DNR rule relating to public use of campgrounds and campsites in WV state parks, forests, and rail trails
SB 415 authorizes West Virginia's Division of Natural Resources (DNR) to implement and enforce specific rules for public camping. The bill formally approves a previously developed rule (58 CSR 32) that governs campground use in state parks and forests, as well as campsites on state rail trails. This rule sets standards for how visitors can access and use these facilities, including potential restrictions on occupancy, reservation systems, or facility maintenance. The policy directly affects state park visitors, campers, and recreational users of rail trails who rely on these public spaces.
