SB 42 Utah Senate · 2026 General Session

State Weed Committee Amendments

SB 42 extends the repeal date for Utah's State Weed Committee from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2036. This procedural bill does not change the committee's structure or duties - it continues to advise on noxious weed programs with members from agricultural agencies, universities, and industry groups. The bill makes only technical adjustments to align the committee's termination date with other related statutes. It has no budget impact and does not alter existing policy or responsibilities.
