                                 A BILL


 
 To designate a mountain in the State of Utah as ``Miracle Mountain''.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Miracle Mountain Designation Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds as follows:
            (1) On September 13, 2018, the Bald Mountain Fire burned 
        nearly 20,000 acres of land in Utah.
            (2) Elk Ridge City, located in Utah County, was nearly the 
        victim of this fire.
            (3) Suddenly, the fire halted its progression and, instead 
        of burning into Elk Ridge City, stayed behind the mountain and 
        spared the city.
            (4) Congress, in acknowledgment of this event, believes 
        this mountain holds special significance to the residents of 
        Elk Ridge City and surrounding communities.
            (5) The presently unnamed peak has been referred to as 
        ``Miracle Mountain'' by many residents since the fire that 
        nearly went into Elk Ridge City.

    (a) Designation.--The mountain in the State of Utah, located at 39
