Chapter 60 - Grazing Leases
11 AAC 60.080 - Non-use

(a) To maintain the land at its highest productive capacity, the director may, at any time during the life of the lease, when he deems it necessary, declare all or any part of the lease to be in non-use. The period of non-use may be for any specified length of time up to the expiration of the lease itself.

(b) The lessee shall be given written notice of a declaration of non-use, and the director shall adjust the lease rental to reflect any reduction in the leased area resulting from such declaration.

(c) The lessee may at any time during the life of the lease take non-use on any or all of the grazing lease to adjust or improve operations under the lease. He cannot take non-use, however, merely to hold a grazing lease.
