Plain-English Summary

This bill would prevent natural asset companies from buying, leasing, or making agreements to control land or natural resources in Utah. Natural asset companies are investment firms that profit by managing environmental features like forests, wetlands, or water rights, and this law would block them from operating in the state. The bill aims to keep Utah land and resources under local or traditional ownership rather than allowing outside investment companies to control them.
