KRS 148.710: Preservation of natural vegetation, etc.

Within the exterior boundaries of the right -of-way, the natural vegetation shall be kept

undisturbed except for any clearing required for construction of the trail, occasional

vistas, or trail-use facilities described in KRS 148.750. The department shall m ake every

effort to avoid any use of the right -of-way that is incompatible with the purposes for

which the trails were established. Development and management of each segment of the

state trails system shall be designed to harmonize with and complement any established

multiple-use plans for that specific area in order to insure continual maximum benefits

from the land. Other uses along the trail which will not substantially interfere with the

nature and purposes of the trail may be permitted by the departme nt; provided, that the

owner of real property adjacent to any part of the system may hunt on that portion of the

system which is adjacent to his property.
