11 AAC 95.200 - Land use conversion
(a) The requirements of
11 AAC 95.260 -
11 AAC 95.390 do not apply if a
landowner intends to convert forest land to another use within five years after
timber harvest and the land is converted or in the process of conversion within
five years.
(b) If, five years
after timber harvest, the land is not converted or actively in the process of
conversion, a landowner shall meet the reforestation requirements of
11 AAC 95.375 -
11 AAC 95.390 within three
years.
(c) If, as part of a land
use conversion, a landowner intends to begin a commercial forest operation
subject to
11 AAC 95.190, the following
notification provisions apply:
(1) if the land
use conversion is within a borough or municipality and the borough or
municipality has granted a plat approval, a building permit, or other
authorization for that specific land use, the operator is not required to
notify the division; zoning of the land does not constitute an
authorization;
(2) if the land
conversion has not been authorized by a borough or municipality, the landowner
shall notify the division before beginning the operation.
(d) If the division finds that a forest
landowner has provided false information about the owner's intention to convert
forest land as stated in the notice under (c)(2) of this section, the division
will, in its discretion, require full compliance with AS 41.17.
