Printed on recycled paper 
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: 
Sec. 1. 36 MRSA §S74-A, as amended by PL 1989, c. 508, §9, is 
repealed and the following enacted in its place: 
§574-A. 
Ineligibility 
1. 
Recreational lease. 
The Legislature finds that when the 
value of a recreational use lease exceeds the value of the tree 
growth that can be extracted on a sustained basis per acre as 
determined pursuant to section 576, then the land is no longer 
primarily used for the continuous growth of forest products. This 
finding is sufficient cause to remove from taxation under this 
subchapter those parcels that are more valuable in terms of 
recreation and are being leased on that basis. Notwithstanding 
section 573, this subchapter does not apply to any parcel of 
forest land that is leased for consideration to any individual or 
group of individuals to use for recreational purposes if that 
parcel of land exceeds 100 acres and if the consideration for 
that lease per acre exceeds the value of the growth that can be 
extracted on a sustained basis per acre as determined pursuant to 
section 576. 
The owner of the leased parcels shall submit a copy 
of the lease or leases on land subject to the provisions of this 
subsection to the State Tax Assessor for land in the unorganized 
territory 
and 
the 
municipal 
assessors 
in 
organized 
municipalities. The State Tax Assessor or the municipal assessor 
shall determine if the value of the lease exceeds the sustained 
growth value. 
If the value of the lease is determined to exceed 
the sustained growth value, the owner of the forest land has 60 
days from the date of notification to either terminate the lease, 
amend the lease to comply with this section or withdraw the land 
covered by the lease from the tree growth taxation under this 
subchapter. In the case of withdrawal, such action is subject to 
section 581 of this subchapter. 
2. 
Recreational access limited. 
A parcel of land to which 
public access for recreational use is limited or prohibited by 
the owner of that parcel is ineligible for taxation under this 
subchapter. 
SUMMARY 
This bill exempts 
from 
the 
Maine 
benefits a parcel of land to which public 
use is restricted or prohibited.

Fiscal Detail and Notes 
Decreasing the initial and renewal license fees for applicants who are deaf may result in a minor reduction in 
dedicated revenue to the Department of Professional and Financial Regulation. Increasing the cap for initial and 
renewal license fees from $300 to $325, except for applicants who are deaf, may increase the amount of dedicated 
revenues collected from licensing fees. The net impact on revenues to the Department of Professional and Financial 
Regulation as a result of this legislation can not be determined at this time and will depend on when, and if, initial and 
renewal license fees for all applicants, except those who are deaf, are increased.
