The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

Lt. Gov. Greg Bell says Utah’s economy is going great guns but faces a future of stunted job growth if it doesn’t improve its education system.

The way to address the problem, he said Wednesday, is to get more students in smaller classes studying engineering. To pay for that, he said, the state needs to get hold of the oil and mineral potential on Utah’s federal lands.
