AI Summary
This bill establishes the Goshen Bay Waterfowl Management Area, designating specific surveyed and unsurveyed state-owned lands in Goshen Bay, Utah Lake, as a wildlife management area. The division, likely referring to a state wildlife agency, will manage this area to propagate and sustain various bird species and mammals, preserve natural functions and water flows for habitat, and provide recreational opportunities like hunting, fishing, trapping, and wildlife viewing, including public access for airboats and other small watercraft. The bill also amends the definition of "waterfowl management area" to include the newly established Goshen Bay Waterfowl Management Area alongside existing areas like Willard Spur and Bear River Bay, and it specifies an effective date of May 6, 2026.
