This bill addresses the statewide resource management plan.
This bill:
AI-generated summary, not yet reviewed by Better Utah staff. Please consult the bill text.
Utah maintains a statewide resource management plan — a document that outlines how the state believes public lands and natural resources should be managed — and this bill updates state law to adopt a new version of that plan, dated May 6, 2026, replacing the version dated May 7, 2025. The process for managing, modifying, and reporting on the plan stays the same: the relevant state office monitors compliance, reports annually to the Federalism Commission by August 31, and any future changes to the plan must ultimately be approved by the Legislature before taking effect. This is essentially a routine update that swaps in the newest version of the plan without changing how the process works.
