UDOT hopeful about biodiesel

In the worst case, the I-15 SynCrete debacle, it started with the test strip on the I-215 belt route. It performed fantastically and lasted for years without a problem. So, because the test did so well, UDOT decides to change the formula (using a different aggregate than on the test strip) and starts laying it for many miles on I-15 before finding out their new formulation was no good. Ooops! There goes a few million down the drain.
Now, though the idea is terrific, they start seeding without knowing the correct depth to lay the seed.
Isn't there anyone with some judicious foresight at that agency? Or, even more importantly, isn't there anyone in state government with enough managerial insight to see a pattern of incompetence in that agency and do something more about it?
Otherwise, is just a futile exercise.
Explaining the limitations of roadside farming would be too time consuming. The liability of mixing farm machinery and highway traffic in close proximity is ordinary sufficient to deter roadside farming.
Congratulations, you got the $50,000. Who can argue with success.
Secondary benefits are:
1. Safe cushion for out of control drivers.
2. Wildlife feed.
3. Less mowing.
