ / ~ V/ / / I------ ~ V"" V 0 1988 1995 2000 2005 POPULATION TRAFFIC VOLUME FIGURE 2 POPULATION TRAFFIC AND VOLUME GROWTH -5- 2010 �Traffic forecasts for the study area were developed by WFRC in conjunction with the Transportation Planning Division of UDOT~ UDOT and WFRC developed projections for the years 1995~ 2000~ and 2010~ Projections of daily and peak hour turning movements were made for 13 major intersections along US 89 and at the 184/US 89 interchange~ An analysis of the 1995, 2000, and 2010 traffic on the existing roadway system showed that the operational performance, which is already below the acceptable level~ cannot be significantly improved throughout the design period with additional turning lanes or other changes constructed at the in tersections. These intersections were also evaluated to determine when and if further study for traffic signal control or an interchange should be conducted by UDOT~ (The choice q of a signal over an interchange is related to the preferred ; uaHty of service and the functional design of the roadway~) Of the 14 locations ev~luated, it was estimated that all but one would require additional analysis within the design period~ The analysis of the existing roadway show.ed that improvements for safety and traffic management are needed for the entire length of the US 89 corridor: The results of the analysis and the traffic projections were used to develop and analyze improvement alternatives. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS Three alternative designs plus a "No Action" alternative and a Transportation System Management (TSM) alternative were developed for the corridor~ The designs were chosen to best represent possible approaches for improving safety while maintaining an appropriate operational performance throughout the 20-year study period~ The transportation system designs considered are described below: 1. A "No Action" Altemative for which neither operational nor safety improvements are considered for implementation~ 2. A Transportation System Management (TSM) Altemative which would attempt to address the transportation problems without major financial investment~ -6- �3. A Full Freeway Design Alternative with access to US 89 only at interchanges located no closer than one mile. Grade-separated crossings were assumed at major east/west collectors~ 4. A Limited Access Expressway Design Alternative with Interchanges Grade-separated crossings were located no closer than one mile. assumed at east/west collectors~ Right-in/right-out access to US 89 was permitted at selected locations. No left turns or cross movements were permitted at any location. 5. A Limited Access Expressway Design Alternative with Signalized Intersections at locations meeting signal warrants. Right-in/right-out access to US 89 was also permitted at selected locations~ No left turns or cross movements in tersections. were permitted except at the signalized Both the "No Action" and the TSM alternatives would be unable to provide an adequate level of service on US 89 in the future~ Therefore, these were eliminated from further evaluation~ A traffic analysis was performed to determine the expected level of service (LOS) at the .major intersections and along the arterial itself~ The methodology of the Transportation Research Board, 1985 Highway Capacity Manual, Special Report 209, was used for this analysis~ The minimum LOS for the analysis was "D"~ Existing and projected 1995, 2000, an 2010 traffic volumes were considered and analyzed~ The results of the analysis are summarized in Table 1~ -7- �TABLE 11 EXPECTED AVERAGE LEVEL OF SERVICE Altemative Existing 1995 2000 2010 Freeway Design A A B C Limited Access Design with Interchanges A A A A Limited Access Design with Signalized In tersections A C D E INOTE: Level of Service ~s a method typically used to evaluate the traffic conditions at intersections, merge areas of roadways, and the mainline of the roadway. LOS A is optimal while LOS F is essentially nonfunctional. The analysis of the freeway design was performed for existing traffic volumes and for projected 1995~ 2000~ and 2010 volumes~ The results show that the expected average level of service on US 89 would be "C" in 2010~ To provide this level of service three to four freeway lanes in ~ach direction would be necessary, and the majority of ramps would require two lanes~ In addition~ three to four lanes in each direction would be necessary for the access stre~ts~ The limited access expressway design varies from the freeway design by permitting right-in/right-out access to US 89 at selected cross streets~ The effect of this is to reduce the total traffic volumes at the interchanges and on the arterial and collector streets accessing the interchanges~ The expected level of service for this design would be "A" through the year 2010~ To accommodate the traffic volumes three "thru" lanes in each direction on US 89 and two to three lanes on the cross streets will be necessary~ Standard acceleration/deceleration lanes were assumed at the right-in/right-out locations~ -8- �The signalized corridor alternative was analyzed to determine both the expected level of service and average speed on US 89~ This analysis shows that for the 2010 projected volum es the average LOS at the signalized intersections of the corridor will be "E", and the average speed on US 89 in 2010 will be 32 miles per hour~ To maintain this LOS and speed it would be necessary to provide a minimum of three through lanes in each direction of US 89, plus two left turn lanes, and one right turn lane at each intersection. On the cross streets one to two through lanes in each direction, plus one left turn lane, and one right turn lane or shared right/through lane would be necessary at each intersection. The optimum design for the year 2010 is the limited access expressway with interchanges and grade-separated crossings. This design has less impact on the adjacent street network than does the freeway design. This design provides a higher level of service and safety while permitting a higher speed than does the signalized arterial alternative. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED ACTION The proposed US 89 corridor improvements were developed to improve safety and to maintain a level of service appropriate for a principal arterial~ The elements of this design include interchanges; grade-separated crossings; controlled access points with adequate acceleration/deceleration lanes; construction of an additional travel lane in each direction; separation of the north and south travel lanes; standardization of the median treatment along the entire length of the roadway; construction of truck climbing lanes; development of a two-way frontage road system on both sides of US 89; improvements to the roadway lighting and signing; and amenities for pedestrians, bicyclists, and buses. Construction of these improvements will require several years to complete~ Interim mitigation may be used to forestall the construction of the improvements; however, the need for certain elements is imminent and will be necessary with or without the use of interim mitigation~ Figure 3 shows the conceptual design of the improvements recommended for the US 89 corridor~ -9- �~ NORTH c::J KEY ~ INTERCHANGE @ GRADE SEPARATION I> RIGHT-IN/RIGHT-OUT FRONTAGE ROADS FIGURE 3 PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS FOR US 89 CORRIDOR US 89 Corridor Analysis: in 'Davis & Weber Counties -10- �Currently, the large number of access points on US 89 is not only hazardous, but also reduces, significantly, the quality of service on US 89 and its intersections: Implementation of a limited access expressway design would necessitate closure of all access to US 89 except at 12 designated points. At these locations traffic control measures would serve to ensure safety and an appropriate level of service~ The interchanges and right-in/right-out locations would be the only access points to US 89. All other streets and driveways would be closed with access to those properties provided from the frontage road system. The level of use and compatibility with the existing and planned street network was used to determine which access points would be closed and which would be improved for increased use~ No commercial access to US 89 would be permitted. The improvement elements were prioritized into short-, intermediate-, and longterm construction phases as shown in Table 2~ These phases reflect the need for the improvement as determined by the analysis of traffic and accident data~ Existing and proposed land use was also considered in developing the plan. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSP.SSMENT An environmental assessment of the study corridor was performed to determine what, if any, environmental consequences would result from the proposed improvements. On the basis of this .initial assessment, it was determined that the appropriate environmental document for the proposed project is an Environmental Impact Statement. The major environmental factors requiring further analysis include wildlife, wetlands, fault hazards, slope stability, soils, prime agricultural lands, right-of-way acquisition/displacement, hydrology/floodplain, noise, air quality, and archaeological/historical resources~ Any of the analyzed improvement alternatives would require this level of additional study~ -11- �TABLE 2 PIlBUIOIfAIlY CONSTIlOcnON PHASING PLAN lnW1udiate Interchange Construction 1.1t-I"S HiU Field Road Farmington Junction Interchange Completion LoIIC 1'''-2000 Short Improv.m.t 2001-201' Uintah Junction South Weber Drive 200 North Street Oakhilia Drive Antelope Drive Rftinbow Drive Grade-Separated Crossings · Nicholls Road 200 North Street Oakhills Drive Antelope Drive 6600 South Street Crestwood nrive AcceleraUon/Deceleration Lanes- Green Road 6550 South Street Combe Road Old Mountain Road Cherry Lane 6200 South Street South Weber Drive Sunset Drive leays Creek Drive Valley View Drive 8075 South Street Deer Run Drive Corn III Drive Shepllrd Lane NIcholl.

The frontage road system can control this need for additional access. It is recom mended that developers be required to design their development plans to include both frontage roads and their access onto them. The elimination of access points is necessary for the improvement of safety along the corridor~ New access points directly onto US 89 should be discouraged~ Future requests for access onto US 89 should be subject to specific guidelines prior to approval. Any new access point should be considered temporary and subject to closure at such time as deemed necessary by UDOT. Each public agency along the corridor has in place ordinances covering new development. A legal review of those ordinances by each agency is recommended to determine if modifications are necessary prior to the incorporation of guidelines for frontage roads and access points into those ordinances~ FUNDING Several funding sources would be available to fund the improvements recom mended for the US 89 Corridor~ Projects on US 89 would be eligible to receive Federal Aid Primary or state construction funds~ UDOT and the State Transportation Commission are responsible for programming these funds~ One approach for funding the project would be to implement the improvements in the three construction phases~ A bond of $20-25 million could then be issued for construction of the short- term projects. Since each phase of the study is generally a stand-alone phase, this process could then be repeated for subsequent phases~ Under this methodology, funds for construction of the project would not be sought until needed~ ,,:,,15- �The construction of the proposed frontage roads will need to be a joint effort between UDOT and the local jurisdictions~ build the frontage roads where possible. -16- Developers should be required to ��� Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Logan Canyon US-89 Tentative Alternatives for the EIS February 1987 Prepared by CH2M HILL in significant environmental impacts. Improvements that are under study for application to U.S. 89 include: INTRODUCTION This fact sheet is the third in a series to inform the public on the progress of the Logan Canyon study. The previous fact sheets outlined the scope of the study and reported the result of the transportation needs and traffic volume projections. This fact sheet outlines the tentative alternatives that are under study. It also provides the means for the public to evaluate the progress of the study and comment on important environmental issues and other possible alternatives at the project scoping meetings on March 3 and 4. Widening the roadway, shoulders, recovery areas, and ditches to normal Utah Department of Transportation (UooT) standards for minor arterials in mountainous terrain, or to a modified (narrower) standard that would be less disturbing to the environment of the canyon Widening the roadway to provide passing lanes in all possible or selected areas Improving the alignment (straightening curves) and the road gradient (degree of slope) to increase the minimum design speeds IMPROVEMENTS/ AL TERNATIVES The development of alternative plans for the improvement of U.S. Highway 89 through Logan Canyon is dependent on the identification of feasible improvements. "Improvements" refers to separate actions that can be taken to improve the road, such as widening, straightening, "Alternatives" are providing slow car pull-offs, etc. combinations of improvements proposed to be applied in specific locations that would result in a certain level of improvement of the road. These alternatives and others that may be suggested in the scheduled scoping meetings may be evaluated for environmental impacts in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). A preferred alternative will be selected in conjunction with preparation of the draft EIS. In the case of Highway 89 through Logan Canyon, feasible improvements have generally been defined as (1) actions that will correct problems identified in the previous transportation needs study; (2) actions that will result in a reasonable cost to benefit; and (3) actions that will not result Developing all new road alignments and gradients (Rich County) to 40 mph or 50 mph minimum design speeds Repairing existing major bridges Replacing major bridges Replacing small drainage structures Developing slow vehicle turnouts Improving signing and pavement markings Providing recreational parking Each of these possible improvements was considered in terms of the opportunities and constraints posed by the existing road and Logan Canyon. Page 1 Continued on Page 2 �Continued/rom Page 1 It has become obvious during the study of transportation needs that the roadway consists of several sub-sections based on the physical characteristics of the terrain. These sections, as shown in Figure 1, are: Section L Middle Canyon--Right Fork to 1.8 miles above Ricks Springs Section 2. Upper Canyon--I.8 miles above Ricks Spring to Bear Lake Summit Section 3. Rich County--Bear Lake Summit to Garden City In the analysis of improvements, certain improvements were identified as more appropriate to certain sections of the road than others. As a result, separate sets of alternatives were developed for each of the three road sections. These are summarized in Table 1. PROPOSED AL TERNATIVES the road improvements that can be made without substantial effect on visual quality and other attributes. The range of alternatives considered for this section is therefore limited to more conservative improvements that provide limited benefits to travelers, but that would protect the environmental qualities that are currently appreciated in this section. AI. No Action--Existing routine maintenance including resurfacing would be continued. Repair of bridges and improved signing and marking would be made. Geometric constraints (road width) and winding alignment would remain. B1. Spot Improvements--Would include one or a combination of the following: turning lanes at intersections; slow vehicle turnouts; parking improvements and selected curve modifications where space is currently available; bridge replacement in existing locations or on new alignment; climbing lanes; and improved signing. Most geometric and alignment constraints would continue to exist. C1. Widening along existing alignment--The current road would be widened to a standard that is narrower than UDOT's standard for a minor arterial in mountainous terrain. Figure 2 compares these two standards and the Section 1. Middle Canyon The Middle Canyon is environmentally the most sensitive section of the project road. The narrow canyon floor, confined by steep slopes and the Logan River, limits Continued on Page 3 TABLE 1 TENTATIVE ALTERNATIVES US-89 LOGAN CANYON Alternative Designation Alternative Categories.

