Summary

The bill lowers the ownership threshold that makes a company a "restricted foreign entity" from 51% to 25% and bars such entities from buying Utah land. The Department of Public Safety must keep a public list, investigate suspected transactions, and can fine non‑responding parties. It also requires the attorney general to work with the state’s facilities division when a restricted foreign interest is sold.
