The bill pertains to the Douglas State Forest Maintenance Trust Fund, established under M.G.L. Chapter 10, Section 35BBB. It mandates the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to provide an annual report detailing the financial activities of the fund, including expenditures and income. For FY25, the report indicates a beginning balance of $17,665.48, with an income of $8,244.00, resulting in a net balance of $28,313.48, and no expenses recorded for the fiscal year. The funds are allocated for public safety services provided by the Town of Douglas Fire and Police Departments at the Douglas State Forest.

The bill also includes provisions for a $1 surcharge on admission and parking fees at the Douglas State Forest, with the collected funds directed to the Maintenance Trust Fund. It ensures that any remaining balance in the fund at the end of the fiscal year does not revert to the General Fund but remains available for future expenditures. Additionally, it requires the DCR to meet annually with the town's board of selectmen to discuss the maintenance and safety plan for the forest, as well as the fund's balance and expenditures. An annual report summarizing the fund's activities must be submitted to legislative clerks and committees by December 31 each year.
