Moab UMTRA Project Transition Act of 2025

Summary

The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Subcommittee on Public Lands, Forests, and Mining held a legislative hearing on December 2, 2025, to examine 19 bills addressing public lands management, conservation, and resource development. The bills covered diverse topics including wildfire mitigation and response standards, forest health initiatives, wilderness and wild scenic river designations in multiple western states, mineral leasing reforms, and land transfers and exchanges. Specific bills examined included measures to address forest health crises, establish wildfire response time standards, designate wilderness areas in Colorado, Oregon, and Washington, protect roadless areas in national forests, and facilitate land exchanges in Alaska and Utah. The Bureau of Land Management and other federal agencies provided testimony on the legislation. The bills reflected a range of policy priorities, from conservation and wilderness protection to resource development and land management efficiency. Some bills focused on specific state needs, such as travel management plans in Utah, economic development in Nevada, and land conveyances in Colorado and Utah, while others addressed broader national forest and public lands issues. The hearing represented a legislative review process where committee members and federal agencies examined pending bills before the subcommittee decided whether to advance them. A hearing does not guarantee that bills will move forward; further committee action and votes are required for legislation to advance to the full Senate.

Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. Ordered to be reported with an amendment favorably.

Committee

Summary

The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources held a business meeting on February 4, 2026, to consider a diverse package of 30 bills spanning public lands management, conservation efforts, and historic site designations. The bills addressed varied topics including travel management plans in Utah, wildfire response improvements, emergency communications upgrades in national parks, water conservation programs, wilderness designations, ranger district transfers, and the establishment or redesignation of historic sites and memorials across multiple states. No witnesses were listed for this business meeting, which is typical for sessions focused on committee consideration and procedural votes rather than substantive testimony. Business meetings differ from legislative hearings in that they involve committee members voting on bills rather than hearing public testimony. The bills ranged from relatively narrow measures, such as renaming interpretive centers and amphitheaters after notable figures, to more substantive policy changes affecting federal land management and conservation programs. The package included bills to designate new national historic sites, expand national park boundaries, establish memorial museums, and authorize funding for river restoration and species conservation initiatives. As with all committee business meetings, consideration of these bills does not guarantee their advancement. The committee's actions at this meeting would determine whether individual bills move forward for further consideration by the full Senate.
