Requires the Department of Fish and Wildlife to relocate the Bob Oke game farm in Lewis County to an alternate location within 36 months, due to nitrate contamination of private drinking water wells in the Fords Prairie area from pheasant manure

Mandates a joint relocation report to the governor and legislature by December 31, 2026, identifying a preferred alternate site, acquisition strategy, transition schedule, and estimated capital and operating costs

Requires hydrogeologic assessments of candidate relocation sites to ensure no risk of contaminating municipal or residential drinking water supplies, with priority given to existing state-owned properties
