Establishes standards for closing segments of the Empire State Trail and requires notice to the public.

The bill amends the parks, recreation, and historic preservation law to mandate the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to set standards for closing segments of the Empire State Trail. It requires the owner of any closed trail segment to notify the office, which must then coordinate with the owner to plan a detour route and post signage. The bill also requires the office to post information about trail closures and detour routes on its website. The act would take effect 180 days after becoming law.