Additionally, climbing lanes would be provided in selected areas (specifically in the Dugway between lower and upper twin bridges); gradient would be adjusted in selected areas; bridges would be replaced on the existing or new alignment, depending on each situation; and signing and marking would be improved and new recreational parking provided. This alternative would widen the roadway and provide limited improvement to geometrics, but alignment constraings would remain. Dl. Widening and improving the existing alignment--In addition to the widening and other improvements included in Alternative C1, this would improve the entire alignment of this section of roadway to a 35 to 40 mph minimum design speed. (This would be the same design speed as the improved section of the highway below Right Fork, which is designed to 40 mph standards with a few curves at a lower speed.) Section 2. Upper Canyon While the environmental quality is still considerable and important in this section, it does not limit possible improvements to the highway as much as in the Middle Canyon. A smaller range of proposed alternatives are therefore necessary for this section. A3. No Action--The No Action alternative for this section would be the same as for Sections 1 and 2. B3. Spot Improvements--The Spot Improvements alternative for this road section would be the same as described for road Sections 1 and 2. D3. Widen and Improve the Existing Alignment--The entire route would be widened to UDOT standards for a minor arterial in mountainous terrain (Figure 1). Climbing lanes would be constructed for a majority of the length. The horizontal and vertical alignment would be straightened to a minimum design speed of 35 to 40 mph. Signing and marking would be improved, and additional recreational parking provided. E3. F3. New Alignment--Two new alignments to the north of the existing road have been identified. One of these would be selected for a new route in this section. Road width would be based on UDOT standards for minor arterials in mountainous terrain (Figure 2). A climbing lane would be provided for the entire length of the route. Alignment and gradient would allow a minimum design speed of 40 to 50 mph. Signing and marking would be improved, and recreational parking provided as needed. 03. New Alignment--A new alignment to the south of the existing road for a portion of the route would be selected. This route would exit the existing road below the Bear Lake overlook and rejoin the existing road just below the residential area. Alignment and gradient have been identified that would a minimum design speed of 40 to 50 mph. Signing and marking would be improved, and recreational parking provided as needed. A2. No Action--The No Action alternative for this road section would be the same as described for Section 1. B2. Spot Improvements--The Spot Improvements alternative for this road section would be the same as described for road Section 1. D2. Widen and improve existing align men t--Widening of the road and bridges to UDOT standards for a minor arterial road in mountianous terrain would be done for the entire length of this section subject to environmental constraints (see Figure 2). Climbing lanes would be provided in all possible areas (mainly in the upper portions of this section). The alignment and gradient would be improved to 50 or 60 mph design speed. Improved signing and marking and additional recreation parking will be provided. Section 3. Rich County These alternatives plus any other feasible alternatives resulting from the scoping meetings on March 3 and 4 may be evaluated and compared in the EIS for the project. Graphic illustrations of the specific location of proposed curve improvements, new alignments, etc., will be presented at the scoping meetings. Questions may be directed to James Naegle, UDOT (801) 965-4160 or to Clifford Forsgren, CH2M HILL (801) 363-0200. This section has fewer environmental constraints to road improvement. The Sunrise campground and Bear Lake viewpoint near the summit are important features to be protected.

M Stewart announced that the A r. udit ing Com- mittee nill audi t t he Trea surer's books and report l ater today . President Stewart then a sked M Perkins to turn over t he organi zation I s books and r. such membership f unds as he had in his possession. Mr . Perkins arose and stat ed that the act ion taken by t he Board last night in hi s opinion Vias ,unjustified. He stated tha t he has been under criticism by the Board . for some t ime, that he felt be was ent i tled to a w itness , and bei ng denied that he left . He s t at ed further t hat the ro ad has not been easy and that he had worked diligently fo r t he organization . He stat ed further t hat his books were on the table and in t hem was $1, 035 . 00 for 69 memberships . 6'ir . Stewart then asked Mr. H. K. M angum, c onsultant la"Yer , to st o p forv;rard and examine the books , but U Mangum advised t hat e r. they be turned over to t he A uditing Committee . President St ewart . stated that t he Board of Director s f elt tha t some c hange in the order of or gani zation should be made and that a st udy be made to determine whet her to r eor ganize, and how this could be done . He a sked. fo r i deas alcmg these lines . There are now six directors . It me:y or ms:;! not be necessar:J to increase this number , but i f so i t must be done by amendment today . According to the By- Laws there are six. member s on t he Board and t hese are supposed to be increased in nrulti ples of three vlhich would mean t hat five would be elected today . Members of the Board of Directors are elected for three y ears wi. tb t wo new ones each year so that one of t he t hree tha t might be el ected tod..v would serve one year and one two years and one three y ears . Mr . Cant iJell of Salt Lake City arose to discuss the question of reor ganization. He said that he had thought over and discussed the matter in the northern pert of Utah for several months . The consensus of tho se with whom he had tnlked wa s that it was~ llnppssible for an or gani zation to extend several thousand miles efficiently. I f possi bl e there should be a breakdown of the parent organization f irs t on a State or c or:mrunity level . He mentioned Utah Park s w hich join in with Northern Arizona attrs.ctions . He suggest ed 8ger Clubs which v;ould deci de their own bounds . Local Clubs..; should be permitted gre at latitude within limitations set by the parent organization. It should be made possibl e for groups in local sectors to sob' e th eir oun wobl ems as to director membe r ship~ He believed there should be one for I daho , one for \1yoming, one for M ontana , three for Ari zona, tvro for Utah , one for M exic o and be thought there should be one for Canada. He said that l oCal. group conc laves should work out.. v ery well and beli eved tha t c ommunitf groups would be mor e flexible. Bernie W lliams , 'i'l ickenburg spoke as to international. organ~tion it would be most i sensi ble to take in directors from M exic o and Canada to wor k in their own area to bring out t he best in local groups . State directors should work out problems with the interna.tional or ganiuitions. Local people should be educated t o r e c ognize the impprtance of Hi ghwa;' 89 . Geor ge Hall, Tucson, gave his opinion that Highway As soc iations are c ommon but that... the differ ence in the 89 l er s association is that it is a part of Canada 2 and JJexico 15 meking it t he onley International H ighv;~ Association . He said t hat reorganiza_ c omes a s a shock tb me and I have not had. time t o think on it, but he believed that . the greatest ' publicity for t he Associa tion would be tri-coUlltry tie-in. It'~ is like nothing that has.. be en done before . Hall had been giving talks to Tucson c ivic groups which are largesly interes t ed in t he M exican stretch and he said tha t he could. easily �- 3include eaneda and Canadian Publicity in those talks . He said i t was too l a te to include Canadian pjlblicity this year but that v:e should get to wor k on it next..year . That is is ea sier to concentra te on publicity in the off senson so that you are ready for the south i n t he winter and t he nortb in the summer . The new brochure 1s the greatest help in promoting eg . It is"wonderful thing and its use increased . He said tha t the M exican Consul a t Tuc son is heartily in accord with publicity for 89 . He beliEWes that at the moment the Int:ernationl aspect is most impo rt~t,... and should be empP.asized to point out:", the difference between 89 and other highway or ganizations . M W r. illiams added tha t he hEd a sked M exico to add 89 International to its No . 15 sign . He has .. dedlcated a song "Bayane the BordeI'll to this , organization . He stated that an Interno.tional Hi ghwq autooat ically becomes a defense highway and in that case the Federal Government would have to pe:y ff7% of the maintenance , construc tion co st, etc., resulting in a terrific saving to the taxpayers. M Hall said t he main r. thing is to get the International High~ on the map.. He believes that slides such aa... Mr . Hendryx shoY/ed l a st night are very important. M Hendryx of Panguitch said r. that he would supply a s many slides of t he map of the Utah area as wanted . Regarding the Organization he said that if Plt on a c ommunity basis it would be in c ompetition with l ocat civic and service clubs. He f e els the needof r egionaJ. coopera tion. He thinks there should be signs and bulletins to att ract tourists to 69 . He agreed with M Cantwell that Utah 1s divided geographical~ north and south and it might be :gosr. sibl e to have northern and southern groups . The northern group allied with the Tetons and V,lyomi ng attractions while the southern group would fell in with t he Grand Canyon area . He was concezmed. about ircorpora tion f or the organization and i nquired how servi ce clubs incorpprate . He '\'7as told th at parent organizations have orerall incor_ ppr ation end charters ere then granted smaller affili ated gcoupp . President Stewart commented that it would not be possible to elect a Canadian Direceor since the 89 1 er St have no Canadian mecber s . ~~ . Cantwell asked it it woul d be possible to appoint three extra directors ~ in c ase Canada. gets member s . Mr . Stewart r eplied by r eading Article 4 , sec. 1 of t he Bynaws stating that there sbal.l be not les s than s ix directors who shall be members of the Organization elected by a pluratity of member s at the e.nnual meeti ng . Vacanc ies ~ be filled by the r ecaining direct ors at r egular or special meetings . A Board meeting c an be called at a:try' time . There is no provision for the appointment of additional directors _ _ r. illiams suggest ed t hat an of fice be rented and maintained with a paid Secre tary M W in c harge so t hat peopl e woul d know where to w rite and would feel tlhat' this is a legitmmate organization . Mr . stev/art r eplied that he we.s quite right in t his and the matter ha s been discussed . M Stewart gave the pre s ent membership a s r. Arizona Ut.Lh W yoming Idaho M ontana M exico Californ ia 245 45 14 29 37 36 2 This was as of Sept . 22nd. There are some 60 other members not yet classilied . He Suggested that he would appoint e. committee and ask f or mol' discussion and to present their id.eas... at an afternoon meeting . Appointed to the meeti ng committee were Cantweil, W altz, M . Kyriakis , U Hall and Mr . W r r. illiams . M . Kyriakis asked for permission to r speak and said that he believed tha t now i s the time for t he organization to grow in International wominence referring to earlier di scus sion a s to i ncorpor4l.t.1.ng Ca.neda 2 �-4and M exico 15 and U. S . 89 on r oad markers , he believed th is wa s a good idea '. . He also thought the local group a good idea because it Vlould be ea sier to gain membersk in the community, somet hing in the wHY of an 89 Boost er Club . He believes it _best not.. to change the name of a highw~ in any country but would add tho se of the other~ c ountries. M Bass mentioned that it was hardly proper to say 89 I ers International. when 89 is r. only within the United State s . Mr . W altz pointed out that 89 t ers brochure explains ~ 1 ers j irternational is an organi zation promoting a system of highways r at her that 89 than a s i ngle highWB\V.

