APPROVED: Monday, March 19th, 2018

(b) It is a defense to prosecution under | 27-21-106 for a violation of operating an all-terrain vehicle upon a public street or highway if the all-terrain vehicle operator can show by preponderance of the evidence that:
(1) The public street or highway was outside the city limits of any municipality or incorporated town in Arkansas.
(2) The public street or highway was not an interstate highway.

(B) His or her private property to an off-road trail (direct path from a private property to a trail head)

Section 2. Emergency Clause. It is found and determined by the General Assembly of the State of Arkansas that Arkansas offers and abundance of all-terrain vehicle parks and trails which attract nationwide ATV tourism to the state. That riding ATVs is one of the fastest growing recreational uses of the state's national forests. That there are small businesses that rely heavily on the ATV tourism, generated by the state's ATV parks and trails, and that the current restriction imposed by Acts 2017 No. 272, limiting the operation of an ATV upon a public street or highway is detrimental to the economic well-being of small businesses catering to ATV tourism and to the overall ATV tourism to the state. Therefore, and emergency is declared to exist, and this act being immediately necessary for preservation of the public peace, health, and safety shall become effective on:
(1) The date of its approval by the Governor
(2) If the bill is neither approved nor vetoed by the Governor, the expiration of the period of time during which the Governor may veto the bill
(3) If the bill is vetoed by the Governor and the veto is overridden, the date the last house overrides the veto.

We had rain all night, from 10:30 pm & it’s still raining! It’s been a while since we’ve enjoyed a consistent, general rainfall like this. That said, I feel like, maybe, hopefully Big Piney should/could come back up to a floatable level! It’s @ .48 on the USGS gauge right now. More rain forecasted for the next few days! Still low at this moment, usually takes 12 to 24 hours to see what it’s going to do. Stay tuned!
