The Department of Environmental Protection is given the responsibility, authority, and power to develop and execute a comprehensive multipurpose outdoor recreation plan for this state with the cooperation of other government entities. The purpose of the plan is to document recreational supply and demand, describe current recreational opportunities, estimate the need for additional recreational opportunities, and propose means for meeting identified needs. The plan shall describe statewide recreational needs, opportunities, and potential opportunities. Further, to protect and manage Florida’s wildlife environment on lands conveyed for recreational purposes by private owners and public custodians, the Act intends that the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission shall regulate motor vehicle access and traffic control on Florida’s public lands. The Act further provides for procedures for land acquisition and special trust fund created for this purpose. Notably, it states that no land shall be purchased under this act or any funds expended for any project unless a finding is made that recreation is the prime purpose of the purchase or of the project.