Title A name given to the resource Flood Debris at Thistle Lake on April 18, 1983 Description An account of the resource This image documents the Thistle Flood that began in April 1983 with a massive mud slide that created an earthen dam, blocking the flow of the Spanish Fork River. In addition to severing Highway 89 as a transportation route, the dam destroyed the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks, cutting off the railroad link between Salt Lake and Denver. As flood waters rose, the town of Thistle (located on Highway 89) was inundated with the water that would form Thistle Lake. Massive construction efforts were made between 1983 and 1984 to reconstruct rail and road lines, as well as divert and drain water from Thistle Lake into the nearby Spanish Fork River.

Roosevelt entered the White House, he faced an economic crisis of extreme proportions, the Great Depression. The Civilian Conservation Corps, created in 1933, was one of Roosevelt's New Deal programs. It had two major goals: to help provide relief from unemployment and to protect natural resources nationwide. The Civilian Conservation Corps, or CCC, provided training and work for 2.5 million young men and succeeded in helping to protect, provide access to and direct attention towards America's wild places. CCC workers were paid a wage of $30 per month, $25 of which went to support their families back home. When Cache County was allotted 113 spots in the program, 275 men applied. Beginning in 1933, uniformed CCC workers labored throughout Logan Canyon. That first summer, they built a camp at Tony Grove, called Camp F-1. The camp included a mess hall, recreation hall, barracks, blacksmith shop, hospital, and several other buildings. CCC enrollees in Logan Canyon worked on projects such as planting trees, building dams and bridges, fixing roads, cleaning and repairing campgrounds, stocking fish, repairing soil erosion, and fighting forest fires. In their free time, they made belts out of snake skins, played baseball, and pranked newcomers by sending them on nighttime hunts for the “snipe,” a mythical creature which was rumored to inhabit the canyon. According to an article printed in the Herald Journal in September 1933, "One of the most completely successful of all the items on the New Deal program seems to be the forestry work of the Civilian Conservation Corps. . . So well is the project working out that a person is inclined to wonder if it might not be a good thing to make this forest army a permanent affair. . . All of this of course would be pretty expensive but it might be money well spent. . . certainly the question deserves serious consideration. This forest army is too good an outfit to be discarded off-hand." The Guinavah-Malibu campground amphitheater, completed in 1936, is part of the legacy of the CCC. The amphitheater boasts a stage of limestone surrounded by rows of benches, enough seating for up to 1,000 people. Today, the amphitheater is used for lectures, concerts, religious services, and local nature and history programs, such as those sponsored by Stokes Nature Center each summer. It also remains a standing tribute to the CCC, a group that left a lasting legacy both through their conservation work, and in the hearts and minds of Americans.

Logan Canyon i~ well recognized as one of the choice recreation attractions in the Intermountain West. It is widely known and many people enjoy the fishing, cgmping, picnicking, and scenic -beauty of this colorful area. Many years ago Logan Canyon was accepted as a highway route between Logan and Garden City--a di~tance of some 40 miles. The original route through the canyon was built prior to establishment · of the national forest. Recognition of the need for a better highway led to Forest Service approval of plans for the State to construct the highway that now exists between the two points. t~e pr~ry Much of road system throughout the national forests represents stmilarly , successful cooperative efforts between the Forest Servic·e and State and local agencies. Present and projected traffic indicates the need for reconstructing the road to higher standards. Trends in traffic, however, are paralleled by trends in use and enjoyment of the canyon's recreational assets. New highway construction in this ltmited area poses serious conflict with the stregm, streamside vegetation, and recreational values. In 1959 approval to reconstruct the 4.2-mile section above Logan was granted by the Forest Service with the realization that tpere would be same on other public values in the canyon. high-speed highway. ma~or impacts The section now completed is a very fine, However, the impact on the resource values has been great. even though a yearlong permanent stream was not involved for same distance in this section. Wide clearing for the right-of-way has eliminated much vegetation that contributed to scenic values and to sdil ;s tabilization along the river. The river �channel is practically a canal in same places, and fish habitat value has deteriorated. The new highway, on the other hand, affords the traveler a better view of the canyon walls. The State Department of Highways' request for a per.mit to build the second 4.2-mile section of the new highway is of great concern to many interested people and to the Forest Service because particularly serio~s ~pacts are involved. Accordingly, Forest Service Administrators met last March out on-the-ground with - - repres.entatives of the State Department of .Highways, the State Fish and Game Department and the Bureau of Public Roads. During this field review specific measures to avoid the impact on the stream and streamside vegetation in a number of places were discussed. Again in June, . the groups represented at the March meeting and a representative of Utah State University met in Logan. was discussed and then reviewed in the field. lessen some of the ~pacts The redesign of the proposed highway The redesign included measures to at an additional cost of about $100,000. included shifting a l200-foot section of the roadway to save trees These measures an~ otper vegetation in front of Guinavah Forest Camp; installing two culverts and a high .. water bypass; and reducing streambank changes on channel encroachments throughout the project by approximately 4560 feet. The redesign, however, did not include the additional measures discussed in the March field meeting which we believe are reasonable considering ·the long-ter.m public benefits involved. These measures would cost an additional $126,925 and would el~inate several severe adverse effects on the stream channel and bordering vegetation. The Forest Service has made clear that the measures in question do not provide for complete protection of the stream channel and recreation values in the critical 4.2-mile section of the highway under consideration. -2- A review of the situation �shows that the Forest Service has accepted many ~pacts on other values in the i nt erest of constructing a good highway at reasonable cost. the loss of ~portant streamside vegetation for same 8,400 feet due to channel encroachment and channel changes. There are two major channel changes that i nvolve the construction of same 900 feet of new channel. we have accepted. There will still be These are among the ~pacts which A general engineering review of the cost 'of fully protecting the 8,400 feet of streamside vegetation and avoiding the .ne:ed for the 900 feet of new channel could, conservatively, raise the estimated construction cost by an additional $325,000. That portion of the highway route upstream from the 4.2-miles under cons i derat i on to approximately' Ricks Spring will also be difficult to coordinate with other resources and uses. This portion will likewise be expensive to copstruct. The route fram Ricks Spring to Garden City is in terrain that lends itself to easier location, less conflict with resource values and lower construction costs. The present proposed new const.r uction and that portion on to Ricks Spring is the most difficult part of the route to coordinate. To do an acceptable job of coordi nation in the best public interest will necessitate higher costs. The additional cost of $126,925 for the 4.2-mile section presently under consideration does not seem excessive when considered as a portion of the 40-mile route from Logan to Garden City. The expenditure of these additional funds will help in preserving the i nherent natural and near-natural aquatic environment of Logan River. The Forest Service feels that the expenditure of these monies will min ~i z e adverse effects upon existing favorable fish pabitat by avoiding 1,210 feet of channel . Encroachments pool structure, damage to on the stream in these areas would result in loss of na~ural streambeds, and elilnination of desirabl e -3- �streamside vegetation. In another location a 10-foot setback would save valuable streambank vegetation and el~inate an additional 385 feet of channel encroachment. The vegetation which exists along this total of 1,595 feet of streambank provides much needed overstory stream cover and shade; it provides terrestrial insects and other organisms to the water for trout food; it also provides streambank stabilization, and roots and branches that extend into the stream provide protective cover and resting areas. A recent fish habitat survey of this very popular and heavily-used fishing stream by Forest Service technicians shows there are a numb~r of good pools and numerous smaller pools formed by boulders, rock outcroppings, and streambank vegetation within the proposed road construction areas. Any encroachment on the stream channel, removal of streamside vegetation or increased gradient resulting in higher water velocity will cause shifts in streambed materials and adversely affect the natural channel and the desirable pools that are now presento Dr. C. J. D. Brown, a nationally recognized ~uthority on trout streams, made a very detailed study of Logan River in 1935 while a biologist with the Uo So Bureau of Fisheries. He reported that, "Probably the most undesirab le physical condition existihgin the main Logan River from the point of view of fisheries is the almost complete absence of good pools. The Logan River has but · one or two good pools per mile, while the Blacksmiths Fork stream has 40 to 500 As already mentioned, the absence is a natural result of a steep gradient flow of high velocity." are generally good. a~d a Dr. Brown also said, "Shade and cover in the Logan River In many of the sections, it is very dense and affords an excellent hideout for fish. Those plants along the banks and the brushfalls in the water should be carefully guarded." We believe ' this' appraisal reflects present day conditions. -4- �( Dr. Brown's report emphasizes the suitability of the water of Logan River for several species of trout, the abundance of deficiency in good natural pools. a~ilable natural food, but a definite The need, therefore, to protect as many as possible of the pools that are present, both large and small, is essential to - maintaining suitable conditions for trout whether they are produced in the stream itself or are hatchery reared. In addition to the prevention of dwmage to the stream habitat for its fisheries value, there is much public interest in preserving the natural setting and aesthetics of this beautiful stream and canyon. To do this will require all feasible measures to maintain to the extent possible the natural stream channel with its pools and riffles and native stream-bordering vegetation. The concern of the Forest Service on this matter is shared by others. recent report by a qtah State University group ~oncerning The the need to program and finance resource protection in highway construction projects is an example. That this will add to per mile construction costs is undeniable. We believe the costs entailed to accomplish this are both reasonable and justifiable. Our decisions in matters of this kind must be based on the concept of multiple use and sustained yield. The authority for this goes back to the Organic Act of June 4, 1897, and to the Multiple Use and Sustained Yield legislation enacted June 12, 1960. The latter, Public Law 86-517, directs that tangible as well as intangible values must be weighed and considered in management of national forest lands. It is mandatory that Forest Service administrators coordinate uses on these lands, exercising their best judgment in authorizing any single use so that coordination is effected to the fullest practicable extent in the best interest of all the American people. -5- �National forest administrators share everyone's interest in the construction of a good highway at reasonable cost. At the same t~e, the Forest Service is charged with a major responsibility for coordinating highway construct.i on on' national forest lands with other ~portant values. A highway in Logan Canyon designed with obvious consideration for the locality's outstanding roadside and stream values will be an endUring source of satisfaction.

