Adopted in 1913. The original Utah State Flag consisted of a solid white state seal on a light blue background which was adopted by the State Legislature in 1896 and revised in 1913. The current Utah State Flag was originally designed for the battleship Utah in 1912. It was later made the official flag of Utah in 1913. The Utah State Flag has a blue background with the (ed. inner portion of the) State Seal inscribed in the center within a single gold circle. In 1922, changes were made in the state flag which were not consistent with the 1913 statute. The Utah State Flag Concurrent Resolution (Utah State Legislature, 2011 General Session, H.C.R. 2 Enrolled) reaffirmed the 1913 statute and encouraged that state flags be manufactured according to the law.
