Public Access Easement

Snowshoe Street Gravel Road, Glennallen

Proposed Project and Location:

In accordance with AS 38.05.850, the Department of Natural Resources, Division of Mining, Land and Water, Southcentral Regional Office is considering the issuance of a Public Access Easement to perfect the status of an existing public use gravel road along its route over two leased parcels of DNR-DMLW managed land in Glennallen. The project site is the southern segment of Snowshoe Street within affected portions of Section 23, Township 4 North, Range 2 West, Copper River Meridian. This action will standardize and clarify the length and width of the previously un-surveyed road easement area and ensure its reservation for public access purposes. No new construction is currently planned. The proposed easement is 1,052.94 feet long and 60 feet wide for an overall area of 1.45 acres, more or less. Please see attachments for additional location information. Nothing herein implies the establishment of an easement across non-DMLW managed lands, even if such properties are depicted on project-related maps, plans or drawings.
