[0:29] Nope, I found it.

[0:31] Okay.

[0:31] Okay, okay.

[0:33] Financial-

[0:35] The financials are for January through January 1st through February 28th.

[0:48] And the ground mine.

[0:50] Oh yeah.

[0:50] Okay, so checking account, the beginning balance was $8,861.82.

[0:58] No wait, it's a second here.

[0:59] Don't we do this out to Mona for the, to you said, to January 1st, but, but we didn't do

[1:08] to find that.

[1:09] So I get the, depending on when I get the statement is what I know for sure, like the

[1:17] interest in things so I always was just keeping you like a month behind so we

[1:23] only did December okay so yeah so this is the beginning balance of $8,000 and

[1:32] $61.82 three checks for written out one check 177 to mouse for our our dinner

[1:41] meeting for 150 check 177 to Jessica Shepherd for a reimbursement for your

[1:46] early quick books was $863.87.

[1:51] Check 178 for Jessica Shepard for December, January, February, monthly

[1:57] clerk wages for $825.

[2:00] The total of checks was $1,888.87.

[2:05] Know the POSIT standing balance was $6,972.95.

[2:11] savings account, $39,000, $8.16 beginning balance, two deposits for interest, $1 for $112.32,

[2:24] another for $98.54, any balance, $39,219 and two cents.

[2:31] We

[2:35] get a motion to approve the financial statement.

[2:44] I'll make a motion to approve the financial statement.

[2:47] Oh, second.

[2:48] All in favor.

[2:50] I have.

[2:51] I'm getting the second part right now.

[2:59] Okay, what bills do we have, Jessica?

[3:02] All I have is my district clerk wages for March for $275.

[3:09] I know JP you have some invoices and invoices?

[3:15] Yes, well it's a shared invoice.

[3:18] So it's just the art portion for the food for Chase

[3:24] through back to severe conservation district since they'll

[3:27] they'll pay them out right then everybody's splitting up.

[3:29] So it's 4.95, 7 ways,

[3:35] 70 dollars and 71 cents.

[3:39] And who's the invoice to?

[3:41] severe conservation.

[3:49] Do you need that detail as separate in the voice for the file? Okay, where do you just want that?

[3:56] If I can, if I get a copy of it. I can send it to you. And then, if you guys need to read that, it's kind of a whole lot of fun.

[4:05] I think what she's done in the past is she's got the copy just rolled it on the bottom with...

[4:12] I think I'll just make a copy right here, you know?

[4:14] Yeah, so then you put split, no, drop CD, portion or so, that's not.

[4:22] Okay, maybe that's it.

[4:23] Well, how much was it?

[4:25] $70.71.

[4:28] I don't think I know how to pay that much, but I ate more.

[4:31] Yeah, it was a good meal, I'm more than you.

[4:34] Yeah, that was worth it, just for me and you.

[4:38] you pay for the extra for the brisket for everybody, the brisket option, what now, I can't

[4:45] hear you but I'm sorry, say I got that ear off flat down, for next year from bumping

[4:50] it up to a three-meet plate he said Dave would pay for the rest of it, oh no, I don't think

[4:57] so, hey I can see why you're saying that because I couldn't hear, just say yes, well we need

[5:05] be the most important to approve the two checks that should be right now. I'll make

[5:11] that most of them. Second. All in favor?

[5:15] Aye, aye.

[5:19] Okay, give me the event. All the syrup. Did you ever get that figured out?

[5:25] I never figured out, so right. Okay, so that brings me to the ones these that I gave you.

[5:33] so there should be three of them this

[5:38] is the so the first one should be so

[5:49] the

[5:49] first one should be on the top say July through September 2025. So then at

[5:56] lists Dave, Marty, Gordon and Kate and Jack Kate. So this is showing you each quarter

[6:06] how much we need to pay you. I mean if you want to go if you want to look at it

[6:12] you want me to read it or just it's just for you guys to know and then you guys

[6:18] have to approve the payments. We write the check. So you guys are paying

[6:23] yourselves now and then you'll get reimbursed but that's how they're gonna do it

[6:30] now is this is what we have to make a check tonight.

[6:33] Yeah, check tonight to you guys.

[6:35] Okay.

[6:36] And then we will be reimbursed when I submit these questions.

[6:43] So is that one check or do you don't have to make

[6:45] a separate check for each quarter, do you?

[6:46] I

[6:49] don't think so.

[6:51] Because I've heard.

[6:52] Would you ask who will yes or so?

[6:53] So I just wondered if it was separate checks.

[6:56] I mean, if you make one check, okay?

[6:59] For all, so there's three quarters here.

[7:01] We haven't been made for, okay?

[7:02] Okay, so do we make one check for all three quarters or do we make separate checks?

