What it does

2. That program is established, in part, to incentivize the opening of private lands to public hunting while providing grant funds to create, manage, and enhance wildlife habitat. The bill specifies that for land to be eligible under the habitat and public access program, the applicant’s land shall be located in this state and already contain wildlife habitat or the applicant shall be willing to allow development of wildlife habitat. The applicant must also enter into an agreement with the department and allow public access for hunting without charge on at least acres.
