St. George, UT, April 20, 2010 — Tonaquint Data Center (TDC), announced it has completed its primary data center colocation space. Phase II expansion is now under way with contracts locking down an additional 2,700 square feet of data center space. Phase III construction will begin second quarter 2010 for an additional 9,500 square feet and will be available for occupancy third quarter 2010. In addition, a secondary 2 Megawatt generator has been integrated in the facility's grid for additional backup and redundancy. A third 2 Megawatt generator is slated for third quarter 2010 operations.
In addition to the physical expansion, Tonaquint has deployed its virtual environment and hosting solutions. Matt Hamlin, CEO of the Tonaquint Data Center stated, "From SAN replication to virtual hosting, offering these types of virtual solutions provides us the ability to meet the wide array of customer needs and demands. It meshes really well with our customer's disaster recovery and colocation environments."
When these expansions are completed this nearly 40,000 square foot facility will have full data solutions services including Collocation, Disaster Recovery, IT Infrastructure Outsourcing, Remote Management Services, Managed Services via 3rd party providers including Level 3, 360 Network, Qwest, South Central communications, and Utah Interlinx, and many other services. Hamblin stated, “The data center will be the only tier 3 rated data facility between Salt Lake and Las Vegas.“
When the Tonaquint Business Park launched in 2002, the vision of the park was seen as the premier ‘hi-tech’ business park in the southern Utah region. Included in these objectives was the ability to bring broadband technologies and top tier data storage to hi-tech companies and institutions throughout the region. Companies needing large bandwidth, data storage, and high power density will now have a local alternative to the Salt Lake or Las Vegas markets for this type of facility.
Smaller businesses have also been able to take advantage of this facility. It is an opportunity for companies to store their back up data in a more secure location, where they can feel confident that their important information will be safe from environmental, and accidental incidents.
The Tonaquint Data Center is also considered a collocation facility where businesses requiring a high level of system reliability and security can locate, network, and interconnect to a number of global fiber optic networks. Collocation space is becoming popular because of the time and cost savings companies achieve as a result of using shared data center infrastructure.

Third Fiber Path Improves Redundancy and Speed. New business VPN services available.
St. George, Utah – April 23, 2010 – InfoWest today announced the completion of a number of major upgrades to its network capacity. The upgrades more than double InfoWest’s bandwidth to the internet and provide a third redundant fiber path out of the area. Additionally, InfoWest core network upgrades will now allow InfoWest to offer carrier-class virtual private networking services to area businesses.
Another First in Southern Utah
Over five years ago, InfoWest became the first Internet provider in southern Utah to utilize dual, redundant fiber-optic paths to the Internet. The dual paths helped them avoid outages when fiber was cut twice in central Utah. Today, a third fiber-optic connection more than doubles their capacity, and adds another layer of resiliency to their network. The new fiber connects to a regional network hub in Salt Lake City from which InfoWest interconnects with top-tier Internet providers. The connection also allows them to better serve businesses that have locations in both northern and southern Utah.
Today InfoWest has one fiber optic internet feed to Southern California and two feeds across diverse geographic paths to separate locations in Northern Utah. Plans are in the works for additional capacity upgrades in the near future.
“We look forward to increased demand for Internet services in this area, and this expanded ‘pipe’ to the Internet will help us stay ahead of the game,” said InfoWest Vice President, Randy Cosby. “We are looking past today’s slow economy so we can be ready to provide reliable, next-generation services tomorrow.”
Core Network Upgrades Expand Business Services
Upgrades to InfoWest’s core fiber-optic network in Washington and Iron counties, as well as their new northern Utah point of presence, allow them to offer full virtual private networks for clients between multiple locations. Using the latest MPLS (Multi-Protocol Layer Switching) technology, InfoWest can inexpensively interconnect multiple office locations, as well as provide increased quality of service for voice, video and internet. InfoWest uses MPLS internally to ensure performance and reliability on their local fiber network. That network feeds wireless towers and fiber-optic internet connections that serve thousands of business and residential customers in the region.
More upgrades are on the way. Plans are in the works to increase the speed of their local core fiber network by 1000%, and additional regional fiber paths are being studied.
About InfoWest
Based in St. George, Utah, InfoWest was founded in 1994 to provide high speed Internet services in areas across the state of Utah. InfoWest offers internet services ranging from high speed T-1, DSL, wireless, fiber-optic access and telephone services for both business and residential clients.

Saint George, UT, April 27, 2010 – You brought them. University of Phoenix boxed them, and will now deliver them to the Washington County School District. Your donated books will change lives. From April 5-23, Donation Bins were set up at University of Phoenix – St. George Campus. Over that time, 45 boxes of gently used books were received and will now be delivered to benefit students and families in Washington County.
This donation project was in celebration of Earth Day. The books will go to the Washington County School District and if any books can’t be used by the school district, they will be donated to the Washington County Library and in turn the books will be channeled to where they can do the best good. All types of books, from children’s to adult’s, hardback and paperback, were donated. Greg Robinson, Operations Supervisor for University of Phoenix, St. George Campus stated, "This continues to prove that southern Utah residents care about their children and the environment to make this donation project such a success. Those books that are too worn will be appropriately recycled while others may be sold to raise funds for new books. Utah elementary schools, Boys & Girls Clubs, and other literacy programs that serve children in need will be the recipients."
“Currently, 61 percent of low income families have no children’s books in their homes and that is tragic,” said Darris Howe, VP/Director of the University’s Utah Campus. “With help from the people in our surrounding communities lie we have recently seen, we can drive that number down.”

