Summary

The bill directs the Department of Natural Resources to set fees for public use of state forest land and to ensure that at least 10% of those forests are 100 years or older and another 10% are 20 years or younger. It also keeps money in the state forestry fund separate from the general fund and limits the liability of landowners toward recreational users. The measure would affect state‑owned forest lands, private forest owners who seek state advice, and anyone using the forests for recreation.