He discusses his goal to be a rancher and his experience working as a cowboy where he realized his interest in plants and animals. He then discusses his education at Southern Methodist University and later at the University of Wisconsin (where Aldo Leopold was a professor). He discusses his views on the interface of science and policy, and his experience with such throughout his career doing scientific research, including blacktail jackrabbits and coyotes in the Curlew Valley; his work with the Desert Biome Program; with Fred Knowlton, work on predator studies; work with Global Change Research Program, coordinating the Rocky Mountain/Great Basin Regional Assessment.

TAPE TRANSCRIPTION [Tape 1 of 1: A] BM: We are here on Tuesday, April 15, 2008 and we’re in Fred Wagner’s office, here on the campus of Utah State in the Biology and Natural Resources building. And it is snowing Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  1   �outside. We are getting ready to interview Fred on the first interview, and looking at some background information. Fred, would you introduce yourself: your full name and when and where you were born? FW: I am Frederick Hamilton Wagner. I was born in Corpus Christi, Texas on September 26, 1926. BM: Okay. How about giving us a little bit of background on how you developed your interest in the out of doors. FW: Okay. It probably started with my father who enjoyed hunting and fishing and camping. He took me out with him and when I was old enough to hunt then I began doing that as well. So it started there. It also must have started in my earliest years when we lived in San Antonio, Texas and had a vacant lot next door where I enjoyed recreating: climbing mesquite trees and in general enjoying the out of doors. By the sixth grade I had previously been interested in studying medicine (I don’t know why), but had been reading some medical books but gradually changed more generally into biology. In the sixth grade one of my teachers persuaded me to participate in competitive tests – statewide in the state of Kansas – in biology, which I did. Now I’m going to jump around a lot geographically. My father was a government engineer, and hence we moved on average of every year. So we lived in different places. For example, one year we lived in Corpus Christi, Texas had a house right on the beach and I essentially lived on the beach swimming, beach combing and fishing. We also lived in Pecos, Texas, out in the far west where I became enamored of the ranchers out there; and the big tall guys marching up and down the sidewalks with big hats and cowboy boots. So when I graduated from high school I had decided that what I wanted to do was be a rancher in west Texas. And although I was a city boy up to that point, really had not worked at it, my parents told me that if I would get out and learn the working end they would save their pennies and perhaps we’d go into the ranching business. So I got a job immediately after high school working on a ranch in far west Texas. I worked at that for about a year living outdoors all day every day, sitting on a horse virtually every day; but in fact, sort of relating more to the wild plants and animals that I saw as we worked around in the outdoors, than to pushing around the livestock that I was required to do. After I had worked a year on the ranch I thought that I was going to be drafted into the army. I was taken in very briefly, but was released because of a knee injury I had sustained with a horse falling with me during my ranching time. My folks had been living in Las Vegas, Nevada at that point, also in the west of course, so when I was released I went back to Las Vegas and got a job working on the Desert Game Range – the largest of the Federal Wildlife Refuges in the lower 48. I had gotten to know the refuge biologist briefly as I had visited my parents between leaving the ranch work and before responding Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  2   �to the draft. So I worked on the refuge for the better part of a year; was outdoors all the time; assisted the refuge biologist in his research on desert bighorn sheep and continued that until the war ended in the latter part of 1945. And in the fall of ’45 I left the refuge and moved to Dallas, Texas where my folks were then living; and started college at SMU [Southern Methodist University]. I’d really wanted to go to the University of Texas but it was too late, and there was a mass of returnees from the armed forces. So I just lived with my folks for the first year and started at SMU majoring in biology where by that point I’d learned that it was possible to work for a living in the field of wildlife. I’d learned that while working on the refuge. So I majored in biology. I had a botany professor who’d just joined the faculty from the University of Wisconsin where he’d taken courses from Aldo Leopold. His name was Shinners and he encouraged me to continue for graduate work; wrote Leopold and asked if they would be willing to look me over as a possible graduate student. And unbeknownst to me Shinners sent money up to Leopold’s department for them to hire me on their summer research projects and pay me a salary. I guess I did reasonably well in the work so they accepted me as a graduate student. And in the fall of 1949, after graduating from SMU, I went to Wisconsin and began my graduate work there. Now Wisconsin at that point – the University Wildlife Department was very small. In fact, at its outset there was only one faculty member – Aldo Leopold. So what Leopold required of his PhD students was that they fulfill the major in another department on the Wisconsin campus. So I had a dual PhD, one in Wildlife – in that department – and one in the Zoology Department of Wisconsin where I took a heavy load zoology classes. And then I had to minor so I minored in the Botany Department, in Plant Ecology. So that was my academic background. Do you want to continue on this? Okay so, a fellow graduate student at Wisconsin was Allen Stokes, who was several years ahead of me. We became friends and socialized. And when Allen finished his degree at Wisconsin he was looking for a position and one was advertised in the Wildlife Department at Utah State University. So I urged Allen who was a Pennsylvanian who’d never been west of the Mississippi, I assured him he’d like the West and urged him to apply for that position, which he did. And he was hired on the spot when he interviewed. Well Allen completed his first six years on the faculty and then told his department head that he wanted a sabbatical. His department head said, “You can have a sabbatical, but you have to get your own replacement.” So Allen called me at Wisconsin, I still hadn’t finished my graduate work. And at that point in time I was working as a research biologist for the state of Wisconsin. So I asked if I could take a leave of absence, which I did, and they gave me a year’s leave. So I came out to Utah and taught Stokes’ courses during that year. Then when Stokes came back from his sabbatical I went back to Wisconsin, finished my degree, and at that point another position opened at Utah State, and I applied for it and was hired in response to my application. Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  3   �So a series of stages in my life have had me in the out of doors, had me interested in plants and animals, interested in biology, and eventually that shaped my career into wildlife. And I have now spent my entire professional career at Utah State University. BM: Could you just explain a little bit how the college was organized at that time, since departments have changed? FW: When I started at Utah State, which was in the fall of 1961, there were three departments in the College of Forest, Range, and Wildlife Management; Department of Wildlife, Department of Range Management, and Department of Forestry. And so my appointment was in the Wildlife Department. BM: And at that time, what was the focus of the Wildlife Department? FW: Well, natural resources were simpler in those days and so we thought about managing wildlife to produce wildlife species for hunters and fisheries for fisherpersons. The Range Department essentially was oriented to managing rangelands for livestock. And the Forestry Department here at Utah State had a bit of an image problem, in that it thought it should teach traditional foresters. So it had a faculty made up of dendrologists, forest managers, etc., teaching a traditional program in forestry. But at that time, and continues to the present, Utah was not a significant timber producing state (like say Oregon and Washington or even California; or today Montana, Idaho). BM: So in your early years where was some of your research focused when you first arrived here at Utah State? FW: Well, one of the things that I’d been interested in both while working for the state of Wisconsin and as contributing to my dissertation was studying animal populations. And the man who ended up as my major professor in the Wildlife Department was Joseph Hickey, who was very interested in animal populations. So I directed my research in Wisconsin to pheasant populations in that state, and became interested in population ecology. When I moved to Logan, I learned very soon that in the west deserts of the state there were large populations of blacktail jackrabbits that cycled in what turned out to be approximately a ten year cycle. And I’d been very interested in cyclic behavior in studying animal populations in Wisconsin. So my first research was directed toward studying the population dynamics of blacktail jackrabbits in the west deserts of Utah. Soon after that, it seemed to me likely that the major predator on blacktail jackrabbits was coyotes. So my next research, to go along with the jackrabbit work, was to study jackrabbit populations in the same area that I was studying coyotes. And it turned out that jackrabbits and coyotes were linked in what I learned was approximately a 10-11 year cycle; the jackrabbits rising to high density, coyotes increasing along with them. Eventually increasing to the point where they could suppress the jackrabbits, so driving the jackrabbit populations down. And then having driven their food supply down, the coyotes declined as well, which in turn released the jackrabbits, etc. So they cycled up and down together, but with about a two year lag in the coyotes. Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  4   �BM: In that area in the west desert, could you give us some towns that we could look at on the map? FW: My research was concentrated in an area called Curlew Valley which is in the northwest part of the state and also extends into Idaho. The town on the east side of Curlew Valley is Snowville [Utah]. BM: And are you just south of the City of Rocks then? Is that close by? FW: Not too close, no. City of Rocks is farther west in Idaho. BM: Right. FW: And farther north. BM: Okay. Now you’re looking at population ecology – were there students involved with you at that time – undergrad and graduate research? FW: Well particularly graduate students. My early graduate students worked with me on – and themselves had degree of projects – working both on coyotes and jackrabbits. But then we spread out and conducted research on other aspects of the fauna in Curlew Valley. I had a student studying badger; I had a student studying antelope ground squirrel; I had a student studying raptors. So we were looking at a good share of the fauna. So I was really working in what we call the high desert of the Great Basin. In the late 1960s a national program came along which was part of what more broadly was called the International Biological Program. And Congress appropriated large funds for the American component of the International Biological Program. The major effort in the IBP was dividing up the U.S. into biomes and bringing together large numbers of investigators from numerous institutions to study each of these biomes. And one of the biomes was the Desert Biome. The organizers of the biome program looked over the institutions here in the West and by that time we at Utah State had a pretty sizable program – both in plant and animal ecology – that really began in the College of Natural Resources. So I sort of threw our hat in the ring for consideration to administer the Desert Biome Program. Eventually we were accorded that responsibility. We worked with about two dozen western institutions, all collaborating on research in different sites in the intermountain west: one in Nevada, one in New Mexico, one in Arizona, and Curlew Valley again, as the high desert representative. I started out as the Deputy Director, then became Co-Director, and finally Director of the Desert Biome Program; and so that got me more broadly involved in desert research. I ended up with a project on the fringe of the Sahara in North Africa, but also collaborated with people working in the Israeli deserts, in the Indian deserts, even in the Australian deserts. So it brought me quite a bit of foreign travel to desert areas and different parts of the world, as Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  5   �well as our getting around and collaborating on desert research around the Intermountain West. BM: Can I ask a question on that? FW: Yes. BM: When you went to those different areas, did you go [individually or with] an interdisciplinary team, to look at the specific problems of those desert biomes? [Was] this a time when the general understanding of the ecology of deserts was becoming widespread? FW: All of the above. BM: Okay. So did your team, your desert biome team from this station then go, or were you mixing with other people? FW: Well we went to some conferences and some sort of interdisciplinary meetings, but mostly I was doing the traveling. And I went alone to interact with the desert researchers in Israel, in India, and in Australia. So I was fortunate to do some of that travel myself, but also I would go with a party of maybe four or five people as well. BM: Um-hmm. FW: Also, another area was in one of the provinces of what was then the Soviet Union: Turkmenistan, where we looked at the central Asian deserts of what was then the Soviet Union. BM: What kind of things did you find? FW: Well we were looking at whether deserts elsewhere in the world were different than ours, or whether one could propose any scientific generalities that apply to deserts. And in fact we did. We saw similar behavior of the vegetation; similar behavior in the evolutionary directions of the animals, parallel principles operating in all of the arid lands of the world where the plants and animals have evolved to cope with those kinds of conditions. BM: Um-hmm. That’s fascinating. So – FW: Well, let’s see. The Biome Program ended at the end of the 1970s. And I was involved in a miscellany of things after that. (Give me a minute to think, turn it off!) [Laughing] That kind of paints some of the actual ecological research directions my career has taken. Some of those research aspects got me into questions of policy and interaction of policy and science. For example, my research with coyotes in Utah landed me on a national panel assigned to evaluate the pros and cons of predator control in the West. So as I looked at the evidence for what predator control does and does not do to the native biota, Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  6   �but also the pros and cons of its use for basically reducing sheep losses to coyotes in the West, I began to see how policies that were set on predator control did and did not look at the