The Star-Spangled Summit Act of 2025 directs the Secretary of Agriculture to issue a 10-year special use permit for maintaining a U.S. flag at Kyhv Peak Lookout Point in Utah's Uinta National Forest. The bill first offers the permit to Robert S. Collins of Provo, Utah, and if he declines, it prioritizes qualified Utah County residents, nonprofits, and volunteer organizations with relevant experience in flagpole maintenance. The permit holder will have no land use fees to pay and can reapply for renewal every 10 years, though the Secretary can terminate the permit early if maintenance standards aren't met. The bill exempts this project from the National Environmental Policy Act's requirements and allows the Forest Service to authorize reasonable access to the peak for permit holders. No specific funding is allocated in the legislation, and the Forest Service must issue the initial permit within 180 days of the law's enactment.
