What it means
Lets the state Department of Fish and Game buy or take the Dalton town forest from the town of Dalton for $100,000, to protect fish and wildlife habitat and for passive recreation. The Inspector General must review the department's appraisal of the land and report to legislative committees. Dalton and the department will split the costs as they agree. Takes effect on passage.
