117TH CONGRESS REPORT
2d Session HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 117-570
BONNEVILLE SHORELINE TRAIL ADVANCEMENT ACT
NOVEMBER 16, 2022.-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the
State of the Union and ordered to be printed
Mr. GRIJALVA, from the Committee on Natural Resources,
submitted the following
R E P O R T
[To accompany H.R. 2551]
[Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]
The Committee on Natural Resources, to whom was referred the
bill (H.R. 2551) to designate and adjust certain lands in the State
of Utah as components of the National Wilderness Preservation
System, and for other purposes, having considered the same, re-
ports favorably thereon without amendment and recommends that
the bill do pass.
PURPOSE OF THE BILL
The purpose of H.R. 2551 is to designate and adjust certain lands
in the State of Utah as components of the National Wilderness
Preservation System.
BACKGROUND AND NEED FOR LEGISLATION
H.R. 2551 would remove protections from approximately 326
acres across four existing wilderness areas in the National Forests
adjacent to the Salt Lake City, Utah, in order to facilitate mecha-
nized recreational activities that would otherwise be inconsistent
with the purposes for which these areas were designated as wilder-
ness. The bill mitigates these removals by newly designating an ap-
proximately equal-sized parcel as an addition to the Mount Olym-
pus Wilderness in Utah.
The Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BST) is a regional multi-use con-
cept trail that will stretch 280 miles from the Idaho border to
Nephi, Utah. Currently, more than 90 miles of the trail are built.
The trail follows the shores of ancient Lake Bonneville along the
west slopes of the Wasatch Range and the east slopes of the
