Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This CD contains a 63 p. report of the task force to identify and promote the development of renewable energy resources to meet the goal of 20 percent of Utah's electrical retail sales by 2025. Work groups were established to identify energy zones for wind, solar, and geothermal energy resources. The Phase I report identifies energy zones (approx. 13,262 sq. miles) and an estimated 837 gigawatts of electrical generating capacity.

This book was released on 1976 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans across the nation are showing an increased awareness of the problems caused by the rapid and uncontrolled growth our country has undergone over the last fifty years. It is apparent to most that we can no longer abuse our natural resources as if they were inexhaustable . In the last few years, there has been a specific concern for prices, consumption, and energy conservation. These real concerns are moving us towards a reconsideration of our living habits that will certainly affect the future of residential planning and site design.

Book excerpt: As the world's population rises and becomes increasingly more urbanized, there is a greater demand on our resources. Current energy production practices are based on resources with finite supplies and are associated with environmental impacts such as greenhouse gas and particulate emissions, water resource use, and resource extraction. In contrast, renewable energy production is based on free, continually replenished sources with relatively few environmental impacts. Distributed renewable energy generation involves producing energy close to the point of consumption. The distributed generation model increases energy autonomy at the local level. Distributed renewable energy generation is fairly common at point of use. However, it is not common at the community scale, at least here in the U.S. Communities that wish to pursue local energy generation as a strategy to increase energy autonomy may not be aware of what resources they have at hand either in the form of renewable energy sources or in terms of available land for energy production, nor an understanding of how much of their energy consumption could be met by locally produced energy. This study explores the potential for local solar and wind energy generation on publicly owned land in Cedar City, Utah. The available public land was analyzed at two scales: within the municipal boundary and within 8 kilometers of the town boundary. Six scenarios were developed to represent different amounts of land given over to energy production in an attempt to meet the targets of 25%, 50%, or 100% of the city's annual energy consumption, and the amount of energy produced by each scenario was calculated. Within town, the opportunities for energy generation were fairly limited, though some strategies, such as installing solar panels at the point of use, would have value. In contrast, by expanding the scope to include an additional eight kilometers around the city, parcels of land were included for energy generation that would make a significant impact on the annual energy consumption of the city. This study highlights the need for planners and landscape architects at the city level who can take an active role in energy planning by identifying resources, evaluating alternatives, and make strategic decisions on land and resource use.

Download or read book Lost Landscapes written by Linda Dunning and published by Cedar Fort. This book was released on 2007 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utah is a land of untamed beauty. from the snowy peaks of the Wasatch Mountains to the brilliant red rocks of Southern Utah, the state boasts views and vistas found nowhere else in the nation. Travelers can glean a great amount of history from the scenes they see and the places they visit, yet there are other stories and legends that belong to Utah and her native land - tales that are not often told. Saltair was once the premier resort on the shores of the Great Salt Lake. Now it lies abandoned and in disrepair, almost mythical in appearance. Mount Timpanogos's unique shape subtly speaks the story of Utahna and the Indian brave who loved her. and not so long ago, the Anasazi Indians were a thriving people, destined for greatness - until they disappeared into the canyons from which they'd carved their civilization, leaving no clues as to their whereabouts. for young and old alike, Lost Landscapes will pique interest and raise questions to the mysteries lurking within Utah's borders. Whether it be the unsolved riddles of places, people, puzzling objects, or legends that have been passed down through the generations, everyone will find something that will have them eagerly turning to the next page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-1970s, government agencies, scholars, tribes, and private industries have attempted to navigate potential conflicts involving energy development, Chacoan archaeological study, and preservation across the San Juan Basin. The Greater Chaco Landscape examines both the imminent threat posed by energy extraction and new ways of understanding Chaco Canyon⁠ and Chaco-era great houses and associated communities from southeast Utah to west-central New Mexico in the context of landscape archaeology. Contributors analyze many different dimensions of the Chacoan landscape and present the most effective, innovative, and respectful means of studying them, focusing on the significance of thousand-year-old farming practices; connections between early great houses outside the canyon and the rise of power inside it; changes to Chaco’s roads over time as observed in aerial imagery; rock art throughout the greater Chaco area; respectful methods of examining shrines, crescents, herraduras, stone circles, cairns, and other landscape features in collaboration with Indigenous colleagues; sensory experiences of ancient Chacoans via study of the sightlines and soundscapes of several outlier communities; and current legal, technical, and administrative challenges and options concerning preservation of the landscape. An unusually innovative and timely volume that will be available both in print and online, with the online edition incorporating video chapters presented by Acoma, Diné, Zuni, and Hopi cultural experts filmed on location in Chaco Canyon, The Greater Chaco Landscape is a creative collaboration with Native voices that will be a case study for archaeologists and others working on heritage management issues across the globe. It will be of interest to archaeologists specializing in Chaco and the Southwest, interested in remote sensing and geophysical landscape-level investigations, and working on landscape preservation and phenomenological investigations such as viewscapes and soundscapes.
