SB 5612: Natural resources cons areas

Changing provisions relating to natural resources conservation areas.

Summary

  • Low-impact public uses are authorized within Natural Resources Conservation Areas (NRCA) and are defined as recreational uses that do not adversely affect resource values, are appropriate to maintaining a natural setting, and that do not detract from long-term ecological processes. Prior to establishing the boundary of a NRCA, a public hearing must be held in the county where the majority of the land is located.
