Absolutely Mark,

You can make all the laws you want to govern the recovery of meteorites in America, but without the means to enforce this, it is a toothless legislation.

As it is now, they can't keep the border sealed, so I doubt most feds in those districts care because they have bigger worries. They can't keep people from dumping trash and abandoning vehicles. So what is the harm of digging a few meteorites (especially when most enthusiasts are eager to help in the progress of meteoritics)?
