To amend the National Trails System Act to direct the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a study on the feasibility of designating the Bonneville Shoreline Trail.

# Summary of HR 3451 **What the Bill Would Do** HR 3451 would direct the U.S. Secretary of the Interior to study whether the Bonneville Shoreline Trail in Utah could be officially designated as part of the National Trails System—a network of scenic and historic trails managed by the federal government. The bill doesn't immediately establish the trail as part of the system; rather, it requires a feasibility study to determine whether designation is appropriate. **Who It Affects and Key Details** The bill primarily affects Utah residents and outdoor enthusiasts who use or would use the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. If the study determines the trail is suitable for designation, it could lead to increased federal funding, maintenance, and protection for the trail.

The bill was introduced by Rep. Mike Kennedy (R-UT) and addresses topics related to government studies, parks, recreation areas, and trails. **Current Status** As of now, HR 3451 remains in committee and has not been voted on by the full House of Representatives. This means it's still in the early stages of the legislative process and has not yet advanced to a floor vote.
