"UTA board member Terry Diehl has been associated with Whitewater. He has declared a conflict of interest on the matter with UTA, the agency has said. Though Frankel wonders if he declared the conflict only after he began work with Whitewater."
Of course he declared the conflict after he began work with Whitewater. Before he began work for Whitewater, there was no conflict to declare. Duh!
The achaeological site needs to be protected. The wetlands need to be preserve.
There are federal laws already on the law books that protect archaeological sites: 25 USC section 3101; 42 USC section 4321; 16 USC section 1531; 16 USC section 470; 16 USC section 470aa; 25 USC section 3001, etc.
UTA infrastructural development cost derives from federal funds. Therefore, Stats using federal funds abide by federal laws.
The reality is that much of the property to the north of the "sensitive" property is privately owned. If the stakeholders don't agree to moving the site closer to Bangerter Highway, the development can still be built with no interference from the Army Corps or so-called "environmentalists" and any Native American relics on the private property can be bulldozed and/or sold on eBay.
