Bill overview
This bill seeks to clarify and potentially expand public access to recreational activities on private tidelands in Massachusetts.

It intends to balance recreational opportunities with the rights of landowners, ensuring reasonable access to the state’s coastal resources. The bill is currently in the legislative process and has been subject to hearings.
