Utah law already requires police to report suspected drug lab sites to local health departments — this bill expands that requirement to also cover hotels and motels where officers have reason to believe methamphetamine or fentanyl has contaminated part of the property, as long as officers have also directly observed drugs or drug paraphernalia (or obtained an admission from someone connected to the property) and have a positive surface drug test. It also creates a new, standalone section of law formally requiring local health departments to review those law enforcement reports, determine whether contamination exists, add confirmed properties to a public contamination list, and remove properties from that list only after verified cleanup.