[7:07] I think you can do one check for all three quarters

[7:09] You just have to have that number referenced for each one of the quarters of that check

[7:13] Well, okay, number four. So as long as that's in there, you should be fine

[7:17] Yeah, and I and in the little notes on the check, I will be able to write first second third

[7:25] Sarah reimbursement or something and then this does each one does go up to the state when I submit it

[7:32] so they will see how much each month is and it looks and they have a beginning balance of

[7:41] $2,800 is what up to is what I understand is what they allow for you guys allocates.

[7:50] $200.

[7:54] That's what they stuck on there.

[7:56] Oh, that's what the Sarah is allocated for.

[8:02] As a part of the budget.

[8:03] I pulled that from the budget of some submitted to them.

[8:06] Yeah.

[8:07] Yeah. So it's allocated.

[8:09] I mean, I don't, if we go over, I don't think it's,

[8:15] I don't think we will go over.

[8:18] But it's just kind of like our reimbursement form that we do every quarter.

[8:29] Okay.

[8:30] I just have to submit this every quarter.

[8:32] What about when me and Marty went down to the zone?

[8:35] So that's I was actually getting that information.

[8:38] Okay.

[8:39] So since we're now just barely having our median in March,

[8:43] I was gathering that information and making sure I have it.

[8:47] So that your guys is actually will be different for the third one

[8:54] Everybody's will be different because I didn't know who was gonna show up and who wasn't

[8:59] So I've put these I put the information on here. So Dave you should for

[9:06] Depending on how long our meeting is you're gonna receive about a hundred and fifty

[9:11] Dollars

[9:12] Well, he's okay. He didn't get paid for the last mileage. You went where'd you go?

[9:18] You went somewhere, was it St. George?

[9:20] Did you go to U.S.D. or something?

[9:21] I didn't make it to St. George's.

[9:24] You told me you didn't get paid for the last marriage.

[9:26] Was it a dirage field before you went with me?

[9:29] When we went down there that day, we was talking about this.

[9:31] You said you didn't get paid?

[9:31] Well, one was the last time we had a meeting in the dirage field.

[9:35] It was a...

[9:36] Last year.

[9:38] That was over the physical year and past the physical year, I think.

[9:43] I'm trying to think which one you would have had down there.

[9:45] if it was,

[9:49] it was ever meeting it.

[9:51] We would have had over there thinking it would have been

[9:53] the previous own meeting.

[9:54] They're my team wide deal.

[9:56] I don't own.

[9:58] Why don't you just give it?

[10:01] Figure it out now.

[10:02] There was a brand that put a conservation

[10:04] found, but I don't know if that was in Salina Hall.

[10:08] No, I didn't like that.

[10:10] So all we got is done.

[10:13] So, like, depending on how long our meeting is tonight,

[10:16] you're gonna get about $150 and then Marty you're gonna get about $230 and then yeah because I put

[10:31] a mile of drama here and then Kade depending on you're gonna get about $60 for this for the last

[10:40] quarter. So at the end of the meeting I can kind of, I mean, if our what we go two hours

[10:50] six, seven, eight. Yeah. That's, that's probably what we'll have to go on. It's okay

[10:57] to get that up short. It's a hundred and twelve dollars. Marty, that's

[11:08] at two, two hours for this

[11:10] median is $287.77,

[11:15] that's you to $203.55. That's for this today. That's all just the two

[11:25] meet the three meetings for you guys. Our normal meeting, the zone meeting, and then this

[11:30] meeting. Do you want to look at it? No, I'm just asking. So, so that 270 is all these three

[11:37] You got it together, plus a rich bill?

[11:38] Yep.

[11:40] And mileage.

[11:43] Because in January, it did go up from the 46 cents

[11:49] to 0.765.

[11:54] So it does make a little difference.

[11:59] But we do need a motion to pay you rights.

[12:05] Good.

[12:06] We got it.

[12:06] I'll make that motion.

[12:08] And we get a second.

[12:10] Off second.

[12:11] All in favor.

[12:12] all right

[12:18] anybody going to the water user meeting do

[12:28] you want to go on when's that

[12:31] next week 16 to the 18. Okay so question real quick real fast yeah do maybe we

[12:41] should hold off paying for the third quarter to our next meeting and then we can

[12:48] get everybody who goes I mean if you're not if you guys aren't going that's fine

[12:51] But I don't know if there's any other meetings that you guys are going to

[12:56] Well, the water is just the one that I can think of in the moment for March

[13:01] And if you're not going then yeah, we can hurry and pay him, but I guess I didn't think about there's a couple of others

[13:07] But they're gonna be in the next quarter. They'll be in June. Okay, so then we can pay you guys if you guys aren't going to the water

[13:13] Won't we go? Nobody going? No, where are you going?

[13:16] What is it?

[13:18] Monday through Wednesday next week

[13:20] Okay, then we will get you as paid tonight.

[13:22] Okay.

[13:23] Now hang off.

[13:26] Go on Monday.

[13:29] Okay, volunteer time.

[13:31] You got any?

[13:32] Morty?

[13:33] No, they say they pay me.

[13:35] No, I don't have any.

