"essential to Washington County"
"One of the counties I am honored to represent in Utah's 2nd District is Washington County."
"I especially want to thank Representative Chris Stewart for his work on this balanced legislation, which is vital to the future of the desert tortoise and Washington County, Utah."
"the county is operating under the old HCP that has been extended by the USFWS while the county works in 'good faith' to renew the permit."
