In accordance with AS 38.05.850, the Division of Mining, Land and Water (DMLW) has issued a decision to issue a private, non-exclusive easement to Roger Schnabel (doing business as Highland Estates Inc.) for a 25-year term. The easement authorizes the use of approximately 0.45 acres of State land for the construction of a road, placement of utility lines, and completion of a DMLW-approved survey in the state-owned uplands of the Haines State Forest near Mosquito Lake, approximately six miles northwest of Klukwan, AK within Section 10, Township 28 South, Range 55 East, Copper River Meridian.
An eligible person affected by this decision, and who provided timely written comment or public hearing testimony to the department, may appeal the decision to the DNR Commissioner per AS 44.37.011 and 11 AAC 02. Any appeal must be received within twenty (20) calendar days after issuance of this decision under 11 AAC 02.040.
