* UPDATE ON ADAM’S CONSERVATION INVESTIGATION
There have been several reports made to the Lucas County Sheriff’s
Department over the past few months regarding bullets coming onto homeowner’s
property in Hidden Harbour. There is speculation that these bullets may be
coming from Adam’s Conservation. After receiving reports of this nature, the
Lucas County Sheriff’s Department began investigating the matter and did visit
Adam’s Conservation and temporarily shut down one of the ranges.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) has jurisdiction over a matter
such as this and came out to inspect the range in question to address some
safety concerns. Upon their inspection, ODNR made the following two
recommendations:
1. To lower the overhang in order to reduce the
sky limit on the rifle range
2. To install ammunition catchers on top of the
hill.
In making these recommendations, the ODNR takes into consideration the National
Association of Shooting Ranges guidelines as well as the National Rifle
Association Range Sourcebook.
Please remember that these are recommendations that were made and that Adam’s
Conservation cannot be found in violation for not following these
recommendations. However, Adam’s Conservation has been cooperative in this
investigation and has indicated that they are planning on making the recommended
changes.
If you have additional questions regarding this investigation please contact
Major Ron Keil at the Lucas County Sheriff’s Department.