[13:38] It's like you're volunteer.

[13:42] That way you've gained three, I believe, for the last month.

[13:46] What's that?

[13:47] Three hours.

[13:48] Okay.

[13:52] And you've sampled?

[13:54] Yeah.

[13:54] Okay,

[14:01] go for tails. I just want to know if we can get you to make a flyer first.

[14:09] Yes, I can.

[14:10] Oh, am I out?

[14:12] Yes, I will put that on.

[14:13] Oh, I know about it. I already...

[14:15] And if you want to share that with me, I send it on all my social media and everything.

[14:20] Yep.

[14:23] Flyer. I will put my designing skills to maybe I'll just have my daughter do it.

[14:30] I have a staff assistant that does a lot of marketing. I can have her do it if you want me to.

[14:38] She's like, you know, I don't want to step on your stuff so fast.

[14:43] You don't have that stuff for you to do for that.

[14:46] Well, and I was thinking we're going to do that and go for the youth clinic for the

[14:50] trapping so I was thinking we could maybe advertise that together.

[14:54] If you guys is the border.

[14:56] You can send it to me and I could put in the

[15:00] I'm post office and I could probably put it in a couple of the businesses. That would be awesome. Here too, so they in every that will allow. Okay. That would be awesome. Yeah. I will make sure it's very specific, though, that the June at Conservation District is doing the bounty. Okay. So that is. And if you need information, have giver, microphone number, I can give her any information. You know, Jessica, you know, Jessica found. Oh, yes, I do. That's her. It's perfect.

[15:32] Okay, we've already took care of the shear forms, right, just good, they're all up to this up.

[15:40] Yes, yep, the shear has all been done.

[15:42] Okay, supervisor trained.

[15:46] With a local work group here, we didn't get to know each other, so I didn't think we'd

[15:50] get to know each other, especially where we're going to start any other business.

[16:00] Oh, I do need you guys to sign these waveforms so that when I submit this and it's good.

[16:10] Let's see this one.

[16:12] This one's the one.

[16:16] Okay.

[16:17] These pass up to Marty.

[16:22] Okay.

[16:22] I need it.

[16:23] I need it.

[16:25] I need it.

[16:26] I knew yours was there.

[16:32] So if you'll just sign there at the top, I will add the other meetings to this.

[16:37] Do we do the nominations today?

[16:38] Yes, we do.

[16:41] And then when I then I'll get you guys paid and...

[16:47] So then you'll add the one to Rich Hill on there?

[16:49] Yep.

[16:50] I'll add all the other ones on there.

[16:56] And tonight, right?

[16:57] Yep.

[16:57] And tonight's two meetings.

[16:59] Do we need another motion on nature?

[17:01] Let one go.

[17:02] No, that's good.

[17:03] Yep.

[17:03] Work it.

[17:06] And hold on.

[17:07] Let me make sure I might have you guys sign another one just because so that...

[17:14] Did I not make it? Just because it's easier. If you sign one, the mother will pass it to me and then

[17:27] then I already have them, so it's already that I can get them done and fast and submitted.

[17:37] So then you guys don't have to go on paying her a lot again.

[17:50] Okay, before we move on to J.P., did you get that form of discount?

[17:58] That's for you, Marty.

[17:59] He got it.

[18:01] He got random.

[18:02] Oh, this is your rounds?

[18:04] Yeah.

[18:05] Oh, yes, right there.

[18:07] All right, let me put these two on this one.

[18:11] And then I can get some signatures before Jake or from Jake and Marty tonight.

[18:18] And then FSA committee chair they told Parker come in that it was Dylan Jones. Do you know Dylan Jones?

[18:25] Yes, he's the FSA committee chair. That's what he was telling me.

[18:28] Yeah, I didn't know who it was but the last time I had these signs it was my Harper

[18:34] I was gonna call him but no, I didn't know it was Dylan Jones. It just changed and it's gonna change for the end, isn't it?

[18:42] Oh, no, you're right. He's been in for a year. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, so

[18:46] in the end of March, so we'll just grab him, or Dylan, Dylan Jones. He will be, you know what

[18:55] he left for you? I don't know where the airport road is, you know where the rest don't

[19:01] just part of this. Yeah, so if you go to the airport, just go north to the end and make

[19:07] it right, it's the first house right there.

[19:11] Just right west of George, you know where George

[19:13] Yeah, yeah, yeah, that would be probably be in the office or two

[19:19] Well, they won't until they're meeting but I get I'll get a hold of it. I know he's brothers, so

[19:27] All right, I

[19:35] guess we're down to you

[19:38] Sorry, okay

[19:40] Sorry one more. So I also gave you guys your city reimbursement form

[19:46] So this is for the third quarter

[19:50] This is what I have on it so far, but then I will add my monthly clerk wages also to that,

[19:56] and also the zone luncheon to that. And so it kind of just shows you what you guys will be

[20:03] reimbursed. If you guys will make a motion to approve this form, I will enter the stuff and

[20:13] Bring it up and then I will take it today and I will have him say

[20:19] If you want and then you risk think it

[20:23] Rainbow sauce also. I'll make that one

[20:27] All in favor

[20:34] Anything else? Yes, good. No

[20:40] Okay, we're down to you JP. Yes, sir. So just some quick program updates the

[20:47] the R.O. program is still rolling the same as it has since the last change in September,

[20:52] which if you do know that 4% standard rate across all loan terms and amount borrowed.

