S01799 Relates to the regulation of municipal shooting ranges, including limiting the hours of operation and addressing noise pollution; directs the department of health to conduct a study describing the contaminants and other pollutants in the ground and water bodies adjacent to certain shooting ranges.

Direction

Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds operational restrictions (hours, days, enclosure, noise limits) on municipal and law-enforcement shooting ranges and mandates environmental study/remediation planning for contaminants from those ranges; both provisions reduce the ability to freely own, operate or use firearms at such ranges. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
