SURFACE USE LICENSE

SURFACE USE LICENSE. It is the policy of the Commission in response to a request for access from an individual - where the request is made to allow the individual to access his or her property that is contiguous, or otherwise closely situated, to the state lands - to grant that individual a surface use license, where appropriate, that will inure to the benefit of the requestor/grantee only. Any such surface use license shall be specific to the grantee and shall not run with the land. Any surface use license for access shall terminate upon the grantee's death, conveyance of the property to a subsequent grantee or the occurrence of any other event which would make the continuance of the surface use license no longer feasible.
