An Act relating to public notice requirements for museums and for certain state actions and public hearings; and providing for an effective date.
This bill, which was not enacted, would have updated how the state notifies people about water rights in Alaska. It requires the commissioner to publish notices on an online system and in local newspapers before setting deadlines for filing water appropriation claims. Additionally, it mandates that anyone selling, removing, or appropriating water must personally or by mail notify affected individuals, government agencies, and environmental departments. The bill also states that the person requesting these water actions would be responsible for paying the costs of publishing and sending these notices.