biological realities – the scientific realities – of what was happening. So that started my interest in the interface between science and policy and the degree to which science does or does not influence policy. When I first arrived at Utah State I was teaching a course in big game management and we’re not that far from Yellowstone National Park. So in my first winter here I scheduled a bus and took the students in the big game class to Yellowstone Park to look at the management of national parks but also to observe this wonderful area with huge numbers of big game animals. So that got me involved in Yellowstone and I learned about their management policies at that point in time in the early 60s. Within a few years after I started those trips I got involved in the Biome Program and a number of other things, so I turned the trips over to another faculty member, who in the latter 60s took students up and learned that there had been a change of personnel and a reversal of policies that had been in place in Yellowstone for probably a good 40 years. And the original policy seemed to be well supported by the science that was being done in the Park and suddenly now there was this change in policy and a change in the science. The scientists were saying very different things from what previous scientists had said for a 40 year period. So that raised my curiosity on another issue of the role of science in policy. It raised my interest in the interface between science and policy. But I was not doing any research in Yellowstone so I could not publish any professionally based opinions or critiques on the situation. But in the mid 80s I met a person who was doing research at his own expense on what was going on in Yellowstone. He had a master’s degree from the University of Montana, so I persuaded him to come to Utah State to work on a doctorate to expand the work he was doing in Yellowstone and I found funding for his research. He did a massive five year study and drew conclusions that were in accord with what I thought was going on in Yellowstone and with what the 40 years of earlier research had found. So that increased my interest in the interface between science and policy and why suddenly science had been changed where policy had been changed. BM: Who was that student? FW: Charles Kay was the student. So at that point Kay’s work was funded by the Welder Wildlife Foundation in Texas, whose director I had known as a graduate student. We were registered together in Wisconsin. So I persuaded Welder to fund Kay’s research. Well at that time this person (his name is Jim Teer) and at that point Jim was president of The Wildlife Society. So Jim, as president, asked me to chair a study of wildlife policies in the American national parks which I did. And we conducted a study and eventually published a book on it, published by Island Press; the title Wildlife Policies in U.S. National Parks. So that just furthered my interest in the interface between science and policy. Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  7   �So now we’re into the 1990s. And at this point the world and the U.S. is starting to wake up to the reality of climate change – of global warming. BM: Just one question because you’ve got about three minutes. The Yellowstone fires have occurred, is that significant at this time? With the challenges to policy? FW: The Yellowstone fires primarily burned the higher elevation areas of Yellowstone, whereas my student’s study was about the effects of elk on what’s called the northern range, a lower elevation region, on the north fringe of the Park. And the fires did not have much affect on the northern range. So our work really did not address the fire issue. Well Charles Kay finished his Doctoral degree in 1990. I published the book on wildlife policies in American National Parks. A few years lapsed, but in the late 90s the director for the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis, in Santa Barbara, California invited me to come out and be a fellow in the center and write a book on Yellowstone – which I then did. And so I published that and the title is Yellowstone’s De-stabilized Ecosystem: Elk Effects, Science and Policy Conflict. So that’s pretty well brought up to date and kind of ended my involvement in Yellowstone. We should go back and mention that I was doing the coyote studies in Curlew Valley in my early years at Utah State, and I applied for a grant with the Fish and Wildlife Service in Denver. They gave me the grant and assigned a man by the name of Fred Knowlton, who at that time was their employee studying coyotes in Texas. After I got to know Fred I told him that he was a single person working on a difficult project and I was a single person working on a difficult project and that he ought to move to Utah State and we would collaborate in our coyote studies. And so Fred did and that was the beginning of the predator studies and the predator unit here at Utah State University. [Tape 1 of 1: B] BM: (Tape one, side 2) And we’re continuing. FW: A bit more about the Fred Knowlton relationship. Fred at the time was with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and his research was later transferred to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Now Fred and I collaborated in the Curlew Valley research, but Fred extended his efforts much more broadly into the effectiveness of predator control on coyotes in different areas around the West. He’s done quite a bit of research in coyote behavior and started a large cage facility in which he must have scores of coyotes caged to study their behavior, their physiology, their nutrition, etc., in the southern part of Cache Valley (in Millville). And Fred has then expanded his staff and I think right now there must be – well I’m not sure how many people are at Millville – but here on campus we have three people involved in that research. And they’ve spread out; it’s now called a Predator Ecology Unit. So they’re working on a variety of projects. For example one of the people has just published a paper on the inter-relationship of wolves, coyotes and pronghorn antelope. And the deal is that wolves dominate coyotes and coyotes kill pronghorns. And so there is some evidence that when wolves are re-established they Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  8   �reduce coyote populations and thus reduce fawn mortality in pronghorn antelope. So they’re involved in a number of predator ecological issues. My earlier involvement, the earlier years in desert research has morphed into my most recent heavy involvement. In 1991 Congress passed the Global Change Research Act instructing the Executive Branch of government to conduct an assessment of the potential effects of climate change on the nation. The administrators of that program divided the nation into 17 regions – one of which was the nine state Rocky Mountain/Great Basin Region. I was asked to coordinate the assessment in that region. You see each of the regions then was asked to do the assessment because the Global Change Research Program wasn’t going to build a huge bureaucracy to do this. So they divided up the country and then went out into each of the regions and asked people in the regions to do the assessments. BM: Um-hmm. FW: So beginning in 1998 I began coordinating the Rocky Mountain/Great Basin Regional Assessment. First of all we looked at the entire weather record of all weather stations in the nine state intermountain regions to ascertain whether or not there had been climate change during the 20th century – which of course we found there was warming. In some areas, increase in precipitation, others not. In those areas where precipitation increased stream flow increased; in those areas where it did not, the streams did not increase in flow. So then we said, “Okay, the models now are predicting even more warming and in some areas more increased precipitation in the west during the 21st century if greenhouse gases continue to increase without being checked in some way, as predicted.” So we said, “Alright, given these increases what are the implications for water resources in the West, agriculture in the West, natural ecosystems in the West, outdoor recreation and tourism in the West?” And so we looked at all those things and projected on the basis of the predicted increases in temperature and precipitation; and of course we granted that these were provisional and that the effects that we were projecting only would occur if the climate did in fact increase as the general circulation models were predicting. So we then completed that and published the results in 2003. Now on the basis of my involvement in that assessment, I am now involved in a variety of things on global warming. I just finished editing and partially writing a book that’s to be published by the University of Utah Press and titled Climate Warming in the West/Evidence and Environmental Effects. As we are speaking here I am finishing a manuscript for a paper in the journal Conservation Biology on the ecological effects of global warming: both what has occurred to date, and what is projected given continued increase in temperature and changes in precipitation. I’m giving numerous talks on the subject, to a variety of groups, all the way from women’s clubs, Rotary clubs, to professional groups. I was just asked to give a talk to the Sierra Club in Utah at the end of May. I’m probably averaging one or two lectures a month on this subject, as well as writing a number of things on it. BM: What’s the kind of response you get from the groups? Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  9   �FW: Most groups listen attentively and are reasonably receptive. BM: Um-hmm. FW: I haven’t talked to any groups of skeptics, so I haven’t heard from any naysayers. But I read the letters to the editor and the blogs from the naysayers, so I know what they’re saying and I have opinions on the positions they’re taking, but I haven’t had any critical comments in the talks that I’ve given. BM: Um-hmm. Is there a common question that, when you think of those audiences, a common question that comes up over and over again? FW: Well it is increasingly accepted that the globe is warming – after all, the weather records show it; and we know the glaciers are melting; and we know that snow caps in the western mountains are shrinking. So, I mean that’s there, if anybody has their eyes open you can’t deny that. Well, first of all, some people say, “Well the climate has always changed over the history of the earth, so maybe this is just natural.” So that’s one skeptical comment. The other is, “Well, okay, maybe the globe is warming but how can you say that humans are causing it?” So those are the two most frequent skeptical comments. BM: How do you answer some of those? FW: First of all, I’ll take the second of those. On the question of “How do you know humans are causing it?” The physics of the greenhouse effects has been known to science since the 1800s and it is well established that there is a very small component of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere – it’s a tiny component – but that is the major greenhouse gas in our atmosphere. And atmospheric physicists calculate that were not for that small amount of CO2 in the atmosphere our globe would be 54 degrees colder than it is and uninhabitable. So the effectiveness of carbon dioxide is far out of proportion to its extreme effect. So that’s why when the climatologists say, “Alright, carbon dioxide has been measured to increase by a third during the 20th century,” we ought to be concerned about changes in a compound that is so incredibly influential on our climates. And the predictions are that if we don’t do something to abate CO2 emissions, they are likely to increase – given how much the population is going to increase and how much national economies are going to increase that are supported by energy production – during the 21st century if we don’t do something there is a strong possibility that the carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere will double during the 21st century. So that’s the reason for the concern. Now there are other measurements that show that carbon dioxide now is a third higher than it’s been at any point in the last 650,000 years. So there are all sorts of scientific bases supporting the idea that CO2 is increasing at an accelerated rate to levels beyond what it’s been for hundreds of thousands of years, and the influence of carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas is well understood to science. So people who challenge that don’t know that science, and they’re challenging it on the basis really of ignorance. Land  Use  Management  Oral  History  Project:  Fred  Wagner     Page  10   �[Stop recording] BM: Okay Fred, we’re back on. Let’s finish with a question on, in terms of the skeptics – what’s motivating the skeptics? FW: Skepticism is coming from three socio-economic groups in our society. One is energy companies, particularly the coal industry for example, but also the oil companies, who are scared to death that we’re going to enter into massive renewable energy production that will put them out of business. So it’s just a matter of record, well known, that the energy companies are paying our politicians – first of all they’re putting out dis-information on the issue and paying our politicians hopefully to resist any strong action on the issue. The second is (and I am now revealing my political inclinations), but the political conservatives are negatively disposed toward doing anything about climate warming because they’re concerned that it will mean organizing large government agencies and thereby increasing the size of government; and placing constraints on human actions which their political ideology is resistant to. That’s their point of view, so it’s fair enough. But that’s where some of the resistance is coming from. Then finally, I have to say it, it’s coming from some of the extreme religious groups. Some of whom are saying that, “Well God would not allow for these bad things to happen to our globe.” Or alternatively, some of them are saying that the “end times” the “second coming of Christ” is imminent, so those of us who have been properly religious will then be taken into heaven and others who have not will be destroyed with the earth. And that event is just around the corner, so there’s no concern with getting excited about the future of our globe. Now that’s only the extremists in the religious right and I must say that some of those people are now breaking away – and this is true, for example of a large collection of church pastors who are now pursuing the attitude that, “Well the earth was created by God and it is our responsibility to take care of it.” So that particular socioeconomic religious group is now in the process of change. So to look back over my career, I’ve spent my career in science, both basic and applied, I value it tremendously. And if I had to do it over again knowing what I know now I wouldn’t do anything different. I think science is one of the great accomplishments of the human intellect. I adopt as a personal principle that I don’t advocate policy because I fear that if I do it will raise some concerns about the objectivity of my science and trust in my science. So my view is that science is a service to policy. It provides an environment of fact, knowledge and information that enlightens policy-making. It’s up to the policy makers and the politicians to make the policy decisions, hopefully in the bright light of objective scientific knowledge. BM: Thank you.

