Pitcher to offer a Compromise. It will be meeting at the Utah State Capital on Friday, February 15 at 10 AM.

Via the coalition: “HB68 was written by Rep. Kay L. McIff as an attempt to protect the HB141, also known as the “Public Waters Access Act” which slipped through the legislative process by McIff without time for public scrutiny. HB141 made public access to over 400 rivers and waterways closed off and susceptible to criminal trespass offense for the public to recreate in public waters that flow over private property, with the exception of floating as long as the bottom of the river is not touched.”
