                                 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 that--
            (1) on September 13, 2018, the Bald Mountain Fire burned 
        nearly 20,000 acres of land in the State of Utah;
            (2) Elk Ridge City, which is located in Utah County, Utah, 
        was nearly the victim of the Bald Mountain Fire, until the fire 
        suddenly halted progression and, instead of burning into Elk 
        Ridge City, stayed behind the mountain and spared the city;
            (3) in acknowledgment of this event, the mountain holds 
        special significance to the residents of Elk Ridge City, Utah, 
        and surrounding communities; and
            (4) the presently unnamed peak has been referred to as 
        ``Miracle Mountain'' by many residents since the fire that 
        nearly spread to Elk Ridge City, Utah.

SEC. 3. MIRACLE MOUNTAIN.

    (a) Designation.--The mountain in the State of Utah, located at 39 
59' 02N, 111 40' 12W, shall be known and designated as ``Miracle 
Mountain''.
    (b) References.--Any reference in a law, map, regulation, document, 
record, or other paper of the United States to the mountain described 
in subsection (a) shall be considered to be a reference to ``Miracle 
Mountain''.