RS: When were you born? FK: 11/24/1934 RS: And where were you born? Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  1   �FK: I was born on a farm in Springville, New York. That’s the western part of the state, south of Buffalo. RS: Could you talk about being born there and growing up there. FK: As I mentioned I grew up on a farm. Started working on the farm when I was six or seven years old. And from the time I was seven until I left for college, I guess I was responsible for the family cow. Milking it twice a day and taking care of the feed and everything. But I was actively involved in, it was essentially a truck farm, a truck and poultry farm, we had about six hundred laying hens and then we grew cabbage and sweet corn. And one of the more unusual things is we had up to four acres of gladiolus that we used to sale as cup flowers. So it was sort of a diversified operation, all outdoors. RS: This was your family farm? FK: This was a family farm. RS: What was your father’s name? FK: His name was Frank. RS: Frank Knowlton? FK: Frank Eldore. RS: And your mother? FK: Eva Elizabeth Reith Knowlton. And she was born in Hungary. Came to this country in 1907 or there abouts, the exact date is a little bit uncertain. RS: And your father was he from New York? FK: He was from New York; lived most of his life in and around Buffalo. Actually Lackawanna and Woodlong and so were the two areas where he grew up. My parents met at Cornell, which is sort of an unusual back in say about 1920. And he taught for a year down at Farmingdale on Long Island and then decided that teaching wasn’t for him. He went back to the city of Buffalo and found a farm, a small farm. And that’s where they settled for 56 years. RS: Did you have siblings that also helped with the farm? FK: A brother and sister. RS: You took care of the cow, you say, and milked it twice a day. What did they do? Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  2   �FK: We all worked on collecting the eggs and taking care of the chickens. That was some of the routine stuff. And then my sister and I were probably the only ones that really worked the farm. My brother was interested in other things and he went into engineering and that sort of thing. RS: So how long did you work on the farm on a daily basis? FK: Oh it probably would have been it was until I was 18. RS: And your sister… FK: And my sister also. And you know, we don’t give that generation much, too much credit at times, but my folks must have done something right because they raised three kids. My sister was the slacker in the group because she was salutatorian of her high school class. Her two brothers were valedictorians. RS: I don’t know if I would call her a slacker then… FK: Well, we have to remind her of it. And then one of our favorite pictures is a picture my aunt took when we were, my sister was about 3 and I was 4 and my brother was probably 8 at the time. But we were sitting on the front porch of the house and it looks like 3 dead end kids. It’s just a rag-tag crew. But many years later we were all back visiting the folks at the same time and we took another picture, with all of us in the same pose that we were in the original picture. And then we just printed it. 06:08 Our brother was PhD Cornell, oh no, MIT, I forgot what the year was. And my sister was PhD Cornell University. And mine was PhD Purdue University. And so we just sort of laugh about these dead end kids that all ended up with PhDs. I think my folks did that, and I don’t think they ever netted more than $5,000 a year off the farm. In this day and age it’s hard to conceive of that sort of thing going on. RS: Did they encourage your education? Or was this something… FK: Well, I mean it was one of those things that just, it was understood. I mean it was not a question, it was not, you were not asked. It was when you got done with high school you went to college, period. And we never questioned it, we just, just did it. RS: And it sounds like it worked for you. So your siblings went to Cornell, but you ended up at Purdue, how… FK: No, I, we all got our bachelor’s degrees from Cornell. One of the things my dad said was “You can go to college anywhere you want, but the first year you go to Cornell.” RS: So we were talking about your education and growing up on your family farm. How long did you live in New York? 07:20 Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  3   �FK: I lived in New York until I was probably 22 or 23. RS: And then where did you go? FK: And then I headed off for a Masters degree at Montana State College at the time and got a Masters in Wildlife Ecology. I worked briefly then with the Montana Fish and Game Department. And then was accepted into a PhD program at Purdue University, under the advisorship of Durward Allen. RS: So what did you study at Cornell then? FK: Wildlife Management. RS: Wildlife Management at Cornell. And how did you get interested in that? FK: Well, I guess coming out of a farm background and when I wasn’t working the farm I was out poking around in the bushes and playing in the woods and seeing what was going on, watching the animals and that sort of thing. RS: Do you have any particularly interesting stories about your forays into the woods with the animals? FK: Oh, not particularly then. Some of the more interesting things is after I went in college, as I was taking Wildlife Management but not totally sure that that was the definitive thing. And one day I remember sitting in the lab, was part Taxonomy lab, and studying plants. We were trying to classify various specimens and things. One of the people in the row in front of me was David Mech; we were sort of casual friends but particularly in clubs at that particular time that was a day in spring. And one day he turns around and said “Say did you hear about the black bear project that they are going to do in the Adirondacks?” And I said no. Well, he said, “Well, that guy up there on the 3rd row is a graduate student, and he is heading it up. Why don’t you ask him if you can get on the research crew?” And it turned out that I said “Oh that sounds interesting for the summer.” So I queried him and he said “Well we only have funds to higher two people.” And almost on spur of the moment we got another thought. I said for “Room and board you got a third.” So it turned out that to make everything good and legal, it was room and board and a dollar a day. And that’s sort of a ridiculous thing to do because I had to make money to go to school at fall: to pay tuition and everything. But that experience in terms of things that happened that summer, were set the sails and the rutter and everything else, for a whole career. But you may not be aware, but David Mech went on to become one of the foremost wolf biologists in the country. And I took a slightly different track and ended up spending my entire career studying Coyotes. RS: So with that black bear research, what did you end up doing? Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  4   �FK: RS: Were you fearful? FK: No. We weren’t old enough to be fearful. Actually, black bears are fairly docile and they are more apt to run away than anything else or not at all aggressive. RS: So I’m just going to recap a little bit to make sure that I have your story down pretty well. So you grew up on a farm and that sort of sparked your interest in animals and wild life and plants. And so then when you decided to college you went to Cornell and you studied Wild Life Management. And then while there, that’s when you met David Mech. How do you spell his name? FK: MECH. RS: MECH; Okay. And he told you about the project that would be going on in the Adirondacks with the black bear and so you did that for a while. FK: I actually did it for two summers. I got paid a little better the second summer. RS: That was good. With your experience you could hold out for some more huh? FK: It was actually, the people with New York Conservation Department were essentially helping that we could tag 5 or 6 bears during that 1st summer. And that summer, Dave and I were pared teamed together and we just run the Adirondacks and we ended up trapping and tagging 60 bears when they expected 5 or 6. RS: Wow. Ten times their expectations FK: And before it all got said and done, I like to say that I had a hundred and 67 notches in my bear trap before that part of my career ended. RS: So you did that at Cornell? And you graduated with your undergraduate degree there: a Bachelor of Science in Wild Life Management. Did you meet people there who were particularly influential in shaping your career? FK: 15:39 Well we were trapping and tagging bears primarily, and it was before the days of telemetry and everything else. We had very crude techniques for subduing bears and tagging them and measuring them, and weighing and all that. I met a few people. But it wasn’t particularly on a, well I say it wasn’t on a professional level. I did meet people like C.W. Severinghouse and E. L. Cheeton, but they were higher up in the New York Conservation Department and they knew of this crew and everything and they came to visit us, but it wasn’t much beyond that. And then my advisor at Cornell was, undergraduate advisor was Oliver Hewitt and there isn’t much exceptional in terms of undergraduate relationship, but eventually after I got my PhD and was working for the US Fish and Wildlife Services, he was going on Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  5   �Sabbatical and he needed somebody to teach his courses. So I took a leave of absence from the Federal Government and went back to Cornell and taught his courses for a semester. RS: Did you enjoy that experience? FK: I enjoyed it. But at that time I had a full time research job, with the Fish and Wildlife Services. I opted to stay in full time research as much as possible. RS: So when did you get interested in coyotes then? Was that at Cornell? FK: No, my first experience with coyotes was in New York. It was during the fall of 1956. We had been asked to go back into the Adirondacks Mountains in late September to try to catch another bear or two. And I remember Dave each night camping out in the cold frosty night with stars everywhere. Suddenly a bunch of coyotes took off yipping and that was my first exposure to them. But subsequent to Cornell I went to Montana State University. And did masters on moose in the Gravity [?] Mountains. And then after that I went to Purdue. I was recruited by Durward Allen to do a study in Texas, which involved predation problems with coyotes and deer on the Wardler Wildlife Refuge in South Texas. So that was my first real experience with coyotes. RS: So Durward Allen was at Purdue and he was your? FK: He was my advisor. Graduate advisor from my doctoral dissertation. RS: Ok so he got you working on a project with coyotes? FK: Yeah, with coyotes. RS: And you said it was because they were attacking deer? FK: Well, he just said that there was this neat area in Texas where they had a lot of deer and they had coyotes and wild turkeys and that stuff. And he just sent me down there and for a summer I had to figure out what I was, or carve out my study program. It involved the study of the relationship between coyotes and deer. And try to interpret it. RS: Can you talk more about that experience? FK: Well it turned out that I decided that if you wanted to understand the impact of coyotes on deer you needed to understand the deer. So that study involved primarily looking at the feeding patterns of coyotes, to determine when deer were vulnerable and what portion of the coyote diet the deer comprised. And then it was a matter of studying the deer in terms of looking at age, structure and survival rates, and reproductive rates for the deer. And so I actually spent more time studying the deer than I did the coyotes. But I became very much interested in the coyotes. And then after I completed my degree, I was hired 16:43 Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  6   �by the US Fish and Wildlife Service to continue ecological research on coyotes. And that was in Texas. I was stationed in San Antonio at the time and I was there for some eight years. And as most people are aware, most of Texas is private land and private ranches. And working’s a little bit difficult. And primarily of sheep predation; problem sheep and goat. And I finally convinced, after about eight years, I convinced directors of the National Wildlife Research Center that we needed to be directing a bunch of this research on public lands. That was a subterfuge. Because when I was in Montana I knew about mountains and snow on top of them year-round. All the time I was in Texas I knew that just over the horizon there were mountains that had snow, and that I was trying to come back. Through the graces of, essentially, Fred Wagner, who is also in the College of Natural Resources. He was Associate Dean at the time. He had started a coyote study in Curlew Valley and he had come down to talk with me about how, things that could be done, or how to go about doing something. Eventually, he was instrumental in getting me to transfer the whole field station that we had in San Antonio to Logan. We’re associated with the College of Natural Resources here, but we are still federal employees. RS: So what valley was that you said? FK: Curlew. RW: Curlew: how do you spell that? FK: CURLEW. And that’s immediately north of Great Salt Lake, in the vicinity of Snowville. RS: So you came there directly from Texas. FK: Well, I came to Logan, but he was doing, conducting some coyote/ jackrabbit studies in Curlew Valley. And that was in 1972. And about that time he sort of got out of the study, stopped his involvement with the coyote and jackrabbit studies in Curlew Valley and our program took them over. And we pursued them for another 20 years. RS: So were you teaching here at the university when you came? FK: