BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1   (1) The legislature finds that there is an increasing demand for outdoor recreation opportunities and conservation measures on lands managed by the department of fish and wildlife, the department of natural resources, and the parks and recreation commission. Development and maintenance of outdoor recreation facilities and conservation of lands have not kept pace with this demand. This demand, combined with shrinking resources for management, has led to the degradation of our lands to the detriment of the recreating public and efforts to conserve our natural resources.
     (2) The legislature further finds that the recreating public cannot readily discern which agency of the state is responsible for the management of particular state lands or which policies apply to those lands.
     (3) It is the intent of this act to reform and improve access to and management of state lands on a sustainable basis for the recreating public by: Providing an integrated personal and vehicle access permit and access policies for state lands; recovering the cost incurred by the state for operations and management of recreation opportunities; providing resources to address the growing demand and impacts of outdoor recreationists and conservation of our natural resources; and providing effective education and enforcement of state land access policies.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 2   The definitions in this section apply throughout this chapter unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
     (1) "Agency" or "agencies" means the department of fish and wildlife, the department of natural resources, and the parks and recreation commission.
     (2) "Discover pass" means the annual pass created in section 3 of this act.
     (3) "Recreation site or lands" means those areas of state-owned or managed lands designated by an agency where the discover pass or day-use permit is required.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 3   (1) The discover pass is created as a renewable annual pass that is required at any recreation site or land pursuant to section 5 of this act.
     (2) Cost of the discover pass is thirty dollars per vehicle. The cost of the discover pass must be adjusted once every two years for inflation by the office of financial management.

     (4) Failure to display the discover pass or the day-use permit is a natural resource infraction under chapter 7.84 RCW. An agency is authorized to issue a notice of infraction to any person who fails to comply with this section.
     (5) The penalty for failure to comply with the discover pass or day-use permit requirements in this section is ninety-nine dollars. This penalty is reduced to fifty-nine dollars if an individual provides proof of purchase of the discover pass to the court within fifteen days after the issuance of the notice of violation.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 6   (1) The discover pass and day-use permit account is created in the state treasury. All moneys received from the sale of discover passes and day-use permits must be deposited into the account.

Sec. 7   RCW 4.24.210 and 2006 c 212 s 6 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (3) or (4) of this section, any public or private landowners or others in lawful possession and control of any lands whether designated resource, rural, or urban, or water areas or channels and lands adjacent to such areas or channels, who allow members of the public to use them for the purposes of outdoor recreation, which term includes, but is not limited to, the cutting, gathering, and removing of firewood by private persons for their personal use without purchasing the firewood from the landowner, hunting, fishing, camping, picnicking, swimming, hiking, bicycling, skateboarding or other nonmotorized wheel-based activities, hanggliding, paragliding, rock climbing, the riding of horses or other animals, clam digging, pleasure driving of off-road vehicles, snowmobiles, and other vehicles, boating, nature study, winter or water sports, viewing or enjoying historical, archaeological, scenic, or scientific sites, without charging a fee of any kind therefor, shall not be liable for unintentional injuries to such users.
     (2) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (3) or (4) of this section, any public or private landowner or others in lawful possession and control of any lands whether rural or urban, or water areas or channels and lands adjacent to such areas or channels, who offer or allow such land to be used for purposes of a fish or wildlife cooperative project, or allow access to such land for cleanup of litter or other solid waste, shall not be liable for unintentional injuries to any volunteer group or to any other users.

A fixed anchor used in rock climbing and put in place by someone other than a landowner is not a known dangerous artificial latent condition and a landowner under subsection (1) of this section shall not be liable for unintentional injuries resulting from the condition or use of such an anchor. Nothing in RCW 4.24.200 and this section limits or expands in any way the doctrine of attractive nuisance. Usage by members of the public, volunteer groups, or other users is permissive and does not support any claim of adverse possession.

For the purposes of this section, "reasonable costs" and "Washington state organ procurement organization" have the same meaning as in RCW 68.64.010.
     (3) ((The department shall collect from a vehicle owner who pays a vehicle license fee under RCW 46.17.350(1) (a), (d), (e), (g), (h), (j), (n), (o), or (q) or who registers a vehicle under RCW 46.16A.455 with a declared gross weight of ten thousand pounds or less a voluntary donation of five dollars.

Beginning with vehicle license fees that are due or will become due on or after the effective date of this section, a vehicle owner who registers a vehicle under this chapter may purchase a discover pass for a fee of thirty dollars, as may be adjusted for inflation under section 3 of this act. Purchase of the discover pass is voluntary and may be refused by the vehicle owner. The discover pass fee must be deposited in the discover pass and day-use permit account created in section 6 of this act.
