SEC. 2815. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON COORDINATION OF HUNTING,
FISHING, AND OTHER RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES ON
MILITARY LAND.
It is the sense of Congress that, in situations where
military lands are open to public access for hunting,
fishing, and other recreational activities, the Department of
Defense should seek to ensure that coordination with State
fish and wildlife managers, tribes, and local governments
occurs sufficiently in advance of traditional hunting,
fishing, and recreational use seasons to facilitate
communication with hunting, fishing, and recreational user
groups.
