H.Amdt1005	Pass	An amendment numbered 1 printed in House Report 112-444 to add shooting ranges to the list of valid uses of public land and clarifies the term "wilderness areas" by adding "including Wilderness Areas, Wilderness Study Areas, or lands administratively classified as wilderness eligible or suitable and primitive or semi-primitive areas." Amendment states that the protection given to hunting in wilderness areas is not intended to permit motorized recreation or mineral extraction and reduces the reporting requirements. Amendment addresses technical conflicts between Title I and Title II over certain Bureau of Land Management land and would make several technical changes.
H.Amdt1006	Fail	An amendment numbered 2 printed in House Report 112-444 to make a technical correction to clarify that all units of the National Park System, not just National Parks and National Monuments, are exempt from Title I.

H.Amdt1007	Fail	An amendment numbered 3 printed in House Report 112-444 to make the new restrictions on managing hunting, fishing and recreational shooting effective only if the amount of land available for those purposes falls below 75% of all federal public lands.