[21:00] I have heard that there's going to be some emergency disaster declared specifically for the

[21:05] drought, not saying that that's going to have, and you probably heard Jim say that he would

[21:10] be surprised if there wasn't.

[21:12] So that on the back of that Arnold handout, there's the EDRL and it has some

[21:17] language in there as far as the amount borrows, the interest-free period and then

[21:22] when the interest does take in and the rate. So, shorthand, first two years interest-free,

[21:29] the next five or three, I can't remember if they were five years, seven years. Is it five years?

[21:34] So the next three is two, seven, five percent? No, it's seven total.

[21:37] All seven total so the next five depending on how long you want to go, but yeah, max is seven

[21:43] Um, I think it's a hundred thousand other maxes out there said so yeah

[21:47] And that's for once that got out. I have people calling me about all kinds of stuff

[21:53] That did not pertain to the policy, but it's for

[21:57] How would you say cost recovery if you had to sell animals that you wouldn't have sold otherwise if you had supplement

[22:03] Feed when you wouldn't have had to supplement feed if you've had to hot water

[22:06] when you wouldn't have had to haul water so just keep track or let people know to

[22:10] keep track of that if they're interested. You do have to provide pretty detailed

[22:15] documentation in order to follow track for it to go. So if we get them right they

[22:19] would come to this board for approval and that's something that you would review they

[22:24] were asking. So Arno's still going. A water optimization grant closed they will be

[22:34] letting us know who is funded in the latest work I got from the planners was

[22:40] June and then the work that I've gotten from Waterrop was you will not wait till

[22:45] June so sometime before you're here in June that's about the best that they

[22:50] know I have and then our ag VIP soil health nutrient management program that's

[22:57] going to open up here in March, early April. So that's like the manure spreading or commercial

[23:05] spreading. And then they've tailored it more to fit a CSP layout. So they take into account

[23:11] what you're doing already on your on your operation, given you so many points for that to put

[23:15] you in a tier, along with the practices that you would be including in your plan. And then

[23:21] it's a set dollar amount per acre per tier, depending on your level of conservation that

[23:27] you're doing. So when that rolls out and I have a flyer, I'll give that to you as well.

[23:31] Our pollinator program opened up. That's Liz Hamilton up there at the state office.

[23:35] It's the native plant program so you can apply for your project on. You can use it in your

[23:41] yard. I think Tyrell's used it before the past. And I've got some in my yard and out by my

[23:46] garden. I think it was 90 plants or just overnight native pollinator plants that I got from

[23:53] I'm on a Drake system and just have a bunch of flowers.

[23:57] The idea is flowers are already in spring to late in fall, so there's something always

[24:03] flowering and pollinating.

[24:04] Yeah, it's just some big programs to help like the monarch butterfly and some of the bees

[24:10] and stuff like that.

[24:11] So it's good.

[24:12] And it's for anybody.

[24:13] It's an entity, producer, town, city, park, school, it's for people.

[24:30] I think she's supposed to be getting a flyer out and she might have done it today, I'm just having a look, but when I get that, I can get everybody to put out and put it out in school.

[24:40] Probably send it to you, Jake, if you guys don't already got it.

[24:44] And I don't usually get that one, so I think, and she just started, like this program just

[24:49] helped us.

[24:51] So aside from those programs, we have, and this kind of flows into what we're going

[24:58] to talk about local work group, but I can just suggest that here, the Grasshopper program

[25:04] is held by plant industry.

[25:06] Are you certified to do that, to do the applications and the counts?

[25:09] I was at one time, I'm not right now.

[25:10] Oh, okay. I can easily get my server right.

[25:13] Yeah, so I was talking to Mark Hillier about having a state employees get cross-trained

[25:18] because when it tends to come up, you have this much amount of time to get your application

[25:23] in and get the poison out.

[25:25] Forward.

[25:25] Oh, it's a point.

[25:27] Let's put it really far away, so they've had problems in the past getting somebody to come

[25:31] out, do the count, in a timely manner, and have that application sit in, so if we can provide

[25:38] that service for like it's me Jesse who's our new partner plan reason film

[25:43] more so this area as well and then a couple of the other state folks are there in

[25:47] Richfield to do the rest of the zone we're looking at doing that so that'll

[25:51] hopefully hopefully we won't need it I hide me down if you guys do that can I

[25:56] recircify with you yeah I'll let you know what Mark tells us okay and then

[26:03] that's any questions on program as far as any of those go I know there

[26:08] There was kind of a lot of information that we're kind of waiting to receive for them, but that's just kind of where we're at.

