Publicly Owned and Managed Lands or Waters Clause Samples

Publicly Owned and Managed Lands or Waters. The Parties understand that there are lands and waters within the geographic scope of Section 5(a) that are owned or managed by ODFW, or by other state or federal agencies or local governments, and that are closed to harvest or subject to other regulatory constraints on harvest related activities. The Tribe agrees that it will adopt Tribal regulations consistent with these harvest closures and other regulatory constraints on harvest related activities, unless the land owning or managing entity specifically agrees to the inconsistency. The ODFW owned or managed lands and waters that are closed to harvest or subject to other regulatory constraints on harvest related activities, and references to statutory or administrative regulations for each, are identified in Attachment B. The Parties agree that the Tribe may request access and opportunity for Tribal members, or changes to other aspects of the regulations, for hunting, fishing, trapping or gathering activities on any of these lands and waters that deviate from currently applicable regulation through the Tribe’s annual harvest proposal. ODFW commits to consider such proposals with the goal of providing the requested access and opportunity while preserving the conservation, management and safety objectives of the regulations applicable to the area(s).
