Do I understand correctly that the ban on carrying in State Parks (May-Sept) has been repealed by LD 1347?
7. Exceptions. Notwithstanding subsection 6 or any other rule-making authority, the bureau may not adopt rules that prohibit the following persons from carrying a concealed handgun in the buildings or parts of buildings and other public property that are under the bureau’s jurisdiction:
A. A person to whom a valid permit to carry a concealed handgun has been issued under Title 25, chapter 252. The person must have in that person's possession the valid permit; [2013, c. 424, Pt. A, §4 (AMD).]

The above does not include Baxter State Park since it's governed by a separate agency, correct? Also, are State Parks CC only or does a permit allow OC as well?
Acadia:
To my understanding - OC banned, CC OK w/ Maine permit
Buildings containing Federal employees, e.g. ranger stations, visitor information centers, museums(?) are off-limits I assume, but what about any other places in the park such as restaurants?
It looks like things have changed a bit in the past couple years, so I'm having a hard time finding accurate and up-to-date info.
Any insight would be appreciated! It will help my visit to Maine go smoothly.
Thanks!
