Ban on natural asset deals in Utah

This bill would bar natural asset companies from making any agreement about land in Utah. It would also bar agreements about natural assets on or in Utah land. A "natural asset company" would mean a firm that holds rights to an area's ecological performance or manages land for conservation, restoration, or sustainable management, or a similar organization. The bill text does not list exemptions, penalties, or an effective date. If enacted, this could reduce options for some Utah landowners who planned conservation‑finance deals. It could also protect landowners from certain corporate conservation agreements.
