This grant is for identifying unreserved lands underlying navigable and non-navigable waters in Alaska. Its purpose is to clearly delineate federal versus state ownership of submerged lands, as established by the Equal Footing Doctrine and the Submerged Lands Act of 1953 at Alaska’s statehood. This information will provide greater certainty for both the United States, regarding federal ownership, and Alaskan residents, concerning state-owned lands. The resulting reports will be publicly available online, enabling individuals to easily identify the correct agency with jurisdictional authority. This clarity will significantly streamline obtaining proper permissions for various activities, including mining claims, sand and gravel extraction, land use authorizations, recreational permits, and energy development.

| Description: | The purpose of this project is to identify unreserved lands underlying navigable and non-navigable waters. Under the Equal Footing Doctrine and the Submerged Lands Act of 1953, the State of Alaska received title to those lands underlying navigable waters at the time of Alaska statehood. With this information, the United States will know with greater certainty what submerged lands remain in federal ownership and the residents of the State of Alaska will know what submerged lands were transferred to state ownership at the time of statehood. The reports processed by this project will be posted on the internet for use by anyone. By knowing the federal and state submerged land ownership patterns (including its boundaries), the public will be able to contact the correct agency with jurisdictional authority. With this information, the public and others users will be able to obtain the proper permissions, for items such as mining claims, sand and gravel extraction permits, land use authorizations, recreational permits, energy development, etc. |