[26:13] We did, and it doesn't pertain too much to this side of the zone, but he can do a lot.

[26:19] So the middle of your team, Sam Pete, down to Paiute and Wayne, they hired a conservation district planner.

[26:26] His name's James Longmore.

[26:30] He pretty much services for his agreement over there, but if we have projects and stuff and get him used to the area,

[26:35] we bring over here sometimes so he just started the test. We're supposed to be

[26:39] getting one and Miller. I don't know how that grant was structured. I'm still

[26:43] looking into that as far as the submission. I had to submit it to oh what is it

[26:50] managed through any CD. And so there was just some budget questions on where it was

[26:56] coming. Hopefully we'll be getting a planner for this side as well. Something that

[27:03] got brought up at the miller meeting as you know they've had those data centers

[27:08] going out there and kind of the quest and acquisition for power and water they are

[27:18] going to be submitting a resolution as a board not so much as a stance against

[27:24] data centers or infrastructure more so for the protection of the ag land which is a

[27:32] little bit harder to not make it to pass a broad umbrella what you can say in

[27:40] there but specifically the water. I think they want to hit on the water more than

[27:45] anything as far as if there's so much water being allocated or purchased by

[27:49] these entities or corporations if there's a water restriction or cutback that the

[27:55] shares or numbers are not manipulated between ag water and industry. So

[28:01] So, especially if it came out of agriculture to be used, if agriculture water is affected,

[28:08] they should also be affected in the same manner, but in respect with water, you have treated

[28:15] fairly.

[28:15] They just wanted nothing to be skewed that would hurt you.

[28:18] But I can see that point, but also if you got 20 acre feet of water came, you're using

[28:24] an ag, and you sell it today, okay, for whatever you want, okay, and he takes that and turns

[28:31] it in the culinary water, okay? And so then the state gives you a haircut on that every time,

[28:36] okay? The state gives you a haircut on that. So like, if you got 20 acres feet, you'll probably

[28:39] only end up with 15, okay? But it'll be in culinary, it won't be an act. So I feel like he should be

[28:46] able to do what he wants to with it because he bought it from you. You got what you wanted, okay?

[28:51] The state in the haircut, he should be able to do what he wants with it. That's my opinion.

[28:54] And that's what they were saying, too. That's my opinion. And that's what they were saying.

[28:58] Part of it was they wanted, well, I think part of the resolution too is just saying that

[29:03] they support agriculture, like keeping it in ag, that was the second part of it, but

[29:10] they were talking the 15% reduction when it changed that 90 or that water right used

[29:15] from ag to, yeah, they ought to get ag in change from ag in it, probably, so yeah, so

[29:21] I don't know, they were talking just to treat, they wanted it, like, I mean, their concern

[29:26] is the pub and aquifer, you know, depletion, the states looking to put them under water management plan and so they're wanting to cover in their bases that all the farmers get cut, yeah, 25% industry right there next door also gets cut, yeah, that's a good point there.

[29:47] And they did too, or they say that they wanted to, you know, look like he said, if I bar it,

[29:57] or they say, it was...

[30:00] Call to order, so it can't be used for whatever I want to use a pointer. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. It was strictly just to protect on like the restrictions that that area would receive. They have one, they have one water, right? They wanted to hit everybody, right? Instead of only agriculture. All they, I guess even at the same rate, maybe on the industry, take a hit. I guess if it's very come and start cutting water percentage wise, they wanted to hit everybody.

[30:29] So they're going all over but they're going everywhere anymore, they're like, and there's

[30:36] just some concern and consideration I think that they want it where the resolution should

[30:41] have an effect right when it gets proposed is, hey, you know, nobody's, it's not like a situation

[30:47] where nobody's saying anything, we can just do, if we buy it we're good, no, it's the

[30:53] boards and the state need to be looking at the total allocation or is it even feasible

[30:57] in some of these places that are under a plan or just restricted water, it is.

[31:04] We did to print one a week ago, well two weeks ago, and it's one at the moment.

[31:08] They bought 27.6 acre feet of water from living, so that's coming out of irrigation

[31:15] and they're putting it in the kiln area, they'll get a haircut on it.

[31:19] So, that's going into that.

[31:21] And I can't, I've only had one phone call, but our Myrna, our lady puts in a paper, she put it in the day, she can use 300 acres of water, and I'm like, oh my god, Myrna.

[31:33] So, she said, so it's right there in the front of the paper table, and I'm like, I only had one phone call the day, also, but I thought I didn't have a way.

[31:43] It's not, they were very adamant on hitting on, we don't want to end in French on somebody's

[31:50] beat.

[31:52] And so it was just more so a concern of the management of the water.

[31:58] No, I get it, but I also get that if you own a piece of property and you want to put something

[32:04] on there, my feeling is, you should be able to do it.

