Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill would allow off-highway vehicles to be used on specific roads within Capitol Reef National Park in Utah, including Burr Trail Road, Cathedral Road, Hartnet Road, and six other designated routes. Currently, off-highway vehicle use in the park is restricted, but this legislation would authorize it on these particular roads by applying Utah state law governing motor vehicle use rather than federal park regulations. The bill affects visitors and recreational users who want to operate off-highway vehicles in the park, as well as park management. No specific funding or implementation timeline is included in the legislation. The change would essentially defer to Utah's existing motor vehicle regulations for these specific covered roads within the park boundaries.
