Led by Mitt Romney, lawmakers complain Utah’s share of money to improve public lands is ‘shockingly low’
Feds handed out more than $1.6 billion under new fund meant to reduce backlog of maintenance programs nationwide.
(Nikki Boliaux | The New York Times) Hikers take in the view from the summit of the Angels Landing trail in Zion National Park, where the number of visitors has surged, Nov. 23, 2020. Utah received $7.3 million from the federal government to improve public lands, far below what Utah lawmakers say is needed.

Think new trails, remolded restrooms, repaved roads.
Utah has a lot of public lands. It also is a big driver of the fees oil and gas companies pay for using public lands. But the state did not get a big chunk of this new fund.
SALT LAKE CITY Utah s congressional delegation is letting Interior Secretary Deb Haaland know just how frustrated they are over a recent funding slight that ignored any of the maintenance needs in the state s five national parks and eight national monuments.
In a letter sent Thursday to Haaland and led by Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, the delegation pointed out that Utah received just $7.3 million for projects on Bureau of Land Management land, in sharp contrast to generous allocations made to other states, particularly those on the East Coast. The deferred maintenance award hardly reflects the scope of land, need for funding, or contribution to the federal government. Investments in maintenance backlog are necessary across the country, but to put our award in perspective, just 9.25% of the Commonwealth of Virginia is public lands, yet it will receive $247.5 million more than enough to cover our entire state s backlog, the letter reads.
