in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Creating the recreation area doesn't take away state or local power. States and local governments keep the right to enforce their civil and criminal laws there. They can also keep taxing non-federal property and businesses inside the recreation area.

This section protects state and local government power inside the recreation area. Nothing in this subchapter takes away a state's or local government's right to enforce its civil and criminal laws there, as long as that enforcement fits with this subchapter's other rules. Nothing in this subchapter takes away a state's or local government's right to tax people, corporations, franchises, or other property that the federal government doesn't own. This includes mineral rights and other interests in land or water within the recreation area.
