Boaters and anglers would get easier access to federal waterway rules online.
This bill would make it easier for people to find information about federal waterways. Federal agencies would put all rules, access points, and fishing restrictions online in one place. This means clearer, up-to-date maps for anyone wanting to boat, fish, or swim.
Today, finding consistent, up-to-date information about federal waterway rules, access points, and fishing restrictions can be difficult because it's spread across different agencies and not always in a unified online format. If this bill becomes law, federal agencies would be required to standardize this data and make it all available online in easy-to-use digital maps, including real-time updates for fishing rules, within five years. This bill would focus on data publication and standardization, and would not change existing access rules, definitions of navigable waters, or agency jurisdiction over waterways or fisheries.
