Summary

The bill creates a streamlined permitting process for critical‑mineral projects, adds tax credits for exploration activities, and sets up several dedicated state accounts to fund water infrastructure, income‑tax relief, and Great Salt Lake watershed protection. It also creates a new Department of Natural Resources, a Critical Minerals Council, and related programs to guide the state's critical‑mineral strategy. The measures aim to increase Utah’s share of U.S. critical‑mineral supply and processing while directing new revenue to local reinvestment.
