Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers on Federal Lands

Q: What are the main provisions?

Key points include: Prohibitions on lead ammunition and tackle on federal hunting and fishing lands are restricted. Federal authorities cannot issue blanket lead bans unless local data confirms a detrimental impact on wildlife populations. Any localized bans must align with state law and state fish and wildlife department policies.

New rules limit the ability to ban lead ammunition and tackle on federal hunting and fishing lands. Citizens can continue to use lead unless local data shows a decline in wildlife populations and the ban is agreed upon with the state. This aims to maintain current practices for hunters and anglers.
