DESCRIPTION

This act provides immunity from civil liability for certain landowners and injuries occurring therein.

The changes made to this substitute involved adding language to the definition of "trail" to mean any land which was acquired or utilized by the state for use as a public hiking, biking or recreation trail.

This act tightens the language involving the definition of "trail" namely, by whom and how such land is purchased and used.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
