[FONT="]DIRECTOR'S ORDER NO. 219
[/FONT][FONT="]FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE[/FONT]
[FONT="] [/FONT]
[FONT="]Subject:[/FONT][FONT="] USE OF NONTOXIC AMMUNITION AND FISHING TACKLE[/FONT]
[FONT="] [/FONT]
[FONT="]Sec. 1 What is the purpose of this Order?[/FONT][FONT="] The purpose of this Order is to establish procedures and a timeline for expanding the use of nontoxic ammunition and fishing tackle on Service lands, waters, and facilities and for certain types of hunting and fishing regulated by the Service outside of Service lands, waters, and facilities.[/FONT]
If you read into the order, they aren't referring only to National Parks and Federal Lands. They seem to be including any small bodies of water and seasonal streams that any local bureaucrat deems as threatened by lead contamination or contact or impact on game or fowl.
Obama signed off on this Director's Order as part of his Executive Orders on exit. Ostensibly, it's worded to promote non-toxic ammo and fishing tackle, in reality, it also means the elimination of lead for these purposes. This could really impact ammo prices and the use of existing supplies. All it would require is the for the "official" in your jurisdiction and bureaucrat's across the nation to decide that the puddle in your yard is eligible.
