Universal Citation: AR Admin Rules 002.00.07-014

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 2, February 2024

Code Revision of the 1998 Land Use Policy

Current regulation: Refer to current land use policy.

Revision of the AGFC Land Use Policy has been an on-going project for several years. Fisheries and enforcement has cooperatively worked together to revise this policy providing more clarity and making needed changes. Some of the more substantive changes include fee increases, change in dimensions of fishing pier and boathouse plans and specifications, addition of registration stickers and metal placards, ability to deny public access to the structures, ability for waterfront landowners to utilize the lake for irrigation and a revision of allowable practices.
