The Great Salt Lake Stewardship Act, the Mountain View Corridor Completion Act, and the Utah State Parks Adjustment Act cleared both chambers of Congress without objection and now head to the President’s desk to be signed into law. “These bills address some of the state’s most pressing needs—modernizing infrastructure, preserving the Great Salt Lake, and ensuring better management of our iconic state parks,” said Senator Lee. “I’m proud to see this bipartisan work advance to the President’s desk, where it will soon become law.” Great Salt Lake Stewardship Act Expands the Central Utah Project Completion Act’s water conservation program to include the entire Great Salt Lake drainage basin. The legislation unlocks tens of millions of dollars in unexpended budget authority to be used for conservation efforts critical to restoring the lake’s declining water levels.
