Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO LANDOWNER LIABILITY; LIMITING LIABILITY OF LANDOWNERS PERMITTING PERSONS TO EXPLORE CAVES ON PRIVATE PROPERTY.
AI Summary
This bill aims to limit the liability of landowners who permit individuals to explore caves on their private property without charge. It amends an existing law that addresses landowner liability for individuals granted permission to use private lands for various recreational activities, such as hunting, fishing, and camping. The bill specifies that landowners who allow cave exploration on their property without charge are not required to ensure the premises are safe, maintain a duty of care, or assume responsibility for any injuries or damages. However, the bill does not limit the liability of landowners who charge a fee for cave exploration or other recreational activities on their property.
