Natural resources: other; circumstances under which a conservation officer may enter private property; limit. Amends sec. 1602 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.1602) & adds sec. 1507.
SB 755 limits when conservation officers can enter private property without permission. It requires officers to have either the property owner’s consent, a court warrant, or specific circumstances (like observing distressed wildlife or responding to an immediate public safety threat). This directly affects landowners by restricting officer access and conservation officers by defining their entry protocols. The bill does not change existing powers for officers to search boats, vehicles, or equipment without warrants, as clarified in amended Section 1602.