Kanab, UT, April 9, 2010 —Like all of communities in Southern Utah, Kane County and particularly the county seat of Kanab has struggled from its founding in 1864 to maintain a reliable water supply to its citizens.Not until the late 1960’s when wells were tapped into the huge Navajo Sandstone aquifer, did culinary water become more available and secure. However, reliable irrigation and secondary water for gardens, parks, schools and irrigation surface water, and the means to utilize the spring runoff and fluctuating flows of the Kanab Creek has been an elusive dream.That dream will now finally become a reality on April 16th, at 4 PM, as the Kane County Water Conservancy District announces a groundbreaking and the beginning of construction of the 4228 Acre Foot Jackson Flat Reservoir. Under the direction of the Board of Trustees of the District, the project was placed on the master plan in 1996 as one of its major long-term goals; to establish a storage reservoir to capture the flows of the Kanab Creek enabling a more reliable use of the water in the growing season.The water rights on the creek, which are owned as shares (5000 total) by farmers, the Kane County Water Conservancy District, the Kane County School District, and hundreds of citizens in the community, will be partially stored in the off stream reservoir during the winter and early spring run-off period, allowing for a more efficient use of the water during the critical summer months.
A cooperative effort by the Kanab Irrigation Company, the Kane County Water Conservancy District, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Utah Department of Water Resources, the Utah Institutional Trust Lands, Utah Division of Water Rights, Utah Division of Dam Safety, Kane County Commission, Kanab City, and elected officials, including Senator Robert Bennett, was critical in being able to bring the project to the construction phase.The majority of the land (approximately 400 acres) needed for the reservoir was purchased from the Elmer and Leah Jackson family, while other critical smaller parcels were purchased from adjacent landowners through cooperative sales and exchanges of properties and easements.Alpha Engineering, under the direction of Brent Gardner and RBR Engineering under the direction of Brad Price, completed all of the detailed surface and underground investigations and the final design plans and specifications for the dam.Dave Marble of Utah Dam safety and the Army Corps of Engineers conducted full review of the plans and specifications.The Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento Office conducted a detailed environmental assessment of the project over a 5-year period with support from JBR Environmental.
Extensive archaeological sites discovered in the area of the dam have been excavated and mitigated with cooperation of the Kaibab Indian Tribe, the Utah Division of Indian Affairs, and the work of three archaeological consultants, HRA Archaeology, BYU Archaeology Department, and Big Horn Archaeology.All of the archeology work was done under the direction and management of SITLA lead archaeologist Kenny Wintch, with cooperation of Richard Perry from the Army Corps.Work is now in progress to determine the type of recreational activities that will be considered for the lake and the surrounding land.Mike Noel, General Manager for the Water District would like to see the area used by Kane County Citizens and visitors alike.“With the help of Utah State University Department of Recreation, we have a preliminary recreational plan for the site. The Board of Directors will be working with Kanab City Officials, the Parks and Recreation Board and interested parties, to develop a suitable recreational use plan for the 400 acre site,” announced Noel.
The highlights of the ground breaking will include an Open House with a light meal served, a meet and greet, and an overview of project from 4:00 to 4:45 p.m. attended by special guests, Utah Senator, Bob Bennett and Utah Governor, Gary R. Herbert. The Groundbreaking Ceremony will take place from 4:45 to 5:15 p.m. The Open House and groundbreaking ceremony are located at the Jackson Ranch House (2151 South Hwy 89 A) across from the Kanab Airport, Kanab, Utah. Signs will be posted along the way pointing the direction to the Ranch House. Refreshments will be served, please RSVP your intent to attend to Donna Ray at the Kane County Water Conservancy District offices, 435-644-3997.
The public is invited to attend. Please join us to learn more about this exciting project.For more information contact KCWCD, 190 West Center Street, Suite 200, Kanab, Utah, 84741, or call (435) 644-3997, or visit www.kcwcd.com.

Project Need:
Kanab Creek is the major source of water supply for irrigators in Kanab, Utah.However, flows in the Creek have not coincided with the irrigation season.During the dry summer months there has not been an adequate water supply.The irrigation company spent considerable funds in the early 1980’s to pipe the open canal system to reduce evaporation and seepage losses.However, Kanab Creek has highly variable flows ranging from average flows of 10 to 24 cubic feet per second (cfs) during the winter months to average flows as low as 6 cfs in the summer.
Over the last several years the Kane County Water Conservancy District, working in conjunction with the irrigators, have been trying to find an economically viable method to store high flows during the winter months so they can be available to provide a full water supply during the irrigation season.The Jackson Flat Water Supply Storage Facility has been the culmination of this effort.The existing irrigation piping network has been used to gravity flow water during the winter months to the Storage Facility.This water is then available during the irrigation season to provide a full water supply.
Description of Project:
Alpha/RB&G Engineering completed a feasibility report for the Jackson Flat Water Supply Storage Facility project in November of 2003.This report identified the project was viable in the location known as Jackson Flat and the Kane County Water Conservancy District proceeded to work to obtain the property and funding for the reservoir.The District was successful in obtaining partial funding for the project through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Section 595 program.As a condition of the funding, the next phase of the project was to complete an environmental analysis.The environmental work started in 2004 and was finally completed and approved in 2009.The Alpha/RB&G design team worked on the design as necessary to support the environmental work and completed design in November of 2009.The project was advertised and contractor prequalification was completed in February.Bids were received in March.The successful low bidder was Legacy Construction and Development from Mesquite, Nevada.
The Jackson Flat Water Supply Storage Facility has the following major elements:
