DURRANT, Associate Chief Justice:
INTRODUCTION
1 This case concerns an exchange of land held by the School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA®) for land owned by Garfield County. The SITLA Director formally approved the exchange, and his decision was challenged by the National Parks Conservation Association and William Wolverton (collectively, NPCA) before the SITLA Board of Trustees (the SITLA Board or the Board). The SITLA Board ruled against NPCA and upheld the Directors decision. NPCA appeals the Boards ruling. Because we conclude that the exchange was consistent with SITLAs obligations as trustee over school trust lands, we affirm the Boards decision.
BACKGROUND
12 This case has its genesis in a land exchange, first proposed in 1987, between the State of Utah, then acting through SITLAs predecessor, the Division of State Lands and Forestry (the Division), and Garfield County. The land at issue is section 16 of Township 34 South, Range 8 East, which is found within the boundaries of Capitol Reef National Park. Section 16 was granted to the state by Congress in the Utah Enabling Act, on the condition that the state manage the land for the benefit of the public school system. This grant imposes trust obligations on the state, which the state has accepted and acknowledged in both the Utah Constitution and by statute. This appeal requires us to assess whether SITLAs decision to approve the exchange of section 16 is consistent with these obligations.
I. ORIGINS OF THE PROPOSED EXCHANGE AND THIS COURTS PRIOR DECISION IN NATIONAL PARKS CONSERVATION ASSOCIATION v. BOARD OF STATE LANDS
13 In 1987, Garfield County approached the Division with a proposal to acquire seetion 16 in exchange for three parcels of land owned by the County. Garfield County wanted to acquire section 16 so that it could pave a portion of the Burr Trail, which crossed the property. As part of its proposals, Garfield County submitted appraisals of both section 16 and each of the parcels that it offered in exchange. The Division relied on those appraisals in concluding that the exchange was fair and permissible under its trust obligations. On December 24, 1987, Governor Norman H. Bangerter executed a patent conveying section 16 to Garfield County.
T4 NPCA, which had attempted unsue-cessfully to intervene in the exchange proceedings, sought review by this court of the Divisions decision. NPCA challenged the Divisions ruling on a number of grounds, two of which are relevant for purposes of this appeal. First, NPCA contended that the Division had violated its fiduciary duties as trustee of the school trust lands by failing to give priority to scenic, aesthetic, and recreational values in its decision to exchange section 16. Second, NPCA argued that the Division breached its fiduciary duties by relying solely on appraisals commissioned by Garfield County to determine that the land exchange was fair to the school land trust.
15 In NPCA I, we affirmed the Divisions decision to base its assessment of the fairness of the exchange primarily on economic, rather than noneconomic, factors. But we also determined that the Division had breached its fiduciary duties by failing to commission an independent appraisal of the land values to determine whether the exchange was fair to the school land trust. We stated,
For a trustee to rely on appraisals submitted by a purchaser of trust assets is to leave the trust subject to sharp dealing on the part of the purchaser. For that reason, we hold that a breach of trust occurs when a trustee uses an appraisal submitted by the purchaser as the basis for ascertaining the fair market value of a trust asset. To comply with its fiduciary duties, the Division itself must obtain the appraisals on which it bases its decision.
Accordingly, we stayed the pending exchange and remanded the case back to the Divigion for a determination of whether the appraised values of section 16 and the Garfield County lands offered in exchange represent the full value of those lands.
IL THE CURRENT DISPUTE
T6 Shortly after our decision in NPCA I, the legislature enacted the School and Institutional Trust Lands Management Act, which replaced the Division with SITLA. Perhaps as a result of confusion surrounding this transfer of responsibilities, the independent appraisal and valuation mandated in NPCA I never occurred. The stay we imposed on the exchange of section 16 thus remained in effect.
T7 Sometime in 2005, after receiving a third-party request to purchase certain of the lands exchanged by Garfield County for seetion 16, SITLA realized that neither it nor the Division had ever obtained the independent appraisal required to complete the exchange. Accordingly, it commissioned Stanford S. MecConkie of Morley & MeConkie, L.C., to conduct an appraisal of section 16 and the lands offered by Garfield County in exchange (the MeConkie Appraisal). The McConkie Appraisal stated that section 16 was worth $200,000, while the total value of the lands offered by Garfield County in exchange was $661,200.
