Sec. 241.23  Taking of fish and wildlife.

    (a) The taking of fish and wildlife by hunting, trapping, or fishing 
from lands subject to the rules of this subpart is authorized in 
accordance with applicable State and Federal law.
    (b) To the extent consistent with the conservation of fish and 
wildlife and their habitat in accordance with recognized scientific 
management principles, local rural residents who depend upon the Chugach 
National Forest for subsistence needs shall continue to have the 
opportunity to engage in a subsistence way of life on the lands to which 
this subpart applies pursuant to applicable State and Federal law.
    (c) To the extent consistent with the conservation of fish and 
wildlife and their habitat, the continuation of existing uses and the 
future establishment and use of temporary campsites, tent, platforms, 
shelters, and other temporary facilities and equipment directly and 
necessarily related to the taking of fish and wildlife may be authorized 
in accordance with applicable law and regulations. However, the Forest 
Supervisor may restrict or prohibit facilities or uses in the Copper 
River-Rude River addition or Copper River-Bering River area if it is 
determined, after adequate notice to the affected parties, that the 
continuation of such facilities or uses would materially interfere with 
or adversely affect the conservation of fish and wildlife and their 
habitat.