[32:10] If you have some water and you want to sell it to Dave, you've had in your family forever,

[32:16] you should be able to do it.

[32:17] He should be able to do it with what he wants after you buy it.

[32:20] You get what you want out of it?

[32:21] He buys it.

[32:22] You know?

[32:22] And that discussion was at.

[32:25] And they are bored.

[32:26] They do not want you to step over that line.

[32:28] That's a little bit higher than what I'm listening to.

[32:31] That's kind of how I think.

[32:33] So they do after we were kind of talking about it, just to make it, I don't know, carry more weight,

[32:40] either have the support of the other districts in there, or maybe make that resolution a little bit bigger,

[32:46] especially for these areas that will be affected by that kind of industry.

[32:52] And they said that it's not that we disagree or think it's a bad thing or an anti-whatever, it's just...

[32:58] We don't want to be caught off guard on some of the water situation and how restrictions are made to us after the fact.

[33:06] So, Christy Davis is helping them draft that resolution whenever they get the draft and they're okay with it,

[33:12] which it sounds like they kind of want the support if willing from the other district so I can bring that to that.

[33:18] I should rate it, right?

[33:19] Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know.

[33:21] Now, I was going to just ask for your signature, but that was back up, brought up as well.

[33:27] So, going down to meetings, our zone does have the UCC tour and meeting this year, that's

[33:37] going to be in Richfield and at Snow College, I think is when the meeting is from 3 to 5.

[33:45] The tour is open to all conservation districts, that starts at 9 a.m.

[33:50] We will go to Redmond Salt Mine, they're going to do a salt mine tour, so if you haven't done

[33:55] the salt mine tour it's freaking awesome and you can go and do that and we're

[34:01] also going to look at their fodder system their milk production system and

[34:06] they've got some other agriculture out there. That is going to be June 2nd.

[34:13] Who's got the fodder system? Redmond. Oh Redmond. Yeah Redmond it was an

[34:17] It's a hard old project that they have not.

[34:21] Yeah, it's good they haven't set up,

[34:23] which is fine for production,

[34:25] but for touring, right to see the different stages,

[34:28] it's kind of hard to see, yeah.

[34:29] It's pretty neat.

[34:31] And it's an all part,

[34:31] it's an eligible practice on their art also.

[34:34] It's good to showcase.

[34:36] Yeah, I've learned an old project.

[34:38] I actually have, I have to meet with the gentleman

[34:40] in this area for that exact purpose project.

[34:45] So I just haven't got out there too.

[34:49] I've been invited a lot, but I've been on the tour.

[34:55] It's amazing.

[34:57] It's amazing.

[34:58] And so, let me just launch out there at the Gun Range.

[35:01] And it's pretty good food too.

[35:05] And then we'll kind of wrap up.

[35:06] We'll come up to Gun Assetto.

[35:08] So I hope in Jeremy Cresciensen with our land conservation program

[35:14] and the easements will be down there.

[35:15] we're going to look at a project in severe county that hopefully go over purpose and reason

[35:20] for conservation easement and how to structure. So that's kind of what I have going on there.

[35:26] Big meeting that you, if you can, I mean it is borderline required to come to is going

[35:33] to be our district strategy meeting. That's a letter B under six. That's also going to

[35:40] going to be in the rich field. It's going to be May 14th. All state legislature, county commissioners,

[35:48] they will all be invited to attend this meeting in a local government.

[35:53] All right. It's going to be at 6 p.m.

[35:59] But they had a week's time on that, Jim.

[36:01] Oh, I think it's a Wednesday, but I could be wrong.

[36:03] Yeah. Jake, are you with the men around here?

[36:05] Yeah, I think.

[36:08] Oh, no.

[36:09] May 4th.

[36:09] Third day.

[36:13] So our deputy director or director of conservation, the director for the Department of

[36:20] Ag and the commissioner will all be down there.

[36:24] And that is for an overview and a future outlook of what the district's goals and objectives

[36:33] will be moving forward in the next year.

[36:36] That's the information that was given to me.

[36:38] and then it is being hammered pretty good that we make sure it's in rich

[36:43] field so that and that one will also be a snow college in the admin building

[36:48] which is on the west side just right there by the baseball field I'll try to make

[36:54] that but I gotta get pet out of plank to make tend to the iron district man or

[36:59] not because he goes once he goes to the the health department of health in the

[37:09] I've been to a lot of them tours and all there for a while there's there wasn't nobody

[37:17] going to them.

[37:18] They was debating on, or they'd even have a meeting with the UCC tour with the meeting

[37:27] in all the tour part of it.

[37:29] And we're doing a little, it's going to be one day instead of two, I don't know if that's

[37:35] going to help or not, if you'll get more people that are wanting to come, do everything

[37:41] in the one day and then head back home, instead of trying to cut out to you.

[37:44] You can make it learn a lot and they're all been interesting that I went on.

[37:51] And it's to showcase our projects in our zone.

