What this bill does

AI summary from the official description

The bill makes water data on golf courses that is given to Utah State University's Janet Quinney Lawson Institute a protected record under state records law, so the public cannot request it. It also requires a study of golf course water use and a master plan for state-owned golf courses, which the Division of State Parks must develop and report on.
