House Joint Resolution to Approve the Transfer of Land

Summary

The resolution authorizes the state to give the federal government more than 22,000 acres of land below the Great Salt Lake’s ordinary high‑water line. In return Utah will receive at least $60 million to be used solely for the lake’s benefit, while keeping all mineral rights. The move settles a dispute over 3,760 acres and sets up future rights if the federal government later sells the land.
