This bill would direct the Division of Professional Licensing to formally identify which specialty contractor classification covers landscape work, and it would require licensed contractors in that classification to dedicate at least one hour of their existing six-hour continuing education requirement, completed every two years, to either water conservation landscaping topics—such as drought-tolerant native plants, efficient irrigation design, and addressing water scarcity in Utah—or fire risk management landscaping topics, such as designing landscapes and using materials like rock or concrete to slow the spread of fire. The bill also includes a coordination clause specifying how these changes should be integrated into the law if a separate bill, H.B. 40, also passes and restructures the same section of Utah's contractor licensing code.
