Section 11 AAC 85.205 - Reevaluation(a) Land designated as competitive or noncompetitive for coal leasing purposes will, in the commissioner's discretion, be closed for 30 days, by order of the commissioner, for reevaluation of the designation of the land. A closing order will state its effective date and that the results of the reevaluation will be announced on the 31st day after that date.(b) A decision not to reopen an area for noncompetitive leasing rejects any pending coal-prospecting permit application for that land. A rejected applicant will be notified of the reasons for rejection.(c) Notwithstanding 11 AAC 82.110, a coal-prospecting permit will be issued on a first-come-first-served basis in accordance with 11 AAC 85.110 if an application was filed before the closing order and if the land is reopened to noncompetitive leasing.Eff. 6/18/82, Register 82; am 9/28/86, Register 99Authority:AS 38.05.020
