Extended hours, extended service  The Department of Natural Resources, like other Utah State agencies, will begin the 'Working 4 Utah' initiative on August 4. This means that all Department offices, including our division offices, will extend service hours from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m, Monday through Thursday. Business offices will be closed all day on Fridays. Essential field services, like law enforcement and park operations, will continue to operate as usual. As Governor Huntsman said, "We will conserve energy, save money, improve our air quality, and enhance customer service." |

| Director's message |
 "We applaud the Utah Legislature for their recent appropriation of 2.5
million dollars for watershed restoration projects. This money will
be matched by federal agencies, conservation groups and private landowners
to improve another 150,000 acres in 2007Healthy watersheds deliver five major results: 1) Increased water yield to our streams, reservoirs and underground aquifers. 2) Naturally filtered pristine water free of silt, ash or salts. 3) Reduced wildland fire fuels and expanded healthy forests. 4) Enlarged forage output for livestock and wildlife. 5)Augmented critical habitat enabling sensitive species to thrive. DNR focuses on watershed health to ensure that landscapes are productive and practical for multiple use. Our goal is to manage our watersheds for maximum natural productivity." Michael R. Styler, Executive Director |