8 NPCA questioned the reliability of the McCodnkie Appraisal and commissioned a review of the appraisal by J. Philip Cook and Virginia H. Hylton (the Cook Review). Although the Cook Review determined that the McConkie Appraisal complied with the Uniform Standards for Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), it proffered a higher estimate of section 16s value, based on a different view of the propertys highest and best use. NPCA also asserted that because the McConkie Appraisal was a limited restricted use appraisal report (a limited appraisal), it was inadequate to assess the actual values of the parcels involved in the exchange.
{9 On September 15, 2006, the SITLA Director formally determined that, according to the McConkie Appraisal and SITLAs own review, the school lands trust had received full value in exchange for section 16. Accordingly, the SITLA Director approved the exchange. NPCA timely appealed the Directors decision to the SITLA Board.
110 In its petition for review of the Directors approval of the exchange, NPCA argued that (1) SITLA had improperly declined to consider the conflict between economic development and the protection of section 16s unique seenic, paleontological, and archaeological value; (2) the Directors approval of the exchange violated applicable law because section 16 constituted inadequate consideration for the lands Garfield County conveyed in exchange; and (8) the MeConkie Appraisal did not satisfy the dictates of our remand in NPCA I because it was a limited appraisal rather than a full narrative appraisal and was methodologically flawed in other respects.
T11 The Board first determined, on two separate grounds, that it lacked jurisdiction to consider NPCAs contention that the exchange of section 16 was invalid because Garfield County received inadequate consideration. First, the Board reasoned that consideration of the issue was beyond the seope of our remand in NPCA I, which the Board concluded was limited to determination of the adequacy of compensation to the school trust. Second, the Board found that the legislature ha[d] not given [the] Board the authority to adjudicate whether Garfield County exceeded its powers by conveying lands for purportedly inadequate consideration.
12 Next, the Board determined that the MeConkie Appraisal was adequate to satisfy SITLAs fiduciary obligations as outlined in NPCA I. According to the Board, this courts directive was for an independent review of valuation, which was accomplished. The Board also determined that the McConkie Appraisal, even though it was a limited appraisal, was nonetheless adequate because it was undisputed that it complied with all professional surveying requirements for limited appraisals. In regard to NPCAs arguments that the McConkie Appraisal was methodologically flawed, the Board found that, under NPCA I and our prior decision in Terracor v. Utah Board of State Lands & Forestry, third parties do not have standing to challenge executive branch real property transactions.
113 Finally, the Board also rejected NPCAs argument that SITLA breached its fiduciary duties by declining to reject the exchange based on section 16s unique non-economic value. The SITLA Board stated that NPCA ha[d] completely misconstrued the obligation placed on SITLA in NPCA I, and that it required consideration of noneco-nomic values only in some cases. The Board also determined that NPCAs arguments on this issue were barred by principles of res judicata because this court had determined, in NPCA I, that the Division had in fact adequately considered aesthetic and recreational values in deciding to exchange section 16 and had also appropriately declined to give such values priority over economic considerations.
114 Accordingly, the Board ruled that NPCA had failed to establish that the Directors approval of the section 16 exchange was unlawful and dismissed NPCAs appeal. NPCA timely filed a petition for review of final ageney action with this court. We have jurisdiction pursuant to section 78A-3-102(8)(e){iii) of the Utah Code.
STANDARD OF REVIEW
115 In reviewing a final action of the SITLA Board in a formal adjudicative proceeding, we grant relief only when the person seeking judicial review has been substantially prejudiced by, among other things, the agencys erroneous interpretation or application of the law. A person is substantially prejudiced when the agencys erroneous interpretation or application is not harmless. We review that agencys interpretation or application of the law for correctness.
