Relates to the creation of an ATV recreation fund and the use of ATVs

This bill creates an ATV Recreation Fund to support environmentally sustainable trails across state, municipal, and private lands. It requires ATV registration for public land use, mandates owner liability for negligence, and directs fees to fund trail maintenance (45%), motorized access for people with disabilities (45%), and enforcement/education (10%). The fund also establishes rules for trail design, signage, and minimizing environmental impact while preserving existing trails. It directly affects ATV owners, land managers, and disability access programs through new registration rules and dedicated funding.
