Grazing Permits Amendments

HB 371 requires Utah's School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA) to prioritize multiple purposes and sustainable use when managing trust lands held for public schools and institutions. It prohibits SITLA from issuing grazing permits for land that could be used for grazing, ensuring these lands are actively utilized rather than left vacant. The bill amends existing laws to formalize these management principles and clarify permit terms based on fair market value. These changes directly affect SITLA, land users, and beneficiaries of trust lands, with no new funding required.
