Great Salt Lake Funding Amendments

This bill sends all brine shrimp royalty money to the Sovereign Lands fund instead of the Species Protection fund. $125,000 will be spent as the Great Salt Lake Advisory Council directs, and the rest must help the lake by leasing water to raise levels or funding brine shrimp health projects. This shifts money from general species work to targeted Great Salt Lake needs, aiming to protect wildlife, jobs, and recreation tied to the lake. Takes effect July 1, 2026.
