You can take action on this alert by reading the information below and following the directions at the bottom.

Irresponsible ATV use is harming our private property and ruining our streams and rivers.

Current law allows rivers and streams to be used as highways for irresponsible ATV users to gain access to private property and as escape routes from arrest for the damage they cause.

Riding an ATV in a stream causes significant damage. Not only does it inconvenience property owners, it starts a chain reaction of environmental damage, major erosion problems and decreased water quality, which moves both upstream and downstream.

Irresponsible ATV use can:
impact private property;
degrade streambanks;
disturb streambeds; and
destroy fish spawn and habitat.

Although much of the damage occurs on private property, public property is often harmed as well. Public stream and river beds are being used as highways to trespass, and when law enforcement personnel arrive, irresponsible users are fleeing on those same public grounds.

House Bill 1070 provides a sensible solution to these problems by preventing trespassing, protecting rivers and streams and providing consequences for failure to abide by the law.
