The Department of Natural Resource (DNR), Division of Mining, Land and Water (DMLW), Land Conveyance Section (LCS) has prepared a Preliminary Decision (PD) for a proposal to convey approximately 4.6 acres of state-owned tide and submerged land (herein 'tideland') to the City and Borough of Yakutat (CBY), under AS 38.05.825 Conveyance of Tide and Submerged Land to Municipalities. Located within DNR's Southeast Region, this tideland selection falls within the 1995 Yakataga Area Plan (Amended 1994), Unit 8b-5.
