Fighting for LAwful Public Access Since 2010

We Believe in Public Access

The Utah Stream Access Coalition (USAC) is a grassroots organization dedicated to preserving and restoring public access to Utah's waterways. Founded by concerned anglers, boaters, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts, USAC advocates for the rights of all individuals to enjoy the state's rivers and streams for recreational purposes, such as fishing, boating, and wildlife observation. By engaging in legal battles, community outreach, and legislative efforts, we strive to safeguard access to these natural resources, ensuring that they remain accessible to present and future generations. Through our efforts, the Utah Stream Access Coalition stands as a beacon of advocacy for public lands and waters, championing the principle that these treasures should be enjoyed and protected by all.