ANALYSIS
116 We begin by discussing whether NPCA has standing to challenge the SITLA Boards determinations. Concluding that it does, we next turn to the issue of whether the SITLA Board erred in finding that it lacked jurisdiction to invalidate the exchange on the ground that Garfield County received inadequate consideration. We determine that the Board did not err. Finally, we address whether the STTLA Board correctly found that the Directors reliance on the McConkie Appraisal was consistent with SITLAs trust obligations. We affirm the Board on that ground as well. In light of these determinations, we do not reach the parties arguments regarding the seope of our remand in NPCA I or the extent to which NPCAs challenges may be barred by res judicata.
I. NPCA HAS STANDING TO CHALLENGE THE ADEQUACY OF THE MCCONKIE APPRAISAL
{17 We first determine whether NPCA has standing to raise its challenges to the SITLA Directors decision to proceed with the exchange of section 16. On appeal, NPCA raises two challenges to the Directors decision. First, it asserts that the exchange is invalid because SITLA violated its trust obligations by approving the exchange of seetion 16 even though section 16 constituted inadequate consideration for the lands Garfield County conveyed in exchange. Second, it challenges whether the McConkie Appraisal satisfies the requirements of our NPCA I remand. We must determine whether NPCA has standing to bring each of these challenges.
1 18 We have recognized that parties may obtain standing under either the traditional or an alternative test." In NPCA I, we analyzed NPCAs standing solely under the alternative test, which requires that a party prove that it is an appropriate party to raise an issue of significant public importance. We concluded that NPCAs challenges to the exchange of section 16 raised issues of great public importance regarding the administration of school trust lands and that NPCA, based on its interest and expertise, was an appropriate party to present these issues for judicial resolution. Because this case grows out of our decision in NPCA I and challenges the same conveyance for which we found alternative standing in that case, we see no reason why our determination that NPCA had standing to challenge the exchange of section 16 in NPCA I does not apply to its challenges in this case.
{19 SITLA argues that the issue of public importance justifying our finding of alternative standing in NPCA I is not implicated by NPCAs challenges in this case. Specifically, SITTLA contends that the sole issue justifying alternative standing in NPCA I was whether the state was required to give priority to unique scenic, recreational, archaeological, and paleontological values in administering school trust lands. SITLA asserts that this court, in NPCA I, fully resolved the policy issues before it and therefore no such significant policy issues are present on remand.
€ 20 We disagree. In NPCA I, we reached the merits of NPCAs claims that SITLA breached its fiduciary duties by approving the exchange based on an unreliable appraisal. And although NPCAs claims in this case are somewhat refined given our resolution of NPCA I, the essence of NPCAs challenges in this case is the same. Accordingly, our grant of standing in NPCA I is fully determinative of the standing issue in this case. We now turn to the merits of NPCAs claims.
II SITLA DID NOT BREACH ITS FIDUCIARY DUTIES BY APPROVING THE EXCHANGE OF SECTION 16
121 NPCA argues that the SITLA Board should have reversed the Directors decision on two separate grounds: (1) SITLA breached its duty to ensure that trust lands are managed according to applicable law by approving a transaction that resulted in Garfield County receiving inadequate consideration, and (2) SITLA breached its duty to base its exchange decision on a reliable appraisal by relying on the McConkie Appraisal to approve the exchange. We affirm the Boards determinations that (1) the SITLA Board was without jurisdiction to invalidate the exchange based on the amount of consideration received by Garfield County and (2) the MceConkie Appraisal is not per se unreliable simply because it is a limited appraisal.
A. The SITLA Board Correctly Deternined That It Lacked Jurisdiction to Invalidate the Exchange of Section 16 on the Ground That Garfield County Received Insufficient Consideration
122 NPCA contends that the STTLA Board should have found that the Directors decision to approve the exchange of section 16 violated SITTLAs fiduciary duties because it was not in accordance with applicable law. Section 58C-1-804(4)(a) of the Utah Code provides that the Board, in reviewing a decision of the SITLA Director, should reverse the decision only when it finds, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the decision violated applicable law, policy, or rules. NPCA claims that the exchange violated applicable law because section 16 constituted inadequate consideration for the lands Garfield County conveyed in exchange.