[37:55] So for this purpose, reason, year planning, that's the area that we're focusing on.

[38:02] But there is, you know, direction from above me to like, hey, if you ever have anything like this, again, maybe go down to Wayne County, go out to Juab, Miller's side, like, you kind of tend to stay, which the only reason we do is because Richfield is central.

[38:20] But other than that, we are looking for projects in the future to have.

[38:23] We're at the center of the state, do you know that state?

[38:25] We're at the state?

[38:25] Look on the naval backwards.

[38:27] On the map?

[38:28] Brian never told me that.

[38:29] Like the first week out here, yes sir.

[38:31] It's all so rich folks, really not central.

[38:33] So it's closer to the map.

[38:34] Yeah.

[38:35] I guess in the time of the state, yeah.

[38:36] That's true.

[38:38] So we're looking to do that by pretty sure that's where it's going

[38:42] to be.

[38:43] I'm trying to think if there's anything else we went over water

[38:47] users.

[38:48] You see two.

[38:49] So I think it's it.

[38:50] That's all I have.

[38:51] Unless I miss anything.

[38:59] Okay, hopefully we'll see you in May 14th.

[39:02] Good, Tyrell.

[39:03] You got anything for us?

[39:04] Just a couple of things and more in the welcome work for me.

[39:08] But for now, just an update program wise, we're in the middle of all of our rankings right now.

[39:13] I just kicked our deadline back to April 3rd.

[39:17] We've got to have all the applications ranked.

[39:19] I think we have around 135, 140 applications between the two counties, and we'll

[39:34] get a little

[39:35] less money.

[39:36] A lot of cases can be turned in type of a third or just your main goal, our ranking

[39:40] is the application's cutoff.

[39:42] It's like, we're always taking applications, we've got another batch too that's, it depends,

[39:51] yeah.

[39:51] We're all taking applications.

[39:52] But for consideration right now, it would be the next batch of money.

[39:59] We do have the RPP program, I guess, talked about that down the zone meeting, and that

[40:04] were required to spend 25% of our money in that RPP program.

[40:10] So that's a big question, nationwide.

[40:17] Yeah, that's kind of all I've got to guess for this.

[40:27] That's good.

[40:28] You got anything for, Jake?

[40:30] Yeah, go for bounty or you still three dollars, okay, so three dollars, and then who's the contact in the different cities?

[40:40] Guess I'm here nearby. I will be out on my own. Okay, and then it's Gordon Mona. Yeah. Yeah, okay, perfect.

[40:48] We just want to tell you all about it. Yeah, is there anything you want besides that specific thing?

[40:56] It needs to be 17 and under, right?

[40:59] So what you guys agreed on?

[41:01] It seems like it.

[41:03] Very decayed.

[41:05] Great.

[41:06] It's all right.

[41:06] From start, anytime, I already give the go-add to one guy,

[41:11] his kids, was anxious to get going out in Lovanna.

[41:14] They've already started.

[41:15] What's the budget for that?

[41:17] For $30,000.

[41:20] I was out at my, the drylin' alpha plots

[41:23] we have out there, the research farm.

[41:26] And I've got gophers in there, so I was thinking about how my kids come in and how it's a bit all set of drafts and stuff.

[41:32] Anyway, okay, perfect, I'll get that set and I'll get that done.

[41:36] I'm hoping to get it done within the next week, so it's advertised ready to go.

[41:41] On the Grasshopper thing, I don't think I'm un-certified, but I certified with Chris Watson.

[41:47] I think you can do it.

[41:50] I have so many names under that program.

[41:52] It's you never know. I know I haven't done it years though, so it'd probably be good if I double-check

[41:58] Went and did it again. Okay, so if you do do it

[42:04] Besides that I think that one thing and I talked to JP and Tiger all about this

[42:10] But I think doing a soil health day would be a good idea if we happen projects that are in this area and you guys would probably know a little bit better than me

[42:18] But we'll figure that out and I won't get some way for the milk

[42:25] No, I'm just joking, we'll figure it out, but it's always fun, yeah, so I just told you we lost money on your last day.

[42:33] Yeah,

[42:36] I think that's everything for me.

[42:37] Okay, I just need you to get through there.

[42:39] Yeah, at the bottom.

[42:41] Have you ever had your crops, holes in that thing, Jake?

[42:44] So the crops, those have already happened.

[42:45] I didn't have to do one poke there this year or so anyway.

[42:49] If we do anything, we're trying to...

[42:51] This field day, this soil health field day,

[42:53] I'm kind of using that in lieu of crop school, gotcha.

[42:56] I feel like the crop schools are a little too

[42:58] presentation heavy and you don't actually get

[43:01] to get out in my fields.

[43:02] We were talking about that too.

[43:04] We don't want to have an outreach day sitting

[43:07] in a chair, inside.

[43:09] We kind of want demonstrations, questions, hands-on stuff,

[43:12] so that works for us.

[43:13] That's right, we're on that too.

