Environmental Issues
Since 1990, many outdoor public ranges in Government-owned facilities and parks in the United States have been temporarily closed due to concerns over lead contamination and ground water contamination. Many were poorly designed and lack the Surface Danger Zones required for safe operation. Though they might have existed in this form for many years, encroachment from residential and commercial growth along property lines have increased concerns over safety. Privately owned facilities have largely gone unbothered by recent regulatory changes. Gun politics issues are a concern for shooting enthusiasts, who feel that their access to public shooting ranges is being infringed.
