None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to prohibit the use of lead ammunition or tackle on Federal land or water that is made available for hunting or fishing activities or to issue regulations relating to the level of lead in ammunition or tackle to be used on Federal land or water, unless— the Secretary of the Interior determines that a decline in wildlife population on the specific unit of Federal land or water is primarily caused by the use of lead in ammunition or tackle, based on field data from the specific unit of Federal land or water; and the prohibition or regulation, as applicable, is— consistent with— the law of the State in which the specific unit of Federal land or water is located; or an applicable policy of the fish and wildlife department of the State in which the specific unit of Federal land or water is located; or approved by the fish and wildlife department of the State in which the specific unit of Federal land or water is located.
In any case in which the Secretary of the Interior determines under subsection
(a)that there is a wildlife population decline on a specific unit of Federal land or water that warrants a prohibition on or regulation relating to the level of lead in ammunition or tackle, the Secretary shall include in a Federal Register notice an explanation of how the prohibition or regulation, as applicable, meets the requirements of this section.
