Iowa DOT Asks Iowans to Put Safety First
Posted

2010
A series of winter
storms this year has caused many Iowans to become stranded or their
vehicles to run off the road. No one can predict when he or she might
become the next victim of bad weather, but we can all be prepared just
in case.
It can happen to you. The Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) has
developed a short video that identifies the basic necessities that you
should carry in your vehicle, and describes what you should do if you
become stranded.
To survive, stay inside your vehicle and use the resources in your
survival kit. Do not attempt to walk for help or try to remove your
vehicle from the snow.
Don’t put if off any longer. Now is the time to assemble your survival
kit. Learn what to carry and tips to survive by watching this new video

Two New 'Wild' License Plates
Revealed
Posted
12
January
2010
Two
new
Iowa
license
plates
to
help
fund
natural
resources
will
be
available
for
purchase
at
county
treasurers'
offices
this
spring.
The
plates
were
unveiled by Lt. Gov. Patty Judge Saturday at the State
Capitol during the Resource Enhancement And Protection (REAP) Congress.
The two new designs,
featuring a brook trout and a deer, will attract
two of the largest groups of Iowan outdoor enthusiasts, anglers and
deer hunters, said Ross Harrison, DNR REAP coordinator. The license
plates were designed by Cedar Rapids artist Greg Bordignon. At a
purchase price of $45, and annual renewal of $25 for the numbered
plates, the REAP program receives $35 from each purchase and $10 from
renewals. The DNR's Wildlife Diversity program gets $10 from the
purchase and $15 from renewals.
The two new plates
join three others dedicated to those natural
resource programs: the goldfinch/rose, pheasant and eagle plates which
together generate about $1 million a year and outsell all of the
state's other specialty plates. Bordignon also designed the current
pheasant and eagle plates.
Harrison predicted
the two new plates may double the current income
within two years because of the popularity of the designs. "The brook
trout is Iowa's only native trout, and is the best indicator of water
quality of any fish species."
REAP provides funding
to cities, counties and state conservation
efforts, as well as to landowners and conservation organizations and
individuals. Currently funded at $18 million in appropriations from
state gaming revenues, the license plate income is added on top of that
amount. REAP's public participation component includes a congress every
two year for citizen input into running the program.
The DNR's nongame
wildlife program uses its license plate revenue to
match federal money for projects dealing with wildlife that are not
hunted or fished, and therefore not managed by use of hunting and
fishing license revenue.
