| Utah Construction Registry
|
The Utah Legislature passed legislation in 2005 modifying the mechanics' lien statute which requires the filing of notices of
commencement, preliminary notices, and notices of completion for both residential and commercial projects – in order to protect
lien rights – in an exclusive statewide electronic database named the State Construction Registry (SCR).
The concept is an online "bulletin board" identifying those who provide labor and materials to a construction project,
which may enable interested parties to assess exposure and minimize risk. As defined in the law, the SCR is implemented in
two phases: May 1, 2005 for commercial and public work construction projects and November 1, 2005 for residential construction
projects. For more information visit the Utah Construction Registry.
