AI Summary
This bill amends Section 58 of Chapter 131 of the General Laws to allow hunting with a bow and arrow from an elevated tree stand that is at least 250 feet away from any dwelling in use, except as authorized by the owner or occupant of the dwelling. This change provides an exception to the existing law, which generally prohibits hunting near dwellings without the owner's or occupant's permission.
