No person on foot shall be denied access or egress over unimproved land to a great pond except that this provision shall not apply to access or egress over the land of a water company or a water district when the water from the great pond is utilized as a source for public water. [PL 1973, c. 530, §2 (NEW).] The Attorney General shall, upon complaint of a person being denied said access or egress, if in his judgment the public interest so requires, prosecute criminally or civilly any person who denies such right of access or egress.

[PL 1973, c. 530, §2 (NEW).] Whoever violates this section shall be punished by a fine of not more than $100 and by imprisonment for not more than 90 days. [PL 1973, c. 530, §2 (NEW).]
