“They have the most restrictive development procedures I have seen in the state, particularly in requiring buffers and avoidance protocols even though in this case they are not mandated by state or federal cultural resources laws.”

The Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA) has submitted applications for two funding competitions under the Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean Ports Program grant opportunity, in collaboration with the Utah Division of Air Quality (UDAQ) and Union Pacific.

The Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA), in collaboration with Weber County, announced the official adoption of the West Weber Project Area Plan. This development marks a major step forward in sustainable industrial development and economic enhancement for Northern Utah.

In its ongoing efforts to prioritize environmental stewardship, the Utah Inland Port Authority (UIPA) is strengthening collaborations with community leaders and stakeholders for the proposed West Weber Project Area, focusing sharply on wetland conservation. 

The Utah Inland Port Authority is sharing an innovative initiative spearheaded by Utah Clean Energy (UCE) in partnership with Merge Electric Fleet Solutions. 

We are currently assessing the best strategies to apply for this funding in a manner that will maximize our contribution to cleaner air and a more sustainable future. 

This month, we put our boots on the ground and visited several wetland locations within the West Weber Project Area candidate. With a record-breaking snowpack from the previous winter and one and half consecutive years with above-normal precipitation, current conditions are particularly wet.
