(1) Outfitting and commercial hunting activities on BMAs are not consistent with the intent of providing free public access to recreational opportunities on private lands. Outfitting may not take place on a BMA unless public recreation and hunting opportunities are not restricted and the cooperator and regional supervisor approve the activity. This rule does not regulate licensed outfitters legally operating on federal or state lands under license or permit obtained from the bureau of land management, forest service, DNRC or other resource management agency.
