As used in § 21-10-28 , a significant threat to human life or private habitations exists, if shots or ricochets from a sport shooting range not infrequently strike or pass over private property which is frequented by persons or where a private habitation exists. A significant threat to human life or private habitations continues to exist unless or until shooting protocols are altered and enforced or the shooting range is redesigned so that shots or ricochets no longer strike or pass over private property as described in this section.
