(1)
All camps or fires shall be in designated campgrounds unless otherwise posted
at the check station, except that camping is allowed anywhere on National
Forest lands unless otherwise indicated or signed. U.S. Forest Service
regulations govern camping on WMAs located on National Forest lands. All
campers must comply with any conditions of use as posted or provided by the
site.
(2) Unless otherwise provided
through written permission by the Department, camping, or establishment of a
campsite, shall be limited to a period of time not to exceed 14 consecutive
days; after which the campsite shall be vacated and all personally owned
property or physical features of the camp removed for a period of not less than
7 days. During such 7-day period a new campsite may neither be established
within the boundaries of the same WMA nor within a 1-mile straight-line radius
of the vacated campsite on any other WMA by the same person(s).
(3) It is unlawful for any person to use any
musical instruments, radios, televisions, generators or other noise making
devices after 10:00 p.m. daily, in such a manner that such devices may be heard
by other WMA visitors. Nothing in this regulation shall be construed to prevent
use of medically needed devices or aids to disabled persons.
