Sec. 19.30.020. - Purpose. - Alaska Statutes

The purpose of AS 19.30.020 - 19.30.051 is to facilitate the commercial development of mineral resources, except oil and gas, by authorizing funds to participate in construction of developmental access roads into areas where mining prospects of valid commercial promise are inaccessible to truck haulage. These access roads are to be constructed as rudimentary truck roads and to standards that can be readily improved for general public use. It is the intent of the state to participate with mineral resource developers up to 50 percent for the cost of construction and maintenance of developmental access roads under AS 19.30.020 - 19.30.051.
