The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 69, aims to establish a separate, nonlapsing fund specifically designated for the maintenance of state trails by the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP). This initiative is intended to provide the necessary financial resources to ensure the upkeep and preservation of these trails, which are vital for public recreation and environmental conservation.

The bill introduces new legal language to the general statutes to create this fund, thereby enhancing the state's commitment to maintaining its natural resources. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text, indicating that this is a new provision aimed at improving trail maintenance efforts without altering existing regulations.