123 We determine that the SITLA Boards jurisdiction extends only to ensuring that STTLA complied with its own statutory and fiduciary duties. As a result, we conclude that because SITLA was under no duty to ensure that Garfield County obtained adequate consideration in the exchange, the SIT-LA Board correctly determined that it had no jurisdiction to invalidate the exchange of section 16 on this ground. -
$24 As a statutorily created body of limited jurisdiction, the SITLA Board may rule only on issues over which it has been granted subject matter jurisdiction by the legislature. And, according to statute, the Boards authority as an adjudicative body is limited to reviewing the actions of SITLA and its director regarding the management of the school trust lands in order to ensure that those decisions are consistent with applicable law. In other words, the Board exists to ensure that the school trust lands are managed in accordance with the constitutional, statutory, and fiduciary duties imposed on SITLA by virtue of its position as trustee.
25 These duties do not include monitoring whether Garfield County received adequate consideration. Instead, SITLA is obligated, according to general trust law, to manage the trust lands in the interests of the beneficiaries-the public school system and its students. Statutorily, SITLA is required to manage the trust lands in the manner ... most favorable to the beneficiaries and is charged with maintain[ing] the integrity of the trust and prevent[ing], through prudent management, the misapplication of its lands and revenues. None of the laws governing SITLA impose a duty to monitor the actions of. third parties for compliance with those parties own separate legal duties. SITLAs fiduciary responsibilities run to the school lands trust and its beneficiaries, not to third parties such as Garfield County.
1 26 NPCA argues that the SITLA Boards authority to reverse a decision of the SITLA Director that violates applicable law, policy, or rules authorizes the Board to determine, in this case, whether Garfield County received adequate consideration. This argument presumes that the statutory provision confers authority on the SITLA Board to examine and rule on the legality of all aspects of the action approved by the SITLA Director. In other words, NPCA proposes that the authority to make general determinations regarding the legality of the exchange between SITLA and Garfield County is part and parcel of the SITLA Boards mandate to determine whether the SITLA Directors decision conformed to applicable law.
1 27 This reading stretches the statute too far, essentially converting the SITLA Board into a court that passes judgment on the action of involved third parties under the guise of reviewing the actions of SITLA and its Director. Although the statute creating the SITLA Board charges it with the responsibility of ensuring that SITLA is managed according to law, the clear intent of the statutory provisions defining the STTLA Boards purpose and authority is to enable the Board to determine whether the Director is managing SITLA in accordance with its fiduciary and statutory obligations. Accordingly, the scope of the Boards authority to review SITLAs actions is limited to decision[s] of the director or the administration. And the SITLA Directors decision to approve a transaction is distinct from the separate decision of a third party-such as Garfield County in this case-to enter into a transaction with SITLA.
128 Thus, the Board is not authorized to pass judgment on whether third parties have fulfilled their own independent legal responsibilities because the Boards review authority only extends to actions taken by STTLA or its Director. It is up to Garfield County, not SITLA, to ensure that its actions comport with its legal obligations. Since there is no duty on the part of STITLA or its Director to ensure that Garfield County has been adequately compensated, the Board is not the appropriate decision-making body to assess the legality of Garfield Countys actions. Accordingly, we affirm the SITLA Boards determination that it lacked jurisdiction to invalidate, based on the amount of consideration received by Garfield County, SITLAs decision to approve the exchange of section 16.
B. The MceConkie Appraisal Is Not Unreliable Simply Because It Is a Limited Appraisal
129 NPCA also argues that STTLA wrongfully relied on the MeConkie Appraisal because the McConkie Appraisal is unreliable given that it is a limited appraisal rather than a full narrative appraisal. Noting that limited appraisals are based on undisclosed agreements with the client that allow for certain departures from normal required appraisal procedures, NPCA contends that these departures impact the ultimate valuation and make it impossible for third parties (who are not privy to the agreement between the appraiser and the client) to evaluate the correctness of the appraisals conclusions.
