I don't think it will be. Too many people want it closer to an airport with multiple daily flights to the D.C. area.
All the stories that I have read said it has been between downtown Denver and downtown Salt Lake City due to the proximity of the large airport.
Denver was mostly ruled out by most politicians and pundits because their airport is so far away from downtown Denver leaving downtown Salt Lake City the clear front runner for the BLM headquarters according to most national people.
So while Rob Bishop would probably like it to go in Ogden, the rest of the Committee, the Senate, the Interior Department and the BLM are looking at downtown Salt Lake City.
