PUBLIC OUTDOOR TARGET RANGES – Amends and adds to existing law to establish provisions for the opening of the shotgun sporting complex adjacent to Farragut State Park.

This bill creates a new public shotgun sporting complex in north Idaho adjacent to Farragut State Park to replace the current skeet and trap range that may no longer have available land. The Idaho Fish and Game Commission is directed to develop a long-term plan for the new facility, which must include six trap and skeet fields, 15 sporting clay stations with 60 mechanical target throwers, and supporting infrastructure like a clubhouse and parking. The existing range in Kootenai County must continue operating while the new complex is built, with the department responsible for managing it if no private concessionaire is found. The new facility must open to the public by December 31, 2040, using federal Pittman-Robertson funds and state matching funds previously appropriated for this purpose.