[43:14] So, yeah, let's put it together.

[43:24] So you have Jake. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I got one more thing to scholarship

[43:30] If we get that going the other

[43:32] Yeah, I've let the high school know I've let do they have our

[43:39] Applications I said I said them in email and give them now. Oh, okay because I had that I

[43:47] Talked to

[43:49] John Burton this

[43:51] yesterday I guess last night and he says he possibly got three or four of this year

[43:59] and he would get worked to home and I told him I think it or I knew you had already contacted

[44:06] the school.

[44:07] Yeah, your allergy just makes one happen.

[44:10] So I just told him to make sure he's had some before and he says I sat there and told

[44:17] because that's the easiest, it'd take you 20 minutes, half hour to an hour to fill out

[44:24] the application out and none of them, we've only had one and then a couple years we didn't

[44:31] even have any. So I brought up the thing down to the meeting, so about this and I actually

[44:39] liked the idea, I don't know if you guys liked it. I did. I thought maybe we should have them

[44:45] before they're eligible or before we give them the scholarship they need to come to

[44:50] meeting when they saw a controversial district meeting. I don't know what her

[44:55] belt thinks about that but I think that'd be good.

[44:57] Is that something we need to wait next year and have a

[45:00] Probably, but it's just, I just wanted to tell my, I just thought about it and it was kind of, yeah, I thought it was a good, good idea. But even after it, it's awarded or selected. So for you, do your selection. Well, I was going to say, I don't, I don't know, what's your thoughts? I was even wondering for this year, we haven't announced it yet, but for this year, if we give it to them, then say they need to come to a meeting or so. But or, or, or, or we could, I mean, because it's a little too late for this year. Yeah. But

[45:30] I mean, I would like to see him come to meeting and maybe next year we tell him if they're

[45:36] going to turn an application and they have to come to meeting.

[45:38] Well, that would be a good part for the nomination office.

[45:42] Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but I think we're too late for this year for that.

[45:46] Yeah, because you had an invitation after you awarded it.

[45:48] Yeah, so.

[45:50] What are you saying?

[45:51] That's a great idea.

[45:53] Well, to add to that, so when I went to college, I got this scholarship and my conservation

[45:59] district. I had no idea what they did till I got my job. I had no idea what a

[46:03] concept. And so that's what I appreciate Marty bringing up is I think it's a great

[46:07] opportunity. I said I asked him any questions down there. Well, I don't even think

[46:13] like you're saying it. I know for this year's too late but even making it like the

[46:18] youth of the younger generation aware for people that wanted to be nominated.

[46:22] What this kind of thing actually does, maybe they'll bring their mom or dad with too, so they learn what a district does.

[46:30] Just a thought, right?

[46:32] No, that's right.

[46:34] Yeah, I think we need to do that.

[46:36] Get it right in the application, that would be one of the requirements.

[46:43] Requirements.

[46:44] For the implementation right now, I'll put me a note that I'll put it in the application for next year.

[46:53] But it's already in there because we usually have the deadline. Like I have the deadline the day before our

[47:00] April meeting so

[47:05] Do you want them? Are you gonna award it and then they can't we can't as too late

[47:14] You're wanting to award it to them, but first they have to come to the meeting

[47:19] Well, I don't know I guess make it higher not out. Well next year for next year

[47:24] Next year, I think it should be come before we award it, huh?

[47:28] That's for next year, I think. I mean if you're gonna put in you need to come to one of these meetings

[47:34] Well, it's $500. I need to attend at least one of the meetings before the deadline. Okay, and I mean, God

[47:40] I go to meetings all day long get that much, you know, so then they need a 10 meeting

[47:45] So then we need to put the scholarship out pretty like a little earlier. Well, I need to know about it earlier

[47:52] Yeah, because we usually only have it in there for a month.

[47:56] Yeah, it's cool.

[47:58] We can get it in our room.

[47:59] Yeah.

[48:00] Watch out.

[48:01] They'll just come to your dinner meeting all the way.

[48:03] Let's come for a free meal.

[48:05] Okay.

[48:06] How's that all mine up?

[48:07] I think it was over here.

[48:09] I think Marty said that he was going to be to the awards assembly to present it this year.

[48:25] I'm not retired yet.

[48:27] Police is not on assembly now.

[48:29] It's pretty like a dinner.

[48:30] Yeah, all they change is they have it at night now, so you can make it, Marty.

[48:35] Can you use that?

[48:35] I'll use it at home.

[48:36] I have meetings at night today.

[48:39] Yeah, that way.

[48:40] Well, you used to use the excuse you was working during the day.

[48:44] Well, I know more than night now.

[48:46] They do serve refreshments.

[48:48] What is it?

[48:49] I don't know.

[48:49] And dinner is and I'm like I'm dinner too. Maybe they changed

[49:01] Anything else we need to go over all right, well a journey this meeting

[49:08] I guess we start our work

March 12, 2026 Meeting
