Olga Lake Right-of-Way Certificate of Access
Katmai National Park & Preserve » Olga Lake Right-of-Way Certificate of Access » Document List
The main aspects of this project have not changed since the initial notification of the EA. The area where this right-of-way would be issued is located within designated wilderness. The issuance of a right-of-way to access inholdings is required by the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) and NPS regulation and policy. The right-of-way includes the following components:
• Construction of a 3.5 mile long off-road vehicle (ORV) trail connecting two privately owned inholdings within the park;
• The total right-of-way would be 7 feet wide and would result in impacts to approximately 3 acres of park lands; and,
• Six (6) pullouts would be required at roughly ½ mile intervals along the length of the trail to preserve the trail corridor and allow for passing vehicles.
Katmai welcomes feedback on this EA from our friends, neighbors, stakeholders, and other interested parties. The extension of the public comment period for this EA will begin on April 22, 2019 and extend through May 27, 2019.
