 AN ACT to amend the parks, recreation and historic preservation law, the
   vehicle  and traffic law and the state finance law, in relation to the
   creation of an ATV trail fund

   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1.  Legislative intent and purpose. In order to best organize
 and sustain an environmentally sensitive statewide system of trails  for
 all  terrain vehicles, the legislature hereby creates an ATV trail fund.
 The control and supervision of the trail fund shall be maintained by the
 office of parks, recreation and historic preservation upon  consultation
 with  the  department  of  environmental conservation. The trail fund is
 created for the purpose of  designating  state,  municipal  and  private
 lands as part of a statewide network of ATV trails. Fees obtained by the
 office  of  parks,  recreation and historic preservation for the mainte-
 nance of  the  trail  fund  shall  be  divided  between  administration,
 enforcement, education and remediation and maintenance, construction and
 development  of  the  statewide trail system.  It is the purpose of this
 act to promote the safe and proper  use  of  all  terrain  vehicles  for
 recreation  and  commerce  in  this  state  by encouraging their use and
 development, while minimizing detrimental effects of such use  upon  the
 environment.
   § 2. The title heading of title D of the parks, recreation and histor-
 ic  preservation  law  is  amended and a new article 26 is added to such
 title to read as follows:
                              SNOWMOBILES AND
                           ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLES
                                ARTICLE 26
                      ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLE TRAIL FUND
 SECTION 26.01 TRAIL PLAN.
         26.03 RULES AND REGULATIONS.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