{30 We reject NPCAs suggestion that SITLA can never use limited appraisals as a basis for its management decisions over school trust lands. While it is true that, in NPCA I, we acknowledged that the Division had a duty to obtain reliable appraisals, our conclusion that nonindependent appraisals were per se unreliable was based on our determination that a nonindependent appraisal was suspect on its face because of the incentive and opportunity of the interested party to shop for favorable appraisals. It was the suspect motive that made the reliance on nonindependent appraisals per se unreasonable.
131 This concern is absent when the appraisal, although limited in seope and purpose, is independently commissioned by SIT-LA. There is nothing inherently unreliable about limited appraisals. Such appraisals are obtained for a specific purpose, and, given the context in which they will be used, may not require the same panoply of procedures and considerations .that enable a full appraisal to be deemed reliable for all purposes. Therefore, because limited appraisals are not inherently unreliable, the decision to rely on such an appraisal in managing school trust lands is one that is within the discretion of SITLA, as trustee, to make.
132 We emphasize that SITLAs discretion to obtain and rely on a limited appraisal does not mean that its decision to do so is immune to challenge. If a third party suspects that a limited appraisal is inaccurate and therefore that a certain management decision based on that appraisal is not consistent with SITLAs obligations as trustee, it may challenge the transaction in the same way it would challenge a transaction based on the conclusions of a full narrative appraisal. Therefore, if the party can establish that (1) the limited appraisals valuation conclusions are erroneous and (2) STTLAs reliance on these erroneous conclusions fell below the standard of care imposed on it as trustee by law, then the action by SITLA should be set aside as a breach of trust. We simply make clear that a party challenging SITLAs actions is not entitled to have the actions set aside solely because SITTLA took those actions in reliance on a limited appraisal.
(83 In this case, NPCA has pointed to statements in both the Cook Review and the original MeConkie Appraisal that suggest the McConkie Appraisals valuation of section 16 may be inaccurate. But NPCA only argues that the MeConkie Appraisal overvalues seetion 16. In other words, NPCA contends that, had the MceConkie Appraisal valued seetion 16 correctly, it would have revealed that SITLA obtained an even better bargain for the school trust. j
4 34 Therefore, even if NPCA is correct in concluding that the MeConkie Appraisal was technically defective, it acknowledges that section 16s value is no greater than $200,000, or more than three times less than the value of the lands that SITLA received in exchange. In light of our holding that the inadequacy of consideration received by Garfield County provides no basis for the STTLA Board to set aside the exchange, the errors that NPCA alleges occurred with the McConkie Appraisal-even i#f true-fail to show that the SITLA Directors decision was in breach of SITLAs trust obligations. Accordingly, we decline to reach NPCAs specific arguments regarding the flaws in the McConkie Appraisal and affirm the SITLA Boards determination that the Directors decision was consistent with SITLAs fiduciary duties as trustee.
CONCLUSION
[ 35 We hold that NPCA has standing to challenge the SITLA Directors decision to exchange section 16. But we conclude that the STTLA Board correctly determined that SITLAs approval of the exchange of section 16 was consistent with its trust obligations. Accordingly, we affirm the Boards dismissal of NPCAs appeal.

The Board ruled against NPCA on this issue and NPCA seems to have abandoned that version of its argument on appeal. NPCA no longer argues that the exchange should be reversed because of SITLAs inadequate consideration of section 16s noneconomic attributes. Instead, it bases its argument for reversing the exchange on the other grounds addressed in our opinion and mentions consideration of noneco-nomic factors only as an alternative management strategy for section 16 that NPCA believes would be consistent with SITLAs trust obligations. Because we affirm the Boards findings that the exchange was lawful, we do not reach this issue.

. Even though limited appraisals are based on undisclosed agreements with the client regarding (1) the purpose of the appraisal and (2) the allowed departures from normal professional surveying standards, this does not prevent the party from being able to assess the limited appraisals reliability. The challenging party is always free to perform its own independent appraisal review (as NPCA did here) or to obtain, through discovery, the actual agreement between SITLA and the appraiser that sets forth the purpose and specific limitations of the appraisal.
