Seven miles southwest of Vernal a large site could pave a standard width highway from Vancouver, Washington to Miami, Florida. Vermal area savings fund street and private drive projects as Standard Oil of Ohio explores oil extraction. Vernal City and Uintah County retain use of asphalt for residents even if commercial development proceeds.
