Upper Price River Watershed Project Act of 2025
Land Transfer: Federal Land to Price, Utah
Legislative Progress
Key Points
- This bill would require the federal government to give about 124 acres of land currently managed by the Bureau of Land Management to the city of Price, Utah.
- The city would be allowed to use this land for any public purposes it chooses, which could include things like local infrastructure, parks, or community projects.
- By passing this law, Congress would skip some of the usual rules and lengthy paperwork normally required when the government sells or gives away federal land.
- The transfer is intended to help the local community manage its own land and watershed, though the specific projects the city will build will be decided by local leaders in Price.
