It's not, unless you configured it to.

You shouldn't remove the uucp user, something in the future might depend
on it being there. You can safely (and should) set the shell to
/sbin/nologin however. As for the binaries, feel free to delete them. If
you do a source upgrade, use the NOUUCP option from
/etc/defaults/make.conf, that'll make sure that they are not rebuilt.
Good luck,
Doug
