Abstract

Addresses the environmental damage and caused by all-terrain vehicles, and their economic contribution to the community. It recommends methods of dealing with existing and potential problems related to their use. The first recommendation is to create a clearer and all-encompassing definition of utility vehicles, so subsequent policy can apply to all. These policies could include keeping to designated trails, requiring licenses, and implanting age restrictions. The final recommendation is to have maps created and available to trail users.
