Creates and modifies provisions relating to federally managed lands within the borders of the state
HB 2905 establishes Missouri's control over federally managed lands within the state, requiring federal agencies to obtain state legislative consent before acquiring land or implementing new regulations. It mandates public hearings in affected counties for land changes, gives state law enforcement primary authority for resource enforcement, and prohibits federal officers from issuing citations for minor offenses without state coordination. The bill also requires federal agencies to share 70% of revenue from activities on these lands with Missouri for community projects, road improvements, and economic development, while asserting state jurisdiction over water, wildlife, and mineral rights. A state-federal dispute resolution board must mediate conflicts before new federal regulations take effect.
