University of Utah Research Park Act
HR 5768, the University of Utah Research Park Act, transfers ownership of approximately 593 acres of land in Salt Lake City from the U.S. government to the University of Utah. The bill releases the government's reversionary interest (the right to reclaim the land) without requiring payment, specifically for land described by its 1968 patent and survey details. This directly affects the University of Utah, granting it full ownership of the land designated for its research park. The bill makes no new policy changes but finalizes a property transfer that has been pending since the land was originally patented.