No, I was primarily doing research and was administering the official wildlife service program on coyote research. Primarily ecological research, but there are some management implications related to looking, trying to understand coyotes in relation to their jeopordations on sheep and trying to find ways of minimizing those jeopardations. RS: So can you talk about some of your first experiences then here in Logan and Cache Valley or Curlew Valley? FK: Well, a lot of things have changed since then. Obviously some of the first part was just trying to understand both coyotes but also understanding the sheep industry. And at that time they used to, the sheep industry in Northern Utah, has a tendency to graze the mountain ranges in the summertime. And then they move the sheep out to the desert for the wintertime, and they graze out on the desert during the winter. When we first moved Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  7   �here in 1972 they used to trail the sheep from, they used to come out of Green Canyon and trail across the valley and some 60 miles out to Curlew Valley and other areas in that vicinity. And the convention of wisdom at the time was that the coyotes followed the sheep out there. When they moved the sheep the coyotes went with them. When we started to understand that coyotes are territorial, they said it doesn’t make any sense for the coyotes to be following the sheep. They are locked into a partial ground that they defend. So what was happening was the sheep were going from one coyote territory to the next. And the reason that the people thought the coyotes were following them, was that they kept getting jeopordations as they went. But subsequently the one study I did in the Bear River Mountains themselves was looking at, there was also the feeling that coyotes migrated in the winter time with the deer herds. Because people found coyotes among their deer winter range during the winter time. But again from a biological standpoint it didn’t make sense to us to think that here you have a territorial animal, that they would abandon that territory and follow the deer, when they outa be out of their territories during the breeding season and whelping season. Well, the breeding season and whelping season is right in the dead of winter. RS: What’s a whelping season? FK: That’s when pups are born. And so we had a study which specifically looked at whether coyotes changed their location from summer to winter. Summer because it mates. There was a great deal of criticism at the time that from some segments of the public thinking that they are hunting coyotes in those high mountain areas in the winter time and there aren’t any sheep there. And there’s no jeopordations going on. The question is whether they were really getting the coyotes that were causing problems or were they just out there killing coyotes because that’s when they could do it. Our research essentially showed that the coyotes that are moving winter include the coyotes that are there in the summer. And the coyotes tend to, there was no net change in the altitudinal levels in where the coyotes were in the winter time compared to summer time. But that doesn’t mean that there weren’t coyotes congregating around the wintering areas of the big game animals. But I’m reasonably sure that was that were transient animals that were not attached to territories yet. They were essentially kicked out of there natal, the areas where they were born by their parents. And they were out looking around for other areas to go into and also a place to get groceries. RS: So when you made it here to Logan, I was just wondering about your own family, if you had started your own family by this time? FK: Yes, I had… RS: Could you talk just briefly about that? FK: All my children were born in Texas: one in Corpus Christi, and one in Sinton, Texas and two in San Antonio. RS: And where did you meet your wife? Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  8   �FK: Via the U.S. mails; a friend of a friend. She was going to West Virginia Wesleyan. And I met her and it was just as I was starting my PhD program. I knew I was going to be going to Texas for a couple years. And I said well either you decide to go together or you just go your separate ways. So six months after I met her we got married and the honeymoon was a trip to Texas and all the years there after. RS: So then you came as a family here to the [Cache] Valley. Do you have any family land use traditions? FK: Well, I grew up on a farm. RS: Yeah, but with your own family here ? FK: Here we did not. As a matter of fact, I have been … as I was getting ready for retirement back in the early 90s, well around 1990, I, having come from a farm I wanted to return to a farm. And I wanted to have animals. And I knew that I couldn’t. I really have a preference for South Western Montana, but I knew I couldn’t get ready for that thing in arms length away. So we eventually, in 1990, bought the small farm in Northern Cache Valley; and acquired a small flock of sheep. And by that time all my kids were grown and through college. But I’ve been roundly berated for not having done that earlier. RS: Not having gotten your farm earlier? By who? FK: Not having gotten the farm. It is primarily my youngest daughter who dearly loves working with horses. And we didn’t have much of an opportunity for that when she was growing up. RS: What kinds of things did they do as kids growing up? Did they do much with the land? FK: Not really. We lived in, at that time, we lived in the North East bench here in Logan adjacent to Lundstrom Park, before it was a park. And they pretty much did typical youth activities in the valley. I mean in terms of school activities and things of that sort. RS: So your small farm that you bought in 1990 then, is that where you still are in Cornish [Utah]. FK: Yes, a non-commercial enterprise. RS: And so you have sheep. Do you have other animals? FK: We had some horses. Actually now its one horse and we board two others for somebody else. That’s all it is. We are raising, the flock is geared specifically toward, to provide wool for my hand spinning interests. So we have essentially three breeds of sheep: Corriedale, Romney and Romeldale. Which are quite three different specific types of wool: white and colored. Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  9   �RS: And then you can, do you send your wool to someone? Or do you do the … FK: No, we sell it there at the farm. Or we go to fiber shows, primarily the one in Idaho Falls: the Snake River Fiber Fest. And there is another one now in Salt Lake, which is the Great Basin Fiber Fair. But they are all craft people essentially. RS: So how’s the farm? FK: What? It’s delightful! It was an old decrepit farm that needed a lot of fixing. In my wife’s words (when she saw it and I indicated I wanted to buy it, and all it had for a house at that time was a building that had been moved there, had been retired as a railroad section house in 1930). And my wife said, “Seems to me we are just moving backwards.” But a few months later she said, “Why did we wait so long?” RS: Oh that’s great. So then what are some of your hobbies and recreational pursuits? FK: Well, number one is if you have a farm, you don’t give up the day job. And so the hobbies and recreational things are primarily taking care of the farm. And I did retire about a year ago. But for 15 years or so or 16 years we kept the day job to support the farm. RS: Right. So you retired from the university about a year ago? FK: Well, I actually retired from the federal government. RS: From the fish and… FK: Well, it’s a long story but, well, I was employed by Fish and Wildlife Services, initially. Then in one of their inspirations in 1986 the US Congress transferred the whole animal damage area from the department of the Interior: The Fish and Wildlife Services, to the US Department of Agriculture. So I technically retired from the US Department of Agriculture. But I was still associated with the same, the National Wildlife Research Center, which was the research arm dealing with the problems associated with wild animals. RS: And is that your connection to the university then? FK: Well, my connection to the university is sort of a happy agreement. We have a cooperative agreement where they agreed to house us and give us staff status and let us serve on graduate committees and serve as major advisor of graduate students; that sort of things. So that went on between, from 1972 till 2007. RS: So now your full time profession is farming or ranching? FK: Well, sort of. I still come into the office three days a week or thereabouts. Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  10   �RS: I think a lot of people do that. It’s hard to give it away. FK: Well, trying to wrap up. I mean I’ve got, when I look at the, I’ve identified 25 research papers that need to be written. I mean they’ve already got the date and stuff. Obviously all of them aren’t going to get written, but hopefully a major part of them will. RS: So I asked you about some major people who were major influences in helping you make the choice in getting into wildlife management and into farming. But were there other things that influenced you? Like certain classes that you took? Or books? Or maybe some leaders or anything like that? FK: Well, initially when I was probably in junior high school, I had an aunt that gave me a subscription to Natural History. And that sort of, well through that I sort of developed a gradual interest in, I mean, I was always interested as I was out seeing in the wild I mean, on the farm, and I used to trap muskrats for income when I was in my early teens. And I just gravitated in that direction. And [as] I said, I went to Cornell and I didn’t get a full head of steam in the reading in wildlife, I mean I was taking courses and liking it. But it was the research work of the black bears in the Adirondacks that “This is the way we’re going.” And then you start getting wrapped up in some of that stuff. And the new stuff was interesting and they coyote stuff became REALLY fascinating to me when we started looking at the population ecology of coyotes; because virtually nothing was new about it. People just thought coyotes were just out there running willynilly around and we found out that: no they aren’t. They have their own restrictions. They are limited to their own part of the universe. I mean they have their own territory and they stay pretty much within it. Except when they’re bored and they get to be juvenile delinquents. That’s why they split, and try to find a place of their own. And most of them don’t make it. I mean probably 9% of them simply don’t make it to become full- fledged adults. But that’s a pretty common thing in all of wild populations. In order for a population to sustain itself the breeding parent only has to replace itself in its lifetime. You know to bring another pair of animals up to breeding age. And when you realize that they can, that they own a territory they can produce probably 25 or 30, 35 pups in their lifetime. Only two of those will survive. And we are talking averages obviously. RS: Ok, what was your earliest memory of Logan Canyon then to be more specific? FK: My earliest memory? Well, I mentioned that Fred Wagner had visited me in Texas and had talked us into funding one of his research projects. And so in the summer, I can’t remember which summer, in the late 1960s, I took the family on summer vacation. And I remember that we came up and camped in Rocky Mountain National Park; and then over in western Colorado in a place called Lincoln Park. Then I remember we drove across southern Wyoming before the days of I-80. And I remember coming around Bear Lake and then turning at Garden City and climbed up over the ridge and cruised down Logan Canyon and we stopped at a campsite. What’s the name of it? Not Woodside? [Wood Camp] It’s right where the Juniper Jardine trail turns off; I can’t remember the name of it right now. But we camped there and got some pictures of the kids sitting there, they were Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  11   �probably 2, 4 and 5, or something like that at the time. Then we came on down out of the rest of the canyon then met up with Fred Wagner. Then he and I and his graduate student went out to the west desert, but that was my first experience with my introduction to Logan Canyon. RS: So beyond your first experience were there any areas of Logan Canyon that you visited a lot or were most active in? FK: There were some areas, like the areas like the sinks that were pretty during the summer time. And there are some other areas back up in the city of [inaudible] ground, and Herd Hollow those areas. I have not spent much time there in the winter time other than skiing at Beaver Mountain; a past time that has now gone by the boards. RS: Were most of the activities you did in Logan Canyon personal then? FK: They were very personal. The only professional activity was, involved the one study when we were looking at the altitudinal location of coyotes in the summer verses winter, which was a study done by a graduate student Glenn Gantz. RS: How do you spell Gantz? FK: GANTZ RS: Do you have a favorite place in Logan Canyon? FK: Not a single. RS: This goes in a little different direction but are you a member of a religious community? And if so does your religious affiliation effect your land use beliefs? FK: I currently belong to the Presbyterian Community Church in Preston, Idaho, which is the closest church. It’s [inaudible] to our farm. Our farm is right on the Utah/ Idaho border and Preston’s closer than Logan so we affiliated. And they seemed to need us a little more than Logan did. [Laughing] RS: Do they have certain beliefs about the land? FK: It isn’t anything that is identified specifically as land other than a general concept of stewardship. And it’s a matter of … when we are talking about stewardship we are talking about not only stewardship here now, but in perpetuity. You know, it’s for future generations as well as for what’s going on now. RS: So how do you think you or your activities have contributed to land use change and policies in Logan Canyon? Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  12   �FK: Well, I think that it’s a little bit difficult to answer. I mean I don’t know exactly how to answer that, other than say that we’ve been studying coyotes and coyote ecology and coyote populations and understanding them. And we’ve been doing that across the west. And most of the things that apply to coyotes elsewhere, also apply to coyotes here. We conduct the studies on coyotes . . . you know I’ve been involved in some very intensive predation studies in Texas. I’ve been involved in coyote population studies in Idaho, in Utah, the state of Washington, Wyoming. So I mean they are all scattered around. The general population patterns are the same; it’s just that you sometimes tweak reproductive rates or you tweak territory sizes or something like that differently when you go from one type of environment to another. But the basic principles in terms of recruitment loss and the behavior of the animals was just one of the things that you try to work with extensively when you’re trying to manage deprivations. So coyotes are very similar in terms of behavior, in terms of their population mechanisms throughout their range. RS: I was just going to ask about policies then; because if you have been doing studies on coyotes I wonder, have there been any major policy changes regarding coyotes that are important or that have maybe shaped your work? FK: Well, there have been some major policy changes in predator management practices; particularly when you’re dealing with animals that cause deprivations. And to pin any specific thing to specific research becomes a little bit difficult. For instance, in 1972 by executive order all predacides were essentially banned in the use for killing coyotes in the federal program. They did switch for some other techniques but that was without the use of poisons. Some of the other subtle things that are going on, just understanding that there’s not a great big mass of coyotes floating around just looking for something to bite, but to understand their territorial and that they limit their own numbers, through aggression or pushing the animals out into unfit environments where they die. And understanding that reproductive rates change; things like that. The management program is trying to shift from removing the animals to behavioral modifications that’s finding those processes, trying to work with those processes that decrease the likelihood that they are going to develop perdition problems. But the policies change slowly. Sometimes they exceed the lifetime of the professionals that are doing the work. You have to wait for the people to change [laughing] in order to get new practices instilled. Although there are occasions when there are very specific directives that come down that are very politically motivated; I mean, that bad intoxicant’s [bill] in 1972 was primarily politically motivated by somebody that wanted to garner a few more votes for presidency. RS: So what’s your overall impression of how land use policies are determined in Logan Canyon? FK: Well that’s something that you probably outa get more information from the Forest Service on that, which is, they’re the primary ones. But I think that curtly there’s a lot more public input into the establishing the policies and the guidelines by which they manage. At least the public is taking into serve in sort of an advisory role in terms of Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  13   �what their interests are. It isn’t that, obviously when you’re talking about areas large and as varied as Logan Canyon is that there are a lot of people that have a lot of different ideas about how it should be used and they all can’t have their way. It’s my impression that the Forest Service is trying to let people have voice and help to guide some of that. RS: So are you a member of any associations that are involved in decision making and land use policies in Cache Valley? FK: Not at the moment. RS: Or in any other places? FK: I’m on, the list goes back to earlier things, I am on the Red Wolf Recovery Implementation team which sort of reviews of policies of trying to establish the wild population of red wolves in North Carolina. That harkens back to a time when my research group was responsible for quote, “finding the remnant populations of red wolves.” And they were brought into captive breeding program; then eventually released back into North Carolina. We were more sort of advising Fish and Wild Life Service what things they need to be doing and what measures they should be taking to understand what’s going on. RS: So have you worked in North Carolina? FK: No, other than going there for advisory. But it was my background in terms of canidae   biology and behavior of that expertise. There’s actually 8 members of that team; we get together twice a year to review data, make suggestions and recommendations. RS: Have you ever tried to influence government actions and, besides making recommendations, but like writing letters or attending meetings? FK: Well I attend professional meetings. But I haven’t as federal employees we’re sort of restricted from getting into policy arenas. Now that I’m retired maybe I can get into them; become a little more involved in that. RS: What world events have had the most impact on your professional life? FK: I think, compared to my professional life, it has probably got to be the environmental moment... that essentially sprung up in the early 70’s after the release of Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring. Which made people really aware of many of the environmental issues that are going on, were going on at the time. And of course, that focus has switched over the years. I mean now we see it in terms of global warming and energy policy and things like that. But just waking public awareness of the impact that humans have on their environment has essentially is driven by professional career. Because people have different ideas about the species that I’ve spent my career studying was funding for it is derived because of the controversies and the interests that people have. There are a lot of different people that are very much endeared to coyotes; they are very Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  14   �charismatic and they’re extremely interesting, I think, if you get to know them. There’s other people that detest them because of the economic problems they cause to their livelihoods. And that can be a major conflict. And the public awareness of those, I mean of being charismatic, they are trying to push it in one direction and the other people are adamantly opposed to; they would like to see the last one gone. RS: Ok. So do you have any other particular stories that you would like to share with us about your experiences. FK: Nothing other than it’s been a really, a really fun career. I mean it’s had its trials and tribulations, but it’s had some enormously interesting and really insightful things that you just go along and you are just totally puzzled by something. Then you know, every few years you get one of those “ah-ha” moments. And things seem to fall into place and you seem to understand one more small aspect of the whole situation. That’s what people that get wrapped up in environmental research live for I think; the “ah-ha” moments. RS: Do you have any in particular that you remember specifically going: “Oh this is…” FK: Well, some of them are, a bunch of them are really minor things. Like one of the minor ones that I had was early on when I was starting out my studies in Texas, I used to collect coyote carcasses’ from government trappers. And I would look at the stomach contents to see what they were eating. And I remember from this one location I kept finding what obviously was cowhide: no meat, nothing, just cow hide. And it was just one of those puzzling things you know. Why is it that? And, one day I was out on that ranch and one of the people that was there whose duty was to go out and shoot a cow and butcher it and bring it in. So I because at the time I just went along with people, just to see what was happening. So he killed a cow and they butchered it out there in the field and took the meat back to the cool shack to spread out to the families that belonged on that ranch. But the hind and the internals and everything were just; they dug a hole and put ‘em in it. I said “Ah ha!!” RS: Free food for the coyotes… FK: And you know that was just, it’s a very minor thing but those sort of things, you never know when you are gonna run into those things that suddenly give you insight into something. I mean the other time I found, I was looking at studying coyote droppings to determine what they were eating. I literally had thousands of them. This one time of year I kept finding little sharp pieces of grass and I couldn’t, it looked like they were eating cow dung or something like that. And it didn’t make much sense to me. Then one day I just saw these little insect cocoons that were hanging on a fence. The worms had climbed up there and they had created a cocoon by cutting short pieces of vegetation and wrapping it around themselves and secreting a [?]. And it suddenly dawned on me that the same coyote droppings that had these short pieces of grass on them, also had insect parts in them. So they would go along the fences and pick it, pick these things off them. RS: Like berries. Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  15   �FK: And eat them like berries. [Laughing] RS: That’s fascinating. FK: It also meaning, with eco coyotes being a carnivore but certain times of the year in Texas 90% of the diet is fruit. You know it’s no big deal, but it’s just one of those things of how really amazing how versatile they are as a species. Someday I’m going to write a book about some of the neat little things about me. RS: That would be great! Well, now that you are retired and when the farm settles down a little and you have a little more spare time maybe you can. FK: Well I built the last fence already so. RS: Well, I’m glad your wife likes it now too! That’s right; I wanted to ask you a quick question about her; probably not related to the project. But you said she went to West Virginia Wesleyan? FK: That’s where she started going to school. RS: Is she from West Virginia? FK: No, she is from western Pennsylvania. RS: Okay. I’m from Maryland and I went to West Virginia University so I know West Virginia. FK: Oh, no she went to West Virginia Wesleyan for a couple years and then she had to decide if she was going to go back to school or if she was going to go to Texas with me. [Laughing] And so she and we started raising a family. She did take time, she took some courses at the Trinity University in San Antonio. And then she actually, in 1972 we moved to Logan, she actually finished her degree at Utah State in Environmental Studies. RS: Did you have influence on her for studying that or that was her own interest. FK: No, that was her interest. And it was, it has been sort of interesting. She has always had (It’s sort of interesting how peoples career sort of wobbles around frequently) but she has always had an affinity for older people. I mean just grandmothers and just old people in general. And after she got her degree here she was not especially an outdoor person at the time. But she must have been 40 at the time when she signed up to be a true leader on the YCC program; which is the Youth Conservation Core. And they were going out in the Logan  Canyon  Oral  History  Project:  Fred Knowlton     Page  16   �Logan Canyon, I mean in the surrounding area. They were rip rapping streams and they were building fences and they were building trails and all that sort of thing. And sometimes they’d go out Monday morning and come back Friday evening; and camping out in the meantime. It almost seems out of character at the time, but it was something she did. But at the same time she had an interest in gerontology; so she pursued some studies in that and eventually she became the activity director at Sunshine Terrace here in Logan. She was in the activities department there for 15 years. RS: Wow; good thing she liked grandmas, huh. FK: Yeah! Well, I mean that was her plan she, she eventually, she retired 6 or 7 years ago. But she still gets involved. RS: And you say you have three children… FK: Four. RS: Four children. FK: Two girls, two boys. RS: And are they, did they get… I know you said one is interested in horses and said why didn’t you buy the farm earlier? But are they sort of into using the land or living on… FK: One of them is a teacher in Ogden. And one works at local cheese enterprise. One was a mechanic for 20 years and currently is a long haul truck driver, and thoroughly enjoys it. And then the youngest one, which is the one that likes horses, got a PhD from the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. At the moment she’s, she has come back and taught Oceanography here at Utah State for two years but she is returning to Fairbanks in a month or so, where she’s going to be helping to coordinate, what they call the Census of the Seas. She’s into marine biology. And that’s a world-wide program. And she will be coordinating the near shore elements of that census. RS: Diverse group! Alright well, if you have anything else you would like to share, now would be great. And if not? FK: Well, it’s just that Utah environment is really fun to be around and it’s got variety and it’s pretty neat if you like the outdoors. RS: I think so too. Okay well thank you for your interview.
